The powers that be will go to every length to protect their interests:
Al Gore lavishly profited ..

Al Gore is probably one of the small/smallest players.
(imho) he’s used for public display, the most powerful would not submit themselves to all that drama+nonsense. for these, if need be, Al Gore could be expendable .. he could be replaced.

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

Oh, they are. They know they can use this to power their battleships and rail guns.

Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not after you.

true. if not for war, humankind might be living much more as folks did 2-3000 years ago. or more.
not what we care to think about, but, war is a great motivator.

it’s strange to see blizzard conditions in Scotland, Wales, Ireland, England ..
cold coming from all across Europe has created the conditions.

some reports are citing, “not since 1990-ish” ..
looks like they are preparing for another frigid blast across Europe:

UK: BEAST FROM THE EAST Part 2 / Siberia

THE SAHARA DESERT PAINTED WHITE WITH SNOW

“The incident happened 17 miles off the coast of Oregon Inlet, and was reported by the
Maersk Shanghai on Sunday, March 4.

The ship had experienced high winds and rough seas because of a
nor’easter that hit the east coast last weekend, and lost 76 cargo containers while at sea.”

Cargo container lost off North Carolina coast had 5,900 pounds of sulfuric acid in it:

i believe this heavy weather that hit the U.S. East Coast was connected, or coincided with, the “beastly” weather in the UK, their first “beast from the Siberian east.”

I have not taken the time to sort though all this. Just posting it as interesting.

http://notrickszone.com/2018/01/01/150- ... KInpe.dpbs
In the last 12 months, 150 graphs from 122 peer-reviewed scientific papers have been published that undermine the popularized conception of a slowly cooling Earth temperature history followed by a dramatic hockey-stick-shaped uptick, or an especially unusual global-scale warming during modern times.

Yes, some regions of the Earth have been warming in recent decades or at some point in the last 100 years.

Some regions have been cooling for decades at a time.

And many regions have shown no significant net changes or trends in either direction relative to the last few hundred to thousands of years.

Succinctly, then, scientists publishing in peer-reviewed journals have increasingly affirmed that there is nothing historically unprecedented or remarkable about today’s climate when viewed in the context of long-term natural variability.

Where can I find that kind of statement in a peer-reviewed scientific journal that most scientists would consider credible? Until scientific publications tell me that this is what scientists are saying, I'm skeptical of what I read in politicized sources.

I tried looking at the URL, but I couldn't figure out how to tell if the scientists who wrote the papers they refer to would agree with this conclusion.

We got 14" of snow here. I am so glad for global warming. I would be afraid of what we would have gotten if it was still cold. :laugh
