Global Cooling

This article by the National Post cites one of the leading voices in global warming backtracking. To quote directly from the article:
"The global warming theory has been based all along on the idea that the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans would absorb much of the greenhouse warming caused by a rise in man-made carbon dioxide, then they would let off that heat and warm the atmosphere and the land.
But as Prof. Latif pointed out, the Atlantic, and particularly the North Atlantic, has been cooling instead. And it looks set to continue a cooling phase for 10 to 20 more years. "How much?" he wondered before the assembled delegates. "The jury is still out."
But it is increasingly clear that global warming is on hiatus for the time being. And that is not what the UN, the alarmist scientists or environmentalists predicted. For the past dozen years, since the Kyoto accords were signed in 1997, it has been beaten into our heads with the force and repetition of the rowing drum on a slave galley that the Earth is warming and will continue to warm rapidly through this century until we reach deadly temperatures around 2100."
Hmm...this is an interesting development. Now I am all for taking care of the Earth and making sure we don't totally destroy the livelihood of posterity by our consumption of resources. However, this does help me breathe easier knowing that the global warming apocalypse won't come until I am in my 50s. At least I have a few more years to live and serve others before the world melts.
