Founder of the Weather Channel, John Coleman rebuts global warming:

"I do not oppose environmentalism. I do not oppose the political positions of either party. However, Global Warming, i.e. Climate Change, is not about environmentalism or politics. It is not a religion. It is not something you “believe in.” It is science; the science of meteorology. This is my field of life-long expertise.

I have read dozens of scientific papers. I have talked with numerous scientists. I have studied. I have thought about it. I know I am correct. There is no run away climate change. The impact of humans on climate is not catastrophic."

He says it is not catastrophic, not that we are not having an effect ?
and who advertises to pay for the weather channel ?
 
2 different groups spinner....

And no one wants to do anything at all that will be personally painful....

I dunno, what is your contention, that the Weather Channel is some nefarious hotbed agenda of untrustworthy neoconservatism?
It's the weather channel.
 
The Weather Channel is a commercial venture. It is there to make money not provide a public service.

and if major inputs of money threaten to cut off the money unless the tone is changed....
 
its funny b/c setting aside global warming going more green and reducing greenhouse gases would reduce deaths, reduce health issues such as asthma and help to reduce the growing stress put on our healthcare system. It would also increase the enjoyment of life on everyone, but i guess dano just likes to pollute and loves the idea of not shoveling in winter.

I seem to recall another person who was enjoying the warmer winter weather...busted!

There are many benefits to daily life with warmer weather:
- less road accidents and deaths from ice and limited eyesight
- less salt on roads to rust fancy German cars
- less cost/need for winter tires
- yes less shovelling, hard on people's backs (Rob think of your mom)
- less need and bother for expensive winter clothing
- less heating costs
- less cost in taxes for snow removal
- longer growing season
- less blizzards
- more enjoyable weather overall

All statistics show that even the most polluted outdoor air in America is far more healthy than the indoor air you are breathing now. Mold and dust are bad for asthma and they are indoors.
Warmer weather means more days you can open up the window and get fresher air.

What are you talking about?

When you appeal to authority (Heavyweight!!, founder of The Weather Channel!), it is perfectly appropriate to point out that the so-called authority isn't an authority at all but it merely a TV weatherman with a good business sense.

You work for a business, so do I, so does blackflag. Who the fuck cares?
The left loves to pretend that anyone who gets money from profit is not to be trusted. It just isn't so.

yeah you conveniently skipped over my rationale for this argument earlier in the thread...

Good business sense? The majority of Americans believe that human caused global warming is real. It wouldn't be a "great business deal" to alienate over half of the population.
