Just in case you were busy over the weekend with kids/Church/parties/football/Facebook, and missed some of the News related to Global Warming, I offer the following to you, Dear Reader, as a Public Service:
Danny Glover, the Actor and Producer, blamed the Earthquake in Haiti on the failure of the Climate Change Conference to stop natural disasters (I think):

"What happened in Haiti could happen to anywhere in the Caribbean because all these island nations are in peril because of global warming .... When we see what we did at the climate summit in Copenhagen, this is the response, this is what happens, you know what I'm sayin'?"
From the Sunday Times of London, the claim in 2007 by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that the Himalayan Glaciers could melt by 2035, has been called into question. A journalist traced the story's origin back to a phone call in 1999 by "The New Scientist" magazine to a little known Indian researcher, who has now admitted that his statement in that phone call was "speculation." His speculation was picked up and repeated numerous times without peer review and then was included as a probability in the UN Report of 2007.

Still on matters of Ice, among the most sensational citations of Global Warming Advocates is that the North Pole will be free of ice by the summer of 2013. According to several newspaper reports, including "The Olympian" of Olympia, Washington, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center in Denver, Colorado, has issued a statement that "Arctic summer sea ice has increased by 409,000 square miles, or 26 percent, since 2007.”

DISCLAIMER -- Dear Reader, I do advocate that each of us in our own way be the best stewards of Mother Earth that we can be. That we preserve and protect this precious environment which God has given to us. I only ask that we examine this issue on a rational basis, rather than an emotional basis (spare me the Polar Bear pictures, please) and that we look for the money trail -- who benefits on each side of the argument.
Treat the earth well. It was not given to you by your parents,it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.
~~ Native American Proverb
