An Inconvenient Agenda





Noam Mohr is a physicist whose "hockey stick" graph showing the earth's warming trend was prominently featured in "An Inconvenient truth." Prior to the movie's release an academic review of the data showed some irregularities which were subsequently corrected. But the new graph proved, ironically, that the truth was inconvenient to the movie's producers who opted with the original graph because it was "less confusing".

Now Noam Mohr is being cast aside by the global warming community because he has published that environmental groups have hijacked his studies and twisted them to say carbon dioxide is the main component in global warming. Mohr further says that it is methane and other greenhouse gasses that have the greatest impact on the warming patterns.

And Mohr's solution? The most dramatic way to decrease methane is for everyone to become vegetarians!

A New Global Warming Strategy: by Noam Mohr

He is not the only scientist to say methane and other green house gasses are greater contributors to global warming than carbon dioxide. But he is the only one to propose vegetarianism as a possible fix.

Which is not what those poised to rake in a few billion in donations and carbon offsets want to be heard. Fortunately for them Mohr is committed enough to his ideals that he is quite a prolific author and even the environmentalists have begun to question his motives (and sanity). Kosher slaughterhouse horrors highlight cruelty of modern meat by Noam Mohr. So the carbon dioxide cultists are casting aside his recent articles saying that he has an agenda to further his cause of vegetarianism. But they are somehow comfortable misrepresenting his earlier data on global warming.

It appears as they too have an agenda... which I believe is greed. The carbon dioxide cultists have devleoped an ingenious system of polluting, and then paying others not to pollute for them. They call these offset credits. You calculate how much carbon you "generate" and pay one of the approved offset brokers who forward that money to companies who use low pollution technoolgy... after deducting a small administrative fee.
