THE REAL STORY BEHIND EUROPE'S FIERCE SUPPORT OF KYOTO
by Jay Lehr

When EPA Administrator Christine Todd Whitman announced to the press in March, President Bush's intention not to implement the Kyoto Treaty, Europe exploded with such venom one would have thought would be reserved for initiating a nuclear war.

In Europe Global Warming has become a religion intended to humble the United States and Bush has blasphemed that religion. The green groups across the pond had reveled in their apparent success to throw American industrial power into disarray over planned CO2 reductions.

It was never about science, it was always about bringing the US to its knees. Global Warming was only invented in 1988 to replace two earlier myths with the same intentions, namely, nuclear winter and the advent of a new ice age (how soon they forget). Global Warming would contain all the negative seeds the greens had been planting for the past 30 years including overpopulation, unsustainable growth, pollution, anti-corporate anti-Americanism and Al Gore's view of human greed disturbing the ecological balance.

The battle between good and evil, science versus myth, is exhibited in the newest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to which Europe turns for its support. The report is actually two documents. A summary written by a handful of politically motivated panelists who fully ignore the text of the report. That text describes barely a shred of certain scientific evidence for global warming.

A case in point would be the following statement that appears in the report conclusion. "In sum, a strategy must recognize what is possible. In climate research and modeling, we should recognize that we are dealing with a coupled non-linear system, and therefore that the prediction of a specific future climate is not possible" Of course the European media did not mention this incredibly significant point, choosing instead to focus entirely on the political summary bearing no resemblance to the science that does exist in the report. Richard Lindzen, a meteorology professor at MIT and member of the IPCC offers scathing commentary on the political summary elsewhere in this issue of E&CN.

Unlike the US where the media does on occasion take a look at the seriously deficient science behind the flawed global warming theories, throughout Europe the media has ignored the tremendous uncertainty in all global warming data. Instead they view it as an absolute prophecy of the future resulting from America's corporate energy wasting greed.

In the past few months scientists have continued to pile questions upon the global warming theory in major science journals including, Nature, Climate Research and the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society and the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. The latter concludes that no global climate model can adequately express the relationship between CO2 and global temperature. The other papers call into question the role of all gas emissions, methods of recording temperatures over the oceans, and the role of the most significant greenhouse gas, which is water vapor.

The Global Warming theory is an empty suit, full of scientific flaws and political motivations. The idea that we can control the climate which is governed by literally thousands of variables, by controlling a couple of earthly gas emissions is truly silly. But that is not the point.

The point of it all from the both the foreign and green perspective is to ride this crazy horse till it humbles the most successful governing system ever devised by man.

We are a free and capitalistic nation and thereby have achieved more wealth than our less free socialistic adversaries. In the wrongheaded decision not too emulate our system of government and economic freedom, they have chosen instead to attempt to bring us down to their less productive level with the incessant drumbeat the of global warming ruse.
