Proving that even the weatherman can be biased, "Good Morning America’s" Sam Champion used Tuesday’s edition of the ABC program to tout an apocalyptic study on global warming. In a report that featured no skepticism about the cause or genuine threat of climate change, Champion utilized dire language to discuss an impending report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. It should be noted, as previously reported by NewsBusters, that this meteorologist has a committed agenda when it comes to global warming and environmental issues. He recently touted the "very sexy" group of actors and environmental activists/actors. Champion began Tuesday’s report by forshadowing the immediate future:
Sam Champion: "This morning, 500 of the top scientists in the world are meeting behind closed doors to finish up a landmark report on global warming. And the picture they're painting isn't pretty. We're talking about change that's not 100 years away, but within the next 10 years. This is not the future -- it's happening today."
The morning weatherman went on to cite the liberal position on global warming: A call for reducing carbon emissions and he also noted that the IPCC scientists cite humans as the cause: "No one’s really gotten together to blame it on humans--this big of a crowd."
Champion began the segment, which aired at 7:15 on January 30 and followed another global warming-related report, by predicting impending doom. He didn’t, however, note that previous media-promoted predictions of apocalypse have proved incorrect:
Chris Cuomo: "It's interesting, while politicians invite the blame game about who may or may not have muzzled science, there's actually a new report that hits on the most pressing issue, when global warming could make a difference. Sam, you've been gearing up for this report coming out. What could it mean?"
Sam Champion: "And first time study this size, Chris. This morning, 500 of the top scientists in the world are meeting behind closed doors to finish up a landmark report on global warming. And the picture they're painting isn't pretty. We're talking about change that's not 100 years away, but within the next 10 years. This is not the future -- it's happening today. Already massive glaciers and sea ice are disappearing. Droughts are ravaging Africa, Southern Asia, and Australia. And rising oceans are covering islands and beaches. And a draft of a new report on climate change obtained by ABC News paints a disastrous look for global warming."
Kenneth Denman (Co-author IPCC Report) "We're hoping that it will convince people that it's, you know, that climate change is real."
Champion: "The soon to be released report predicts an increase in heat waves, intense tropical storms, and hurricanes. A sharp rise in sea levels and at an even faster pace, the continuing melting of the world's ice. American scientists reportedly want the final version of the report to recommend new technologies, called geo-engineering. One idea, for instance, would use giant mirrors to deflect some of the sun's rays from getting to get to the Earth, cooling the planet back down. Sounds like science fiction. With NASA funding, University of Arizona professor Roger Angel is researching using small discs to create a giant sun shade in space."
Roger Angel: "The effect would be, could be, to take our temperature back to pre-industrial level."
Champion: "But these ideas are still considered a last resort. Most scientists believe we need to focus on reducing carbon emissions before looking into alternatives in space."
Mike MacCracken (Climate Institute): "Well, I don't think geo-engineering is a magic bullet. We just haven't found anything that has really come close to being able to do anything that doesn't have other side effects that you just wouldn't want to have happen."
Champion: "But some say we already may be at a point of no return. On Monday, Indonesia's environmental minister warned that rising sea levels may cover some 2000 of his country's more than 18,000 islands in just 23 years. And we'll be talking about other stories about global warming all this week as we count down to the release of that full report on Friday. And I'll be there in Paris on Friday for the release of that report."
Cuomo: "We hear about timing, but to have all these scientists on the same page about how soon? That's rare, isn't it?"
Champion: "That's what's new about this. No one’s really gotten together to blame it on humans--this big of a crowd."
Nobody has gotten together to blame this on humans? Perhaps the ABC meteorologist missed the concerted effort that was "An Inconvenient Truth." (Also, it's interesting to note that the plan cited by University of Arizona professor Roger Angel to use space discs is straight out of a Futurama episode, "Crimes of the Hot.")
So, while the East Coast continues to suffer under a cold snap, Americans should probably expect more global warming propaganda from GMA’s weatherman.

I've heard the argument made
January 30, 2007 - 16:47 ET by Darth DutchI've heard the argument made that global warming is too big of an issue for us not to try to reverse it by cutting down on CO2 emissions, recycling, etc. However, there is a logical breakdown in this line of thinking. If humans CAN do something about it and choose to, it would make sense that global warming would slow down, stop or reverse. However, if humans CAN'T do anything about it and try to anyways, the result would still be the same since global warming would have slown down, stopped, or reversed on its own. But even if that were to happen, the global warming theorists would claim a victory because they would have believed that it was their efforts directly which would have made the difference.
So, the only real way to see if humans do make a difference is for us to do nothing differently. If the trend continues (and it must continue over dozens, or even hundreds of years), then you may have an argument for human influence. But if it stops, then you know that humans don't have anything or very little to do with global warming and the popular theorists were wrong.
But of course no one is going to advocate "doing nothing". :)

The odds are that the United States will be hit with nuclear weapons in the near future,...but now that I clearly understand that the world will end in less than ten years (check Rush's AlGore countdown!!) because of global warming, I don't have to worry about glowing in the dark.

These people are going crazy...10 years and we are doomed. The sad thing is in another day and time such excesses might have made it into print with The National Enquirer but my lord, the people who are trusted with the "microphone for the masses" (I claim that) are engaging in this ridiculous and poli-agendized nonsense.
This crap has to stop. The UN calling for an emegency meeting? Good lord and these people think it is really true and we only have 10 years left. This is insanity!

January 30, 2007 - 16:59 ET by Darth DutchThink of the implications of what this would mean if they truly believed we only had 10 years left.
First, why would we still pay into Social Security? Shouldn't we get that money back since there apparently won't be anyone around in 10 years to receive the money?
And why waste money maintaining road, building schools, etc.?

January 30, 2007 - 17:35 ET by danboIf we took them at face value. We should consider mobilizing the military invading china and india,and forcing them to stop industrializing. Then burn down all the factories in this country and in europe.

The end of the world has been posponed till after the taxes are collected.

Climate change science program costs
January 31, 2007 - 06:16 ET by SportPoliticsClimate change science program costs,Rick Piltz, former 10 year director:
" This is a 2 billion dollar a year program, with 12 agencies"
Other panelist Reikle (environmental professor, Columbia libUniversity)~" There's 140 billion dollars the US government spends on science resreach every year "
Well, there you have it, 140 billion dollars worth of love for the democrats saving the planet. Maybe the demcorats can take away all the dollars there that areput into military research, and implement Al Gore's cow fart catcher nationwide. I'm sure all the flyover farmers will love it, and thank al and jimmah for being such wonderful commies.
PS- Rick Piltz just ADMITTED he is a POLITICAL SCIENTIST - not a climate scientist...LOL
ThankS Bill Clinton, for appointing a politicalscientist to lead the Climate Change Program ! ROFLMAO
Thank you Republican Darrel Issa of S. Cal. for exposing this amazing fact,at the Henry Waxman Bush politicized science conferrence. Once again slick willies hands are all over this one.
Henry Waxman just took leave to go take a crap, after spewing his evian water all over the chairpersons emminent leadership spot.
ROFLMAO - WOW !
Now the " affirmative action" tumbly loved global massive farter lady got swatted by Issa, after she cited "Climate Scientist " Rick Piltz as one who "peer reviewed" her political email "survey". Darrel Issa had to remind her, he is only a political scientist. She had no idea her former boss wasn't a climate scientist, since anyone running a 2 billion dollar government seance research program - one would think - would be a scientist - on science, not politics...
ROFLMAO - HENRY WAXMAN, YOUR WHOLE HEARING JUST GOT DESTROYED, HAVE FUN IN THE TOILET,HOPE THE GOVERNMENT MANDATED WATER SAVING FLUSH GETS IT ALL DOWN THE TUBE THE FIRST TIME. LOL

January 30, 2007 - 17:02 ET by saw the lightSo disastrous climate change will occur in the next 10 years. I guess I can stop putting money into my 457 plan and saving for my daughter's college education.
If this is bad enough to occur in 10 years, how in the world are we going to be able to do anything significant enough to stop it?
I have decided to make a stand against global warming. I am going to stop breathing. That should save enough carbon dioxide generation to give us a few more minutes to save the earth. Then I will....um....getting..light......head......(thump).

I'm listening to the wonderful Senator James Inhofe on Sean Hannity's radio program right now. He's giving the facts (the MSM says "Facts? What's that?") about the global warming hoax.
Enough already with these wacko chicken littles. As Genesis 8:22 stated thousands of years ago:
"While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease."

January 30, 2007 - 17:26 ET by FastEdPart of the Report says:
"As confident as scientists are about the global warming effects that they've already documented, they are as gloomy about the future and even hotter weather and higher sea level rises. Predictions for the future of global warming in the report are based on 19 computer models, about twice as many as in the past, Solomon said. (emphasis mine)
Computer models are not proof! But the msm (Lsm) will continue to make these "predictions" news.
I do have a question - if there is going to more water available, rising oceans, melting ice caps, melting glaciers - wouldn't it follow that there would be more evaporation, hence more clouds, more light energy reflected to space, more cooling? Is that in this report? And why the editing in secret? Is Hillary on the panel? Does this mean it's HillaryClimate?

Actually, the US economy was supposed to crash in the eighties and Japan was going to be the new 800-pound gorilla. Then Friedman was accepted and the Reaganauts saved us from Keynsian nitwittery. Now the international left has devised another crusade to shut down the US's continuing proof that market capitalism produces growth. Kyoto is a farce. The UN is a shambles. And now we are supposed to eviscerate ourselves over scientific Malthusian predictions?

I thought The Population Bomb
January 30, 2007 - 17:51 ET by MikeBI thought The Population Bomb was supposed to have killed us decades ago. And, in the 1970s we were facing an imminent ice age...Time magazine told us that that was the consensus among climatologists and the debate was closed. And the oceans were supposed to be dead more than a decade ago, according to Whoopi Goldberg's boyfriend. And bird flu was supposed to be as bad a pandemic as the Spanish Flu of 1919. And, if those didn't kill us, Chinese Food, eggs, coffee, Mexican food, McDonalds, and theater popcorn was going to make us drop dead in our tracks. The panic mongers are doing a lousy job predicting the end of the earth. Well, they are doing a good job predicting, just a lousy job of predicting accurately. Their credibility is shot as far as I am concerned. But, hey, panic means more research grants, right?

The next 3-4 weeks across this country are going to rival the top 5 in the last 50 for the level of cold we are about to see. Maybe that will help cool me off a little LOL. But then again im sure it will be caused by man made global warming some how.

January 30, 2007 - 20:47 ET by ckc1227Interesting how they can accurately predict the end 10 years from now, yet can't accurately predict the weather 10 days from now.

January 30, 2007 - 21:51 ET by NonanonIt seems the weather guessers around here can only get about eight hours of forecasting somewhat correct. How can they expect us to believe they can tell what eight days, eight weeks, eight months, etc... will bring?
Didn't Ted Danson say we only had 10 years left some 20 years ago? Maybe it is Hollywood math they are using to come up with these ideas. After all, Hollywood is all about fantasy and believing movies are real.

January 30, 2007 - 21:52 ET by danboThere's a lot of hype because IPCC is getting ready to release their report they are working on in secret. (Not sure why scientist need to work in secret.)
Expect that IPCC will report an increase of 0.8c rather than previously held 0.6c since the late 1800's. Interesting there is no or little change in the recent data. Rather what is being changed is the earlier data.
It must have been caused by recent updates from the 1890's early 1900's.
Will they tell us that 2006 was the coldest year in the last 5 years? Despite a new El nino. Colder than the high point of 1998? Did CO2 drop in 2006?
