Perhaps Progress?

I love it. There are more and more articles coming out lately throwing in to serious question the enviro-activists' panic of global environmental destruction. Take, for instance, these gems:

1. Significant ice growth at the Arctic cap. Yes, growth.
2. This scientist believes Co2 doesn't cause global warming. Better hope Al Gore isn't funding his research...

I've long thought our ideas of global warming were suspect. Growing up with a meterologist as a grandfather, I've seen how average temperatures change sporadically up and down over the long term. Further, many "global warming believers" also believe the Earth is millions, if not billions of years old. With that in mind, we have only a hundred years or so of recorded data on global temperature. That, in any statistics class, is the textbook definition of "statistically insignificant."
