Status: offline 		I think this is true just like global warming is true. And if it's correct this means the entire economy will have to change. Because of the increased transportation costs it will no longer make sense to import products from China. No matter how cheap their labor costs it will not compensate for the increased cost of transportation. And that means we have to start manufacturing products here again and that will reduce unemployment and improve the economy significantly.

The International Energy Agency is accused of underestimating when oil will run out.

I can see a railroad track outside my business window, a freight train rolls thru (coast to coast and in between, both directions every 12 minutes) the trailer size boxes all used to say hanjin now they all say j.b. hunt

.....ah, so the fact that the Maldives are going to be underwater in 100 years or so and that their government is setting aside money to buy a new homeland is mere liberal lies, designed to undermine your way of life?

How's that ostrich position treating you? Doesn't it make your back hurt?

Its more liberal lies to take control and to make Al Gore even richer. The evidence for any warming, much less AGW fades, and there has never been any credible evidence for AGW. If the tree ring methodology was good science when it supposedly supported global warming, it should still be good science. Here is the actual tree ring graph:

...nice duck. So, you originally suggest that no islands are going under water, and once i give you the actual name of an actual island that is, you switch to blathering on about tree rings. Nice.

On another thread you accused the highly respected Panda of having no credibility. Have you heard of transference?

Do you have any idea what dendrochronology is used for? Do you understand that even if the data behind this graph didn't show a warming trend, it actually does, that it would only be a single data point? Do you understand that good science is not based on a single cherry picked data point but on all the available data?

And you apparently want to adopt the methods of the minions here who deliberately misstate what someone says. I NEVER suggested that no islands are going under water.

Yes, which is exactly why the cherry picked data that started the entire AGW nonsense was bullshit science.
And Hansen's data was wrong and so on. So who exactly is cherry picking?

At which point the Middle East won't matter one fucking bit, and North America will have the world's largest reserves of shale oil.

Frankly, I like the idea of the Middle East not mattering one bit.  Bring it on!
