Whether global warming is real or not, some people are using the issue to make billions of dollars, start a one-world government-- and control our lives, from the cars we drive to the food we eat!

Delingpole was among the leading journalists who reported the Climategate scandal, in which he analyzed e-mails among leading climate scientists that had been hacked and posted on the web. What he discovered was a pattern of purposeful and coordinated efforts to:
* Manipulate the data supporting the claims of a sudden and dangerous increase in the earth's temperature;
*Not disclose private doubts about whether the world was actually heating up;
* Suppress evidence that contradicted the hypothesis of anthropogenic global warming (AGW);
* Disguise the facts around the Medieval Warm Period, when the earth was warmer that it is today;
* Suppress opposition by squeezing dissenting scientists out of the peer review process.
Normally, disclosure of fraudulent behavior on this scale would throw the proponents of any position into disrepute and spell the end of their political power. Not so with the advocates of global warming.
The reason: Global warming is not about science, but about politics -- that is, about expanding the power of elites using the coercive instruments of government to control the lives of people everywhere. Just as the governing class embraces ineffective Keynesian stimulus spending to justify expansion of government, they now extol AGW as the basis for increasing their power to rule over the rest of us.
I remember that in the 1970s, "scientists" had used computer models to "prove" that the increase in industrial activity was about to trigger another ice age. The villains and solutions were the same as with global warming: Economic growth, rising living standards, capitalism and increased economic activity were going to destroy the planet. Then, as now, reduction in the use of fossil fuels, de facto restrictions on the use of automobiles, higher taxes and forced reductions in living standards were the recommended policy responses.
What makes AGW different is that the alleged pollutant is carbon dioxide -- an odorless, colorless gas that is the basis of all life and human activity. Regulation of CO2 is the gateway for those who control government to regulate all economic and most human activity.
