Is global warming an inconvenient untruth?
One hundred thousand years is a very short time, geologically speaking. Yet, we are told by geologists that 100,000 years ago the land my house sits on was covered by a glacier more than 10,000 feet thick (two miles in depth). Indeed, all of northern Idaho, half of Montana and part of Washington were covered by the same glacier.
We also are told by anthropologists that Indian tribes were living in the same areas as far back as more than 1,000 years ago by evidence collected in soil digs.
My question, then, to Al Gore and all the other sniveling, whining, global warming fanatics is this: Who were the people in the world during this 99,000-year period causing enough greenhouse gases to make this glacier melt? A very inconvenient truth.
