Sen. Stabenow “Feels” AGW When She Is Flying

AGW Loony

Debbie Stabenow (D-Michigan) in an interview with the Detroit News in mid-August 2009, said: “Climate change is very real.” She endorsed cap and trade’s massive tax increase on Michigan industry, saying it would not lead to an increase in manufacturing costs or energy prices. “Global warming creates volatility,” said Senator Stabenow. “I feel it when I’m flying. The storms are more volatile. We are paying the price in more hurricanes and tornadoes.”

Except, there is no scientific evidence that we are getting more hurricanes and tornadoes as a result of anthropogenic global warming. Natural warming, yes, AGW, no. If AGW was so bad, why have the number of hurricanes been so low the past three years? Why are tornado hunters having a tough time finding tornadoes this year? If AGW was real, rather than a function of natural processes, should they increase? Or, is AGW causing the reduction, as well?

Says SPPI President, Robert Ferguson, “One of the clearest demonstrations that politicians like Senators Kerry and Stabenow are simply inventing scare stories about the climate is when they attribute recent events, such as “volatility” when flying, to “global warming” that has not happened for almost a decade and a half.

Without scary stuff, who would pay attention and Believe? Which helps the head shrinks, who will have to treat more and more kids who are scared silly.

    Teach for the last 10+ years the sun has been in a cool inactive phase. If the sun is not causing the increase in worldwide temps what is causing them ?

    And although Hudson Bay ice is healthy the rest of the arctic is having major perhaps record ice loss. Pointing out weather anomalities as a way of strengthening your position really doesn’t help. http://www.nationalpost.com/story.html?id=1909914
    And here is still another SHOCKER ! JUly was the fifth warmest July ever recorded http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/?report=global
    And the year to date is the sixth warmest ever recorded. Teach what do you believe is causing this increase ? You refuse to believe that man has ANY part in this ?

    I knew I could count on John showing up for this one.
    Where do you get this rubbish? It’s got to be biased sites.

    I just googled “coolest July ever” and got a zillion hits, here are a few.
