The annual cost of emission permits to energy users will be at least $100 billion by 2020 and could exceed $300 billion by 2030 (in inflation-adjusted 2006 dollars).

So these days, are there any legitimate dissenters on global warming -- or is it global cooling? Consider this, from a 1975 Newsweek article headlined: "The Cooling World": The central fact is that after three quarters of a century of extraordinarily mild conditions, the earth's climate seems to be cooling down....(Climatologists) are almost unanimous in the view that the (global cooling) trend will reduce agricultural productivity for the rest of the century.

-- By 1988, Newsweek was declaring consensus -- near unanimity -- among climatologists that the real culprit was not global cooling but global warming. A 2008 Newsweek article headlined "Global Warming Is a Cause of this Year's Extreme Weather" went over the edge. It oozed with sarcasm about the childish, dissenting notion of global cooling.

-- Despite bogus claims -- by Gore and other messianic warmists -- that polar bears are diminishing to the point of endangerment, their numbers continue to increase and they continue to adapt. Never mind. Your federal government has worked to designate 200,541 square miles off Alaska's coast as crucial habitat for polar bears alone. So the area's energy potential cannot be tapped.

Global warming is complete BS!!! The government is doing this to use the money for there own use. People should know that even during the summer of this year in Illinois, for parts of the summer it was real cold. Global warming is a hoax. Global cooling is whats really happening in the world.

I was listening one day to Rush Limbaugh and he was discussing this very same thing and how Obama lies. Listen to the audio clip. Just great.
