On Monday, AP Science Writer Seth Borenstein wrote a story with this headline: “Obama left with little time to curb global warming.” Notice I said a news story, not an editorial. The story included this paragraph:

Mother Nature, of course, is oblivious to the federal government’s machinations. Ironically, 2008 is on pace to be a slightly cooler year in a steadily rising temperature trend line. Experts say it’s thanks to a La Nina weather variation. While skeptics are already using it as evidence of some kind of cooling trend, it actually illustrates how fast the world is warming.

Aside from the amazing fact that Borenstein seems to have actually interviewed Mother Nature, his absurd claim that cold is proof of hot shows how desperate global-warming alarmists have become.

Borenstein seems not to have noticed that the air is coming out of the crazy man-made global-warming bubble that was foisted on the world by Al Gore, a man who has become a pitiful, hysterical caricature of himself. A day after his story appeared, a group of scientists skeptical of man-made global warming called his story “irrational hysteria,” “horrifically bad” and “incredibly biased.”

And today, just four days after Borenstein’s story first appeard, comes news that yet another meteorologist, CNN’s Chad Myers,says the notion of man-made global warming is bunk:

“You know, to think that we could affect weather all that much is pretty arrogant,” Myers said. “Mother Nature is so big, the world is so big, the oceans are so big – I think we’re going to die from a lack of fresh water or we’re going to die from ocean acidification before we die from global warming, for sure.”

Myers is the second CNN meteorologist to challenge the global warming conventions common in the media.

Look for more examples of the “settled science” of man-made global warming becoming even more unsettled in the near future.
