Lord Monckton Trashes Al Gore's Global Warming Nonsense

2009 November 1

Lord Christopher Monckton (pictured above), former UN Ambassador John Bolton, and Glenn Beck examined Al Gore’s shoddy global warming science and hypocrisy, along with the dangers of the Copenhagen climate treaty on Beck’s Friday TV show.

Monckton said the treaty would lead to global government. The powers provided in the pact are “enormous,” he said. “They are greater than any government has now.”

Lord Monckton challenged Al Gore to debate him on the science of global warming. Addressing Gore, Monckton said, “and if you don’t dare, I want you to remain silent about that subject forever from now on.”

Of course Gore won’t accept the challenge. Others have asked Gore to debate the science of global warming and he’s consistently refused to do so.

He has much to lose — financially and otherwise.

How is Gore trying to be a climate change profiteer? Essentially, he wants to make a fortune by creating a new market for a product that he is attempting to create by legislative fiat. If he succeeds and carbon emissions trading comes to the United States, Al Gore will be uniquely positioned to cash in. He’s made sure of that.

Gore himself is chairman and founder of a private equity firm called Generation Investment Management (GIM). He says the London-based firm invests money from institutions and wealthy investors in companies that are becoming environmentally-friendly, to use green parlance. GIM appears to have considerable influence over major carbon credit trading firms: the U.S.-based Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) and the U.K.-based Carbon Neutral Company (CNC). CCX appears to be the only firm in the U.S. that claims to trade carbon credits.

As a politician, Gore speaks warmly of transparency. But as GIM chairman, Gore has not been forthcoming. Little is known about his shadowy firm’s finances, where it gets funding and what projects it supports.

Given that he already has the media and much of Big Business on his side, Gore must believe it pays to shut up.

    “No No No! The debate is over! I know that all my theories and models have been proven wrong, But that’s not the point. The point is I stand to make millions and millions of dollars if cap and trade go through. That’s the point! Sure I’ve made close to a hundred million dollars in the past ten years flying all over the world conning everyone stupid enough to believe in this crap. But I want More!!!! My company and my stocks in brokerage houses stand to make me tens of millions every year! That’s the point!”

    Lord Monckton is not the ONLY one RIGHT about this, as old AL was taken to court over the ‘9′ incorrect statements in his book and then movie ‘Inconvenient Truth’. Al was recently confronted again during an Q and A period at an appearance where a fellow asked ‘In the light of the facts he gave false info in the book and movie, would he correct them?” citing the schools are not compelled to show the film until corrections have been made. He first was stunned anyone should question his authority, then evaded the question by asking another question…”I suppose you dont believe polar bears are exstinct either?” The fellow answered, quite right since there are more polar bears now than was 30 years ago!” Old Al and the whole audience laughed even though the fellow is RIGHT on BOTH counts. Three days later, Alaska filed a suit against the Feds to take polar bears OFF the endangered species list.

    It’s fascinating how people who are in denial about global warming are so offended that Al Gore invests in the things he believes are important. Yet strangely the billions being made by coal companies and causing billions in health problems and ruined landscapes are somehow OK. Coal companies also spend millions on disinformation PR campaigns using the same firms that did such a good job in discrediting the connection between smoking and cancer.

    I had the pleasure of being present in St.Paul when Lord Christopher Monckton presented his very clear condemnation of the theory of Anthropomorphic Global Warming with the truth of scientific data and clear demonstation of the data manipulation that claimed support of the theory. I added to his data the life supporting role of CO2 in human physiology and its translation into oceanic acid-base stabilization that permits life to exist. Combine the condemnation of life perpetrated by complete malignant falsehoods supported by the Supreme Court wrong labelling of Carbon Dioxide as toxic to humanity and the Courts decision to permit invasion of the pregnant human uterus to destroy the environment essential for normal growth and development and we now have legal support for crime against humanity. The failure of the opposing political party to call down this human travesty aligns them with this horrible crime against humanity. This is no lnger just a political battle. These government officials should be called to task and reverse their destructive actions. Ovee three million humans have been sacrificed by political lies, misconduct and fracture of their oath of office.

    And ALGORE refuses to debate anyone, world renowned scientists, atmospheric physicists, meteorlogical physicists, any bonified scientist. The fact that 9 points from his silly so called documentary were ruled as inaccurate by the courts speaks volumes.Global environmentalism is a front for the NWO & a new age form of Communism, and acts as a vehicle in which to tax humans all over the globe & redistribute the wealth. Anything to do w/global warming, (now referred to as “climate change” because people are slowly catching on to the fraud) is a means in which to control our lives. Wait till the “smart grid” thermostats are placed in our homes.

    Global warming has nothing at all to do with Al Gore. It was common knowledge in climate science in 1971, long before any of you or he ever heard of this, that the long term average earth surface temperature had been appearing to show an upward trend for between 50 and 100 years at that time. The questions posed in graduate school climatology class then were, “is it real?” and “if so, what is the cause for the upward trend? The argument was made, and could not be refuted at the time, that the trend was an artifact and not a real trend. A real trend, if any, was hypothesized to be due to earth solar geometry variation (aka, “natural cycles”), or solar output variations, or atmospheric CO2 absorption of infrared reradiation. In 1971, there was not enough data to rule out or rule in any of these hypotheses, many of them fifty years old already at the time. In the period since 1971, paper after paper was published in AAAS Science, arguing some point and presenting some data. It was clear by the 1980s that the trend was definitely not an artifact – the numbers were going up too much to be doing so by chance alone. The globe was, on the average getting warmer, and had really been getting warmer all along, for at least 150 years. There had been some short cooling periods, mostly after some big volcanic eruption somewhere. In the 1990s, computers powerful enough to calculate the variation in insolation (solar energy input) due to the variations in earth-sun geometry were made available to climate science. By the year 2000, after a lot of study by a lot of climate scientists, it became clear that the warming trend was highly positively correlated with increasing atmospheric CO2 concentration and was actually weakly correlated negatively with the geometric effects on insolation. In short, we really should be cooling, but we are warming, despite the “natural cycles”, in proportion to the doubling of CO2 in our lower atmosphere. Natural cycles account for the ebb and flow of glaciers, but do not account for the lack of glaciers 700 million years ago, before coal formation began. By “natural cycles” alone we seem to be 75 million years into a 100 milion year cycle, with a glacial maximum due in about 25 million years. All of this was demonstrated by Jim Hansen and many others, published and reviewed, and favorably received, before the inauguration of George W Bush. Al Gore did not know about it, and you all did not know about it, but climate scientists, a lot of other scientists, and science news aficionados knew all about it, way back then. Since 2001, there has been a concerted political effort to manipulate the science about global warming and to obfuscate the issue. Most of the opposition voices in the media would have been laughed right out of my climatology class for not knowing their geography or their physics. So would some of the supporting media voices, especially those appealing to weather as “proof” of global warming, which weather cannot be. Al Gore is just a high profile messenger, nothng more, not really qualified to debate the issue on its merits. For that matter, neither are most of you.

    Nobel peace prize? This is easily the least deserved man of the prize that comes to mind. Anyone can say that something, such as the earth's climate, which changes in reaction to the sun's activity, is actually a natural disaster in the making, when really it is simply nature taking it's natural unstoppable course. Al Gore is simply tring to make himself millions, if he actually belives this horse hockey he is feeding the worl, i don't know, but he seems to be a large enough idiot to do so. This guy does NOT deserve a prize of any sort, let alone the Nobel Peace Prize. If in any way possible, i feel it should be stripped from him.

    Ok Vernon, the point here is that Al Gore is trying to push a message that he doesn't feel he can debate. This the main point here, not global warming itself, so if you are going to write a page long heap of nonsense maybe you should realize that it's not the point of argument here. You should also realize your hypocracy, for obviously you have no more qualifications to debate this topic than anyone else, for you are to caught up in yourself to realize what the topic even is. So instead of thinking you better than everyone else and that your some kind of genius, sice you probably copied most of you comment out of someone else's article, why don't you and Al Gore both go and get a hobby.

    How do you define a con man? A swindler who exploits the confidence of his victim.

    Carbon Footprint?=The sum of all emissions of greenhouse gases like CO2 (carbon dioxide), which were induced by your activities in a given time frame …the negative impact that something (as a person or business) has on the environment.

    Global warming?=Attributed to an intensifying of the greenhouse effect, that could lead …

    Al Gore’s Carbon Footprint?=

    According to the Nashville Electric Service (NES), in 2006 Al Gore’s Mansion (20 rooms and 8 bathrooms) uses approximately 20 times the electricity that an average American household uses (221,000 KWh per year vs. 10,656 KWh).

    For the year of 2006, the Gore estate paid $30,000 for electricity and natural gas.

    Tom,

    Your “argumentum tu quo quo” does not validate the fallicious argument of global warming. No one said coal was clean or a perfect fuel. Global warming is a hoax. In the spirit of liberals, I offer you this analogy: “Bush lied, people died”= “Gore lied, his millions multiplied”. Wake up you hypocritical lefty. Apply the same critical research you used against Bush to your “saviors”. You might find something that does not compute.

    Tom.

    Global warming is a natural and harmless situation. The world hasn’t ended the hundreds of other times the world has warmed slightly and hasn’t ended all the times it’s cooled slightly. What we ‘dissidents’ know that snake oil salesmen like gore and his ilk have, are and will take advantage of faulty information to their advantage. Man has very little to do with the earths conditions, as much as our tiny little egos will allow. I believe the we care more for the earth than do the alarmist ,due to the fact we believe, that man can, and has, improved his science and to the betterment of life on earth and in time will make the earth a perfect and clean place. However making man take steps backward will only prolong the hazards and make it so much harder to fix things.

    Do you honestly believe Tom that when man first started using coal that we thought,”Sure it’s going to cause health problems but screw it we can make money!” No, Tom. We are just progressing through stages that man will go through and learn from. Today’s technology already has turned back the tide in polluting the world, with the exception of third world countries who haven’t caught up to us. The global alarmist want us to cease polluting to the cost of sacrificing our future for the unknown sins of our past. It’s only through progress will we better our selves. Not regression.

    Al gore has been proven wrong so many times and still the slaves of mediocrity wave his banners. Why do you ignore these facts Tom? Is it preprogrammed guilt that your one of the ones destroying the world? Do you have money invested in green projects or companies? Or does the possibility that you are wrong ,scare you more than the results of fictitious warming warnings ?

    Your good at pointing out little inconsistencies but you lack the vision of the overall picture. The question I ask is it done willfully or honestly?

    I just received this (Tuesday evening 11.03.09) from SPPI:

    International negotiators lost one of the key elements to a successful deal on global warming today after Democratic leaders in the US Congress ruled out passing a climate change law before 2010. In the latest obstacle on the road to the UN summit in Copenhagen next month, Senate leaders ordered a five-week pause to review the costs of the legislation. In a move to stem the Republican protest, and quieten Democrat critics, the Democratic leader in the Senate, Harry Reid, said he would ask the Environmental Protection Agency to spend five weeks reviewing the potential costs of the bill.

    Not so amazing perhaps…

    Gore’s been a congenital liar for years….

    His incredible dishonesty started to show up during the 1992 democratic primary, when he was fighting slick willy for the nomination….

    What opened my eyes about him, some time later, was his disgraceful lies about his army service in Vietnam…

    According to Al, “He joined because he didn’t feel that privileged young men like himself, should be exempt from fighting for their country”

    The truth however is that his father, an enormously powerful senator at the time, had already begun grooming him for the White House, and his military record was to become the first part of his LEGEND. It was the same strategy that Kerry was trying to use for himself.. Remember the Swift Boat Veterans ? (Kerry was even more disingenuous about his service than Gore.)

    In all of Gore’s time in Nam, he never even went to the latrine on his own, unless he was accompanied by his permanent 2 man team of bodyguards… And if you remember correctly, whenever he was photographed, he always had his rifle over his shoulder, as if he was getting ready to march of on a patrol……

    Not to many people know this about Gore…….

    I happened to be a Marine Corps Combat Photographer about a year before he was there, and a friend of mine who was an Army Special Forces officer in Nam while Gore was there, told me the whole story……

    Personally… for me at least, Gore and Kerry have always been the most disgusting liars in American politics……..

    But now we have Barry………………..

    It shouldn’t surprise anyone that liberal arts majors and actors are the people that support Mr. Gore. After all, they are stupid enough to fall for his cult of personality (Or lack thereof.)
    It’s like I’ve always said, there is no scientific proof of global warming and the scientists are deserting the global warming boat like rats from the proverbial sinking ship.

    The only person on that list that isn’t a hypocrite is Ed Begley Jr, and that’s because he’s completely off of the grid and runs on solar and bike power.

    The rest are just cult members, which is what they are trying to do: Declare the Global warming a religion.

    Where in Business Week? That’s an old, hoax charge against Gore. For a business building — he runs his work out of his inherited home — it’s very efficient. As a model of retrofitting, his home rather points the way.

    I’ll wager Gore’s home is more green than yours.
