The outgoing leader of Greenpeace has admitted his organization’s recent claim that the Arctic Ice will disappear by 2030 was “a mistake.” Greenpeace made the claim in a July 15 press release entitled “Urgent Action Needed As Arctic Ice Melts,” which said there will be an ice-free Arctic by 2030 because of global warming. Under close questioning by BBC reporter Stephen Sackur on the “Hardtalk” program, Gerd Leipold, the retiring leader of Greenpeace, said the claim was wrong. “I don’t think it will be melting by 2030. … That may have been a mistake,” he said.

So he admits to a whopper of a lie that Al Gore 's even bigger Whopper of a lie is predicated on but no one that believes in GLOBAL WARMING is going to turn back from their position now, espesially with all the monies that are to be made when they can bilk the public from the GREEN MOVEMENT and CAP AND TRADE when they force it through, GOD FORBID! The honest thing to do would be for every one of these nutters to admit that global warming is false but we can meet in the middle and clean up the planet a little anyway but we don't have to do it at man's expense!

Well, Duh!!!!! Some call it an exaggeration and some call it a mistake. Global warming is nothing more than a huge lie perpetuated to make money for those wishing to cash in on it. As for me.........I'm not buying it. We were supposed to have a global ice age back in the 1970's. Follow the money trail.
Scot
Next, he'll be telling us that Gorebal Warming is a farce.
Hopefully we can unravel all this enviro-crap before the Waxman-Markey legislation re-appears in the Senate. How insanely and deliberately stupid can our representatives be to pass the absolutely CRAZY sweeping legislation taxing every single producer and consumer of any kind of energy, even creating a 'tax' for cow farts?

Worse then greenpeace?.. How about 'Whale Wars" on Animal Planet
These sanctimonious morons are glorified by lobbing wet noodles at Japanese whaling ships who go right on harvesting whales.. while all these idiots can do is go "Boo Hoo"!

He isn't going to tell you that Green Peace is most of the reason why our factories went to Mexico. Green Peace's forced provisions made it difficult for industries to function here in America.
None of these Bast@$*& care about us. Their pockets are lined with money pocketed from donators. He doesn't have to worry about trying to find work.
liberals=lies lies lies and gimmee gimmee is their MO
fed up with them all
So what else is new? the greens along with our great leaders have lied about so many things for so long, they have no idea what the truth is.
Recon
Effectively nationalizing banks.
Nationalizing Chrysler and GM.
Firing the CEO of GM.
Breaking contract law.
Sending union thugs to break up citizen meetings.
Intimidating private citizens.
Attempting to nationalize health care.
Trying to destroy the insurance industry.
Appointing unaccountable "czars".
After six months of Obeyme, we can all see Russia from our own houses.

At least THIS Buffoon is honest as he walks out the door...think Al Gore will ever FESS UP?? NOOOOOO!! He's just changed his terminology!! NOW...he's no longer saying "Global Warming" since the earth IS COOLING!! NOW?? It's CLIMATE CHANGE!! GOOD GRIEF!! GMAB, Man...just how stupid do you think we are?? (Apparently, Pretty DAMN stupid!!)

Maybe Greenpeace will disappear? Hid, watch and wait. The cap and trade legislation coming up this fall will be on a fast track to pass due to global warming. There will not be a minute to waste.

Global warming is a bunch of BS that the left uses just to raise our taxes. I guess that it makes them feel powerful if they can control the climate with their actions. Fact is that mankind does not affect the climate God does so get over it.
Reality Man
Global warming is now know in circles where people have some sense, The Gore/Obama's last stand or to lliberals and Democrats as Cap & Trade. Who could believe anything Al Gore (PhD in pseudoscience) says. What is so stupid is that Gore's pitch talked about CO2 in the air being the boogyman. Obama's crap-ass idea is based of Gore's BS about CO2-that's where the carbon is. Total BS. MUST be defeated. God Bless America.

I love how these environitwits get all "wee-weed" when others don't buy into the lie of global warming...er...climate change... er...what are you idiots calling now? It's hard to keep up with your re-labeling every month or two.

Oh, excuse me--I made a mistake-- another climate change error. Has anyone ever watched "Deadliest Catch or Ice Road Truckers? The Bering Sea gets so bad the crab boats can hardly get into the harbor's drop off point. I remember someone saying about ten years ago that the Amazon forest area was almost gone.

I remember Ted Danson saying the oceans would be devoid of life in 1988.
Rush has a countdown clock for Gore's 10 year claim that global warming will cook us.

"A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly against the city. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears no traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victim, and he wears their face and their garments and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared. The traitor is the plague."
(1) OBAMA has set back racial and gender fairness by 30 years in the nation where the "white man" set slaves free, gave women the vote, and gave blacks the vote.
(2) OBAMA has blamed the previous administration for the $500 billion deficit while "fixing" the economy by quadrupling the deficit.
(3) OBAMA has complained about the "secrecy" of the previous administration by being the most secretive administration in history.
(4) OBAMA played the "race card" in the election while 95% of blacks voted for him primarily because of his race.
(5) OBAMA claims whites are racists while 43% of white voters voted for him primarily BECAUSE of his race.
(6) OBAMA has used the "Rules for Radicals" to gain power for himself and the Liberal Wing only to cry foul when the very same "Rules for Radicals" is used against him.
(7) OBAMA will set a record for being the President who became a "lame duck" at the earliest point in any presidency.
(8) OBAMA is the first President to have as his running mate a person who himself ran for President twice and was soundly reject by his own party. So much for being a President who cares about what his own party wants.
(9) OBAMA has set a record for the use of the words "I", "me", "mine", "inherited", "unfair", and "I won" in Presidential speeches.

@Ex Pat, climate change is determined by two things: Sun spots and solar flares. The problem for the alarmists is that nothing can be done about them, thus no money in it. And you are correct that there is a difference between weather and climate, as you have pointed out to some posters. That is hypocritical of you considering the left's screaming about the swallows returning to San Juan Capistrano two days early one spring, just to name one example. Remember the story about drowning polar bears because there wasn't enough sea ice? Turns out that polar bear populations are actually increasing. Canada is thinking about doing a limited cull, there are so many. Try to get all the facts next time and I won't have to take you to school. Have a nice day and stay warm!
Heat_Mizer
That`s right diverdown... The global warming scam artists can`t tax the sun, water vapor, the clouds, el nino, or ocean oscillations, so they pick CO2 to go after, even though CO2 is neither a pollutant nor a climate driver, and they know it... Al (100 million dollar man) Gore said it best, " The big problem is cars, coal, and buildings", which they can tax as high as they want, because to the alarmists, those three things are evil.

Has anyone asked Al Gore why he had two young girls running around the Chinese/N Korean border? Was there really a need for that? Or were they doing a story on Global Warming?

Why didn't Fat Albert go instead of sending the young ladies.
