Global Warming – Fact Or Fantasy?
Dr. Jose A. Bardelas Jr. MD Global Warming Facts By Duane Flowers
In this article I’d like to look at global warming and whether in reality it is fact or fiction or fact or fantasy, as indeed the case may be.
There have been a lot of reports in the newspaper over the last few years about global warming and frankly I just don’t see it. Looking around me for the last two years, we’ve had the shortest summers that we’ve had in a long time and while the winters may have little less snow than I remember as a kid they are far from anything resembling the doom and gloom being prophesied.
This year we barely had a summer August which is generally our hottest month surrounded by September and July being pretty hot themselves, this year it just didn’t happen. We had a couple weeks of what I’d call summer, reminiscent of the hot and humid summers of 10 years ago, but it basically it just wasn’t there and now it seems we skipped directly into winter.
Praying Mantis
The praying mantis here in Japan has always been a good indicator of what’s to come, at least as far as natural indicators go, in that they lay their eggs on the ground when they are expecting a mild winter and they lay their eggs high up in the trees when they’re expecting colder winters. The higher up they go the colder the winter they’re expecting and for the first time in many, many years the praying mantis has laid its eggs up high in the trees which means this winter is going to be a cold one.
So with the new influenza peaking right about now and winter right around the corner with the old influenza coming on its heels I think the especially cold winter that’s coming is one to be very careful about and it also tends to goes against all these warnings of doom and gloom and global warming, at least from the evidence I’ve seen so far.
Michael Crichton
The latest and unfortunately last Michael Crichton book called “State of Fear” talks about global warming from a very interesting aspect. In my opinion Michael Crichton was a genius, he really understood science and medicine and all the things he wrote about. He actually understood them more deeply than most of us. For those not familiar with the name right off the bat Michael Crichton wrote “Jurassic Park”, “Rising Sun”, “Timeline”, “Congo”, “Sphere” and a slew of other bestsellers that became blockbusters as well.
The thing with the movies is that a lot of the science was taken out, the research the technical details, etc. were all made into something that non-technical movie watchers would enjoy. But if you read the books you’ll find all that detail. In Jurassic Park you can learn all about DNA and details about how that kind of DNA cloning is theoretically quite possible.
But in his latest book, “State of Fear” he goes deeply into the research about global warming. He suggests that many of the facts that are out there about Global Warming are just wrong and are not at all based on the research. The doctors and/or scientists that are putting forward a lot of this research are basically quacks, which is basically what he is saying, and that many of them are the kind of researchers that will write whatever you want if they’re paid enough. Whether this is true or not I don’t know in that I haven’t read any of the research myself, but for someone like Michael Crichton to suggest it, it is definitely food for thought.
