How do you like the weather we are having lately? The summer of 2009 was quite cool, and in some parts of the world it was the coolest since temperature measurements began. This winter is turning out to be a record-breaker too.

But, according to the weather models which the UN and the IPCC spent billions of dollars developing, this cold weather should not be occurring. According the the IPCC, world temperatures should have been warmer. The world's average temperature for 2009 negated nearly all of the global warming which occurred in the last century. Yes, that's right, if the temperatures of 2008/2009 are figured into the world's average temperatures for the last century, then it means that there will have been no global warming.

The UK's Met office had predicted that 2010 would be the hottest year in history, but how could they be wrong? They have a staff of 1500, a supercomputer for developing climate models, and taxpayer funding of 170 million pounds per year. Interestingly enough, the Met office had predicted each of the last 3 years would be warmer than the previous year, when the opposite actually happened. The Met office predicted a much warmer than normal winter for this year, and instead the UK gets one of the coldest winters in memory. But of course, the taxpayer-funded Met office is led by Robert Napier, a global warming activist and former head of the WWF.

We have been told regularly that greenhouse gases cause global warming, and even global warming skeptics agree that "greenhouse" gases have been increasing each year. But global warming hasn't. The only obvious fact that can derived from this is that greenhouse gases may not really be greenhouse gases, or that their real influence on the world's climate is much smaller than what some originally thought.

Another interesting fact is that the head of the IPCC panel on Climate Change is Dr Rajendra Pachauri. Dr Pachauri is not a meteorologist or a climatologist, he is a railroad engineer. At one time he was on the board of directors of the Indian Oil Corporation. Since leaving Indian Oil, he is now on the board of directors of an alternative energy company based in India.

It's no wonder that Dr Pachauri is such a advocate of global warming. Had a binding agreement been reached in Copenhagen, India would have received untold billions of dollars in aid (as India is considered a "developing" country) to use for developing alternate energy. As a director of India's largest alternative energy companies, Dr Pachauri would have profited immensely.

Many of you here may have used information on Wikipedia to learn more about global warming. Unfortunately, the information on Wikipedia is not objective. Much of what is written about global warming on Wikipedia was re-written or edited by a man called William Connelley. William Connelley is a a green party activist, and a member of an organization called realclimate.org.

"Connolley took control of all things climate in the most used information source the world has ever known – Wikipedia. Starting in February 2003, just when opposition to the claims of the band members were beginning to gel, Connolley set to work on the Wikipedia site. He rewrote Wikipedia’s articles on global warming, on the greenhouse effect, on the instrumental temperature record, on the urban heat island, on climate models, on global cooling. On Feb. 14, he began to erase the Little Ice Age; on Aug.11, the Medieval Warm Period. In October, he turned his attention to the hockey stick graph. He rewrote articles on the politics of global warming and on the scientists who were skeptical of the band. Richard Lindzen and Fred Singer, two of the world’s most distinguished climate scientists, were among his early targets, followed by others that the band especially hated, such as Willie Soon and Sallie Baliunas of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, authorities on the Medieval Warm Period.

All told, Connolley created or rewrote 5,428 unique Wikipedia articles. His control over Wikipedia was greater still, however, through the role he obtained at Wikipedia as a website administrator, which allowed him to act with virtual impunity. When Connolley didn’t like the subject of a certain article, he removed it — more than 500 articles of various descriptions disappeared at his hand. When he disapproved of the arguments that others were making, he often had them barred — over 2,000 Wikipedia contributors who ran afoul of him found themselves blocked from making further contributions. Acolytes whose writing conformed to Connolley’s global warming views, in contrast, were rewarded with Wikipedia’s blessings. In these ways, Connolley turned Wikipedia into the missionary wing of the global warming movement.

The Medieval Warm Period disappeared, as did criticism of the global warming orthodoxy. With the release of the Climategate Emails, the disappearing trick has been exposed."
