Exposing Deceit: A Greenpeace co-founder testified in Congress on Tuesday about
global warming. What he said is hardly what anyone would expect.
Patrick
Moore came off as a raving denier.
"There
is no scientific proof that human emissions of carbon dioxide are the dominant
cause of the minor warming of the Earth's atmosphere over the past 100
years," said Moore, who was testifying before the Senate Environment and
Public Works Committee's Subcommittee on Oversight.
"If
there were such a proof, it would be written down for all to see. No actual
proof, as it is understood in science, exists."
Moore
is somewhat famous for leaving Greenpeace, a large environmentalist
organization that grew from a small activist group he belonged to in 1971 while
earning his doctorate in ecology. He quit in 1986 because it had become too
political and strayed away from the science he believed was its institutional
strength.
Moore
didn't hold back in his Senate appearance. He quickly zeroed in on the United
Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and strongly scolded it for
claiming there is a "95-100% probability" that man "has been the
dominant cause of" global warming. Those numbers, he said, have been
invented.
He
also characterized the IPCC's reliance on computer models as futile; told
senators that history "fundamentally contradicts the certainty that
human-caused CO2 emissions are the main cause of global warming"; and
noted that "during the Greenhouse Ages," a period that precedes our
fossil-fuel burning civilization, "there was no ice on either pole and all
the land was tropical and subtropical from pole to pole."
Moore
further crossed the line of accepted climate change discourse when he insisted
"that a warmer temperature than today's would be far better than a cooler
one" and reminded lawmakers "that we are not capable, with our
limited knowledge, of predicting which way" temperatures "will go
next."
Current
Greenpeace members might think of Moore as a traitor. We'd say he's more of a
bold truth-teller.

We are fools if we allow another single day to go by
without demanding the end of UN Agenda 21 and its global warming hoax in the
U.S. Australia already did it, but had
to elect enough honest politicians to pull it off. We would be wise to do the same.
