Climate Cooling

Today the EPA declared global warming a public danger. Let's dispose of this one at least. Via Powerline:

Earlier this month, the Heartland Institute sponsored the 2009 International Conference on Climate Change in New York. The Conference differed from most such events in that it was devoted to science, not politics or propaganda. Heartland has now made the materials presented at the conference available online, here.

There is no emergency.
And even if there were, it's not man-made.We can't afford this hysteria. More here. And how about this UW-Milwaukee study: Scientists Claim Earth Is Undergoing Natural Climate Shift

More: And then we read goofy alarmist stories about polar ice melting--but it may not happen for millennia--a thousand years, omg run screaming!!!! Tribune: "Great Polar Melt-off Feared" Feared!!!!:

"Even if it might take a thousand years or more for the West Antarctic Ice Sheet to disappear, the melting before then could be significant enough that humans should really be taking note ... as we worry about our future generations," Powell said.
