Global Cooling trumps "Global Warming"
I'm sure this news will take a very long time to filter through to the so-called "mainstream media", but hard scientific evidence has now confirmed suspicions that the earth is actually now experiencing "Global Cooling".
China has its coldest winter in 100 years. Baghdad sees its first snow in all recorded history. North America has the most snow cover in 50 years, with places like Wisconsin the highest since record-keeping began.Previously the argument for a cooling planet has been limited to anecdotal evidence, but the world's main 'temperature tracking' organisations have released new data revealing global temperatures dropped sharply over the past year...
Record levels of Antarctic sea ice, record cold in Minnesota, Texas, Florida, Mexico, Australia, Iran, Greece, South Africa, Greenland, Argentina, Chile -- the list goes on and on.

In fact, all four temperature monitoring agencies (HadCRUT, RSS, UAH, and GISS) found the period from Jan '07 - Jan '08 had "the single fastest temperature change ever recorded, either up or down".
As this article at Daily Tech points out, Cold weather is a lot more damaging to humans, animals, and plants than hot weather is...
"Historically, the warm periods such as the Medieval Climate Optimum were beneficial for civilization. Corresponding cooling events such as the Little Ice Age, though, were uniformly bad news."
Last year it was reported that more than 500 international scientists have published evidence "refuting the current man-made global warming scare", which blames humans as the primary cause of global temperature increases since 1850.
A major study revealed that levels of carbon dioxide (C02) were largely irrelevant to global warming, despite what the UN's scientists have been spinning to the world.
A growing number of scientists who disagree with the "official party line" claim reduced solar activity is a "much larger driver of climate change than man-made greenhouse gases."

Hi Dave-
I love the sources for this:
a) WorldNetDaily, a 'news' site that has an EXCLUSIVE story about how searching for "Find Chuck Norris" on Google brings up a page saying "Google won't search for Chuck Norris...". Apart from the obvious hilarity in running an article like that, they also fail to notice that the Find Chuck Norris result page isn't actually Google at all, but a joke clone site.
b) Watt's Up With That?, a random blogger reading climate data.
c) DailyTech, re-writing said random blogger, and getting it wrong in the first instance as well (see footnote on Watt blog).
Oh dear, if only bloggers could turn around the work of thousands of reputable scientists worldwide!
