Time: Global Warming strikes again…with Asthma!!!

That’s right folks! The unseen deadly force that is Global Warming, being thwarted lately with lack of Sunspots and decreasing Global temperatures, has finally devised its plan to fight back against the rising reputation it has for being a big phoney. How? By going straight for your allergies!

Time seems to think that the rise in global temperatures, which have actually been decreasing, will be good for planets due to all of that nasty carbon dioxide in the air. Plants eat that stuff up.

Anyways, if you global warming alarmists thought that your allergies were bad then you just wait. Global Warming is about to rock your socks off, so I suggest you get that Claritin pack ready.

Recent research suggests that global warming will also exacerbate respiratory allergies, as higher CO2 concentrations lead to vast increases in ragweed pollen production. “There’s no denying there’s a change,” says Paul Ratner, an immunologist with the American College of Allergies. “It’s definitely bad news for people who have allergies.”

OH NOES!!!

It gets worse from here folks:

The World Health Organization estimates that 300 million people globally have asthma, with 250,000 dying from the disease each year. That rate is up considerably over the past few decades, and scientists say a number of factors could be at work. One clear reason is rising levels of ragweed pollen — which can be connected directly to rising levels of CO2.

Don’t bother looking for a graph or anything that actually proces that statement, for Time has found it convenient to omit any type of evidnce that might back up that claim. However, I imagine that if flowers were FLOURISHING that pollen levels would rise, but then again I thought that if plants were flourishing then there would be more of them to gobble up all of the excess CO2.

So, what can people do to stop the rise of monster allergies and prevent an M. Knight Shamalamaramabam type “Happening” from coming to fruition?

So, what can be done to help millions of sneezing, watery-eyed patients? As allergy sufferers already know, not a whole lot. But any action taken to control rising CO2 levels might at least help stem the increase in global allergy rates. So far, the global asthma epidemic shows no signs of abating, and in a warmer world, effective treatments for allergies will likely become even more important. One option for allergy suffers might be to start agitating for action to reduce CO2 emissions — after all, the only thing you have to lose is your breath.

And there you go. Time decides to play on peoples fear of death to try and scare them in to supporting alarmist legislation that would seriously hinder our economy. It’s already bad enough here in America with the wall-street woes getting everyone down, so why would we want to impose more taxation on the American people by creating new taxes for things like CO2 caps and carbon credits.

However, that’s not what Time looks at. The left doesn’t care how much money you lose or how miserable your life becomes financially. Oh no, they wish to sacrifice your comfortable living to “save the planet” even though their alarmist science has been constantly refuted and challenged every time they try and push that same old environmentalist wacko mantra. The REAL solution to battling your allergies is a doctor visit and some claritin and not some stupid environmentalist whack-jobs economically disasterous plans for combating “global warming”.

    This earth is self replentising, self cleaning and self sustaining. Scientist prove themselves wrong on a daily basis. They have a long history of fraud, theory, and an ability to manipulate statistics to favor their view of what is happening.

    Here is an example of statistical manipulation, the average lifespan has climbed in this century by leaps and bounds, right? Yet, If you take one simple factor out, you see that the average lifespan has declined, and that is Infant mortality. We have made saving babies more effecient, but lifespan has actualy dropped, but because of averages, the total numbers have raised while the ones who do make it to adulthood live a much shorter life than the statistics suggest.

    I suppose that there are falicies in the weather and it is beintg used as a political tool.

    They will keep pushing “Global Warming” with limited and skewed data to fit the agenda, and the scientist that go against the grain will continue to lose funding.

    Want to know why this is for political gain? go to carbontax.org and read the plan.

    A World carbon tax creates a world government, it is that simple. so just agree, do not think for yourself and follow directions and be good little world citizens. Better go with this or tomorrow the sky may be falling!
