It's still somehow our fault, I'm sure mankind has done something to cause this. Lets see, the smog is making the sun blot out and so that's made the temps drop.

See, it's still mankind, dang it.

Thank goodness that an unbiased reputable news service was here to clear up that whole mess for us. I think that I'll go outside now and burn some plastic.

NewsMax is just a conservative propaganda rag, so anything you read there needs a strong dose of skepticism. The article's claims are pretty silly. The global warming phenomenon is one measured over long periods of time, over many decades or centuries, and not from year to year. It's also important to keep in mind that the term 'global warming' doesn't denote rising temperatures everywhere, but instead refers to the rising global average temperature. Indeed, some parts of the globe may experience colder than normal temperatures as climatic systems are disrupted worldwide.

I think the article is a good example of the kind of disinformation and misconceptions there are about the global warming phenomenon.

These idiots can't even get the forecast right over the next 12 hours and you expect me to believe that they know what is going to happen over the next 10, 20 or 50 years? Global Warming has been going on for
12000 years. Too slow for my taste.
