Global Warming to Face Legal Challenge as a Fraud?

 

Meteorologist and founder of the Weather Channel, John Coleman, suggests suing proponents of global warming, including Al Gore and corporations that sell carbon credits, for fraud.

 

"Since we can't get a debate, I thought perhaps if we had a legal challenge and went into a court of law, where it was our scientists and their scientists, and all the legal proceedings with the discovery and all their documents from both sides and scientific testimony from both sides, we could finally get a good solid debate on the issue," Coleman said. "I'm confident that the advocates of 'no significant effect from carbon dioxide' would win the case."

Coleman claims that the mainstream media sensationalizes global warming for publicity value and self interests and buries the other side of the argument which suggests a lack of facts and evidence to support the proposed climate change.

 

"As you look at the atmosphere over the last 25 years, there's been perhaps a degree of warming, perhaps probably a whole lot less than that, and the last year has been so cold that that's been erased," said Coleman. "I think if we continue the cooling trend a couple of more years, the general public will at last begin to realize that they've been scammed on this global warming thing." Similarly, other scientists have noted that while recent global temperature has shown a slight increase, there is insufficient history to know whether a cycle exists whereby slight temperature increases are later offset by cycles of temperature decreases.

 

John Coleman has been a long-time skeptic of global warming and references carbon dioxide as a primary linchpin to his argument. "Does carbon dioxide cause a warming of the atmosphere? The proponents of global warming pin their whole piece on that," he said. However, Coleman cites that the compound carbon dioxide makes up only 38 out of every 100,000 particles in the atmosphere. "That's about twice as what there were in the atmosphere in the time we started burning fossil fuels, so it's gone up but it's still a tiny compound," Coleman said. "So how can that tiny trace compound have such a significant effect on temperature? "My position is it can't," he continued. "It doesn't, and the whole case for global warming is based on a fallacy."

  Influence The World


The world is smaller, more tightly integrated and more fluid. No country or citizen is immune from the successes or failures, triumphs or tragedies occurring throughout the world. When governments fail to act, it is left to the world's citizens to articulate vision, exhibit leadership, show direction and implement solutions. The Global Policies pondered and proposed on this site provide recommendations for such vision and implementation for a select few critical issues.
