Hmmm some say "alarmists"OTTAWA - James Lovelock, one of the world's most revered environmentalists and scientists, has admitted to being an "alarmist" about climate change.
Lovelock now admits he went too far.
The 92-year-old now says his warnings were too alarmist, and that he and many others, including former U.S. vice-president Al Gore, were "extrapolating too far" from computer models.
"The climate is doing its usual tricks. There's nothing much really happening yet. We were supposed to be halfway toward a frying world now," he told MSNBC.
"The world has not warmed up very much since the millennium. Twelve years is a reasonable time ... it (the temperature) has stayed almost constant, whereas it should have been rising -- carbon dioxide is rising, no question about that."
Lovelock was first to figure out how to detect CFCs that experts said were creating holes in the ozone layer,
The Queen has honoured him and NASA uses his inventions, but John Bennett of the Sierra Club of Canada is not so impressed.
Bennett still holds Al Gore in high regard, despite Lovelock saying he was being an alarmist too.
and the old jerks vs creeps ideaWhat else has the press, in its wisdom, decided to keep from the public in recent days? One eye-opener is the advance of ice in both the Arctic and the Antarctic — both are now at or above average levels. Another is an announcement by researchers at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan and the Riken research foundation that the world may be heading into a prolonged period of global cooling — the Japanese study compared sunspot activity today with sunspots that preceded the Little Ice Age in the 17th century to find close similarities.
jerks are pretty good at accounting for evolution within their ideas as a void in the ecosystem is created and it rapidly filled through mutations, some of which work well, some don't.The freshest story of all this week, which by rights should have rated stellar coverage, involved a powerful refutation of Darwin’s theory of evolution and its mechanism, natural selection. “Natural selection acts only by taking advantage of slight successive variations; she can never take a great and sudden leap, but must advance by short and sure, though slow steps,” Darwin wrote. Now, suggests a study published by the U.K.’s Royal Astronomical Society, life on Earth did not evolve smoothly at all: To the contrary, the planet owes its diversity to intense periods of productivity interspersed with immense periods of stagnancy. The mechanism for this evolving theory? Climate change on Earth, driven by galactic cosmic rays originating from exploding supernovas — the final act of stars.

Folks, how many pipelines do we already have crossing the province. Why is one more an issue?
The Gitxsan did a deal, they have since backed out of (Indian givers) for $7mil, and the route doesn't even cross their land claims.
