The Farce In The Icehouse

clipped from www.geocraft.com

Since the climate has always been changing and will likely continue
of its own accord to change in the future, instead of crippling the U.S.
economy in order to achieve small reductions in global warming effects
due to manmade additions to atmospheric carbon dioxide, our resources may
be better spent making preparations to adapt to global cooling and global
warming, and the inevitable consequences of fluctuating ocean levels, temperatures,
and precipitation that accompany climatic change.

Supporting this view is British scientist Jane
Francis
, who maintains:


" What we are seeing really is just another interglacial phase
within our big icehouse climate."
Dismissing political calls for
a global effort to reverse climate change, she said, " It's really
farcical because the climate has been changing constantly... What we should
do is be more aware of the fact that it is changing and that we should
be ready to adapt to the change."
