John Stossel Exposes Global Warming Myths

Great News!!! According to John Stossel and many prominent scientists global warming IS NOT man-made! That means there are plenty of polar bears to go around for all of us (unless the Japanese run out of whales to harpoon - hmm, what can we wipe out next?). So there's not such a rush - Al Gore sure had us carnivores in a tizzy - it's like being told Burger King's discontinuing the Whopper.

To Quote:
Gore's film is filled with “misleading messages,” says Stossel.
“It suggests polar bears are disappearing and that ‘sea levels worldwide would go up 20 feet.’ I interview children who are scared. They believe the polar bears are already going extinct and that the oceans will soon rise even higher than 20 feet, drowning them and their parents.
“But polar bear populations appear to be steady or increasing, and a 20-foot rise is a theoretical possibility that wouldn't happen for millennia. The IPCC, the group that shared last week’s Nobel Prize with the Vice President, says in 100 years the oceans might rise 7 to 24 inches, not 20 feet. Now a British judge has ruled that British schools must disclose to students nine inaccuracies in ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ if they play the movie in class.”
Stossel said it’s “nonsense” for Gore to suggest that we can stop global warming by doing things like changing light bulbs and driving less.
