In the 1990s, politicians and some scientists began to insist that there is a “global warming” caused by the burning of oil and the release of chlorofluorocarbons, a chemical.  They blamed factory smokestacks and automobiles, and especially refrigerators and air conditioners.  The loss of trees in rain forests was also supposedly a cause of global warming.  Regulators began banning the use of certain chemicals in hairspray, and the Kyoto (Japan) Treaty was proposed to limit the pollution each country could generate each year.  But the United States Senate has never ratified the Kyoto Treaty.

In fact, worldwide temperatures (as measured by satellites) have not increased in nearly 20 years, and record cold temperatures have been recorded in many parts of the world, such as in the United States during this past winter.  Proponents of “global warming” (including Al Gore) refuse to debate this, however, and insist that the science is settled in favor of their theory, and that more governmental controls of energy are needed.  This is a familiar pattern by liberals:  they always seek theories for expanding government and their own power.

President Barack Obama has called on Congress to pass a laws to place limits on energy production, particularly the production of coal, supposedly to help reduce the so-called “global warming.”  After years of evidence that the world is not warming, liberals began to use the term “climate change” instead.
