Here is a summary of the Global Warming Cult’s beleifs
1. The world has been warming for a century, and this warming is beyond any cyclical variation we have seen over the last 1000 or more years, and beyond the range of what we might expect from natural climate variations.
2. Almost all of the warming in the second half of the 20th century, perhaps a half a degree Celsius, is due to man-made greenhouse gasses, particularly CO2.
3. In the next 100 years, CO2 produced by man will cause a lot more warming, from as low as three degrees C to as high as 8 or 10 degrees C.
4. Positive feedbacks in the climate, like increased humidity, will act to triple the warming from CO2, leading to these higher forecasts and perhaps even a tipping point into climactic disaster.
5. The bad effects of warming greatly outweigh the positive effects, and we are already seeing the front end of these bad effects today (polar bears dying, glaciers melting, etc).
6 . These bad effects, or even a small risk of them, easily justify massive intervention today in reducing economic activity and greenhouse gas production.
CO2 vs. Solar Irradiance
Logical thinking test:
If you walked into a room and found that it was too hot, what would you do first?….
a) Measure the air to find anomalies in the mix of gasses
b) Count the number of people in the room, to assess the effect of body heat on the room’s temperature
c) Check the thermostat on the furnace
If you answered “a”, you would make a fine environmentalist wacko!
If you answered “b”, you would be one of those who the environmentalist hates.
If you answered “c”, you would be too smart for all of this and need to move on to another topic!
The environmentalists think that the warming can only be by CO2 gas. Surely, the sun’s heat could have nothing to do with it, they say! They are obsessed with this radical increase of CO2 gas: it has only increased by 0.009% since they began measuring it!
It turns out, interestingly, that solar irradiance may be close to its highest point in centuries. Al Gore says that current global temperatures are the highest they have been in 1000 years. A new study by the Institute of Astronomy in Zurich says that the “sun is more active now than it has been at anytime in the previous 1,000 years.” Related?
Sunspots have been monitored on the Sun since 1610, shortly after the invention of the telescope. They provide the longest-running direct measurement of our star’s activity.
Maybe we should be attempting to fight sunspots on the Sun!…
Alarmism
“ Our Global Warming alarmists still predict the Earth is in store for catastrophic warming in this century. IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) computer models have predicted global warming of 1° F per decade and 5-6° C (10-11° F) by 2100, which would cause global catastrophe with ramifications for human life, natural habitat, energy and water resources, and food production. All of this is predicated on the assumption that global warming is caused by increasing atmospheric CO2 and that CO2 will continue to rise rapidly.
However, records of past climate changes suggest an altogether different scenario for the 21st century. Rather than drastic global warming at a rate of 0.5 ° C (1° F) per decade, historic records of past natural cycles suggest global cooling for the first several decades of the 21st century to about 2030, followed by global warming from about 2030 to about 2060, and renewed global cooling from 2060 to 2090. Climatic fluctuations over the past several hundred years suggest ~30 year climatic cycles of global warming and cooling.” (Don J. Easterbrook, Professor Emeritus of Geology at Western Washington University. Bellingham, WA.)
(The following is taken from an article in The London Telegraph by Professor Bob Carter, a Geologist at James Cook University of Queensland, Australia)
” For many years now, human-caused climate change has been viewed as a large and urgent problem. In truth, however, the biggest part of the 
problem is neither environmental nor scientific, but a self-created political fiasco. Consider the simple fact, drawn from the official temperature records of the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, that for the years 1998-2005 global average temperature did not increase … In response to these facts, a global warming devotee will chuckle and say ‘how silly to judge climate change over such a short period’. Yet in the next breath, the same person will assure you that the 28-year-long period of warming which occurred between 1970 and 1998 constitutes a dangerous (and man-made) warming.
Our devotee will also pass by the curious additional facts that a period of similar warming occurred between 1918 and 1940, well prior to the greatest phase of world industrialisation, and that cooling occurred between 1940 and 1965, at precisely the time that human emissions were increasing at their greatest rate. Does something not strike you as odd here? That industrial carbon dioxide is not the primary cause of earth’s recent decadal-scale temperature changes doesn’t seem at all odd to many thousands of independent scientists. They have long appreciated–ever since the early 1990s, when the global warming bandwagon first started to roll behind the gravy train of the UN Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)–that such short-term climate fluctuations are chiefly of natural origin. Yet the public appears to be largely convinced otherwise. How is this possible? Since the early 1990s, the columns of many leading newspapers and magazines, worldwide, have carried an increasing stream of alarmist letters and articles on hypothetical, human-caused climate change. …. many involve such deep dreaming, or ignorance of scientific facts and principles, that they are akin to nonsense. The problem here is not that of climate changer per se, but rather that of the sophisticated scientific brainwashing that has been inflicted on the public, bureaucrats and politicians alike. The essence of the issue is this: Climate changes naturally all the time, partly in predictable cycles, and partly in unpredictable shorter rhythms and rapid episodic shifts, some of the causes of which remain unknown.” (end Carter quote)
My main concern with the Global Warming hysteria is that it might very well be used by Satan to get all the nations of the earth united behind a common cause that they all can agree on. There will be (and already is) International Environmental Police who control nations, cities, towns, and ultimately, people! There will be one person who is at the top of this environmental global force…he will have, theoretically, control over the whole world…to some extent. This may very well be the main, or at least one, avenue that the AntiChrist uses to seize popularity and control of the nations. Rev 13:16-17 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell , save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
We are the rulers of this creation
G e 1:28-30 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over
the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
God has placed earth in our hands; we humans have dominion over it. We need to be concerned about how we treat it. There are two extremes: Environmentalist wacko’s, and so-called Christian wacko’s (who aren’t the least bit worried about pollution, endangered species, cutting down trees, building factories, etc).
Enviro-paganism
(The following is condensed and adapted from Chapter 11 of “Occult Invasion: The Subtle Seduction of the World and Church”, by Dave Hunt. Tthis appeared in an article by David Cloud)
The ecological movement has become more religion than science. Thomas Berry of Fordham University calls man’s ecological responsibility “preeminently a religious and spiritual task”. The 1990 Global Forum held in Moscow, with delegates from 83 countries, called for “a global council of spiritual leaders” and the “creation of an inter-faith prayer.. .a new spiritual and ethical basis for human activities on Earth.”
Carl Sagan, the recently deceased high priest of cosmos worship, declared that “any efforts to safeguard and cherish the environment need to be infused with a vision of the sacred.” What could an atheist have meant by “sacred”? Ten years earlier he had said, “If we must worship a power greater than ourselves, does it not make sense to revere the Sun and stars?”
No, it does not. Reverence does not pertain to things but to persons. To reverence the impersonal creation instead of the personal God who created us is a perversion designed for escaping moral accountability to the Creator. God indicts those who worship the creation instead of its Creator (Rom 1:18-23); and warns of the corruption of morals and behavior which results (24-32).
This pagan spirituality [associated with ‘environmentalism’] is ideal for uniting all religions together with science into a world religion. Al Gore, a Southern Baptist, has said that ecological problems can only be solved through a “new spirituality” common to all religions and that saving the Earth “requires reuniting science and religion.”
Addressing the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the United Nations Secretary-General called the world back to the pagan worship of nature:
“To the ancients, the Nile was a god to be venerated, as was the Rhine, an infinite source of European myths, or the Amazonian forest, the mother of forests. Throughout the world, nature was the abode of the divinities that gave the forest, the desert or the mountains a personality which commanded worship and respect. The Earth had a soul. To find that soul again, to give it new life, that is the essence of Rio.”
On January 23, 1997, “The Gaia Mind Project” held a “Simultaneous Global Meditation and Prayer.” The goal was to “initiate a shift in our understanding of our relationship with Gaia … in which we recognize ourselves as the living Earth’s emergent self-reflexive consciousness … [and] to help … potentiate global healing.”
One of the ecumenical environmental groups which evangelicals have joined is the “Joint Appeal by Religion and Science for the Environment.” It is 
based at New York’s huge Episcopal Cathedral of St. John the Divine, a bastion of New Age/ecumenical/Antichrist deception, where a female “Christa” was displayed on a cross. Its appalling dean, James Parks Morton, declares, “We are increasingly being called to realize that the body of Christ is the earth—the biosphere—the skin that includes all of us.” Similarly, Richard Austin, one of the speakers at the EarthCare ‘96 conference, declared: “Christ is fully God and fully Earth. … He came to save the world … I hear the Bible calling us to redeem from destruction the Creation.”
In fact, Christ said that He was “not of this world” (Jn 8:23). He urged His own to be heavenly minded, not earthly minded (Mt. 6:19-21; Lk 12:33; Jn 12:25; 18:36), and promised to take them out of this world to His Father’s house of many mansions (Jn. 14:1-6). This world is “reserved unto fire against the day of judgment … the heavens shall pass away with a great noise … the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up” (2 Pet. 3:7,10).
The environmental movement… is a humanistic attempt to restore the lost paradise of Eden without acknowledging that the problem is man’s rebellion against his Creator and that Christ’s death for our sins is the only basis upon which there can be reconciliation. Christianity is subtly being redefined.
There is no “right” or “wrong” in nature. Clearly it is not “wrong” for a volcano to spew forth poisonous gases. Whatever nature and her offspring do is simply “natural.” If man is a product of nature through evolution, then whatever he does must likewise be natural. As for all the furor raised over the possible extinction of a species, such as the spotted owl, hasn’t evolution been doing away with species for millions of years? By destroying creatures standing in his way, man, the ultimate predator, would only be fulfilling his evolutionary purpose as the “fittest” species able to “survive” at the expense of all others.
One cannot logically believe both in evolution and the environmental movement. Evolutionists should neither be concerned for “endangered species” nor for the ecological well-being of this planet. If man, as a result of the evolution of his brain and nervous system, succeeds in destroying the earth in a nuclear holocaust or ecological disaster, that must be accepted as a natural act in the evolving universe.
The solution to human problems is not in hugging trees and getting in touch with nature and listening to the earth, but in getting in touch through Jesus Christ with the God [the Father]… and in submitting to His will.
As Bereans, we need to challenge Christians biblically concerning their involvement in a pagan green movement. And we need to take advantage of legitimate ecological concerns to explain to the unsaved their cause and the only solution in Christ.
God’s Divine Environmentalism
Though we believe that God has put man in the world to use it and not to abuse it, and though we are glad for clean air and rivers and most definitely support reasonable environmental laws, environmentalism should not be the focus of the child of God. One can read the New Testament from beginning to end and not see as much as a hint of support for environmentalism. The focus of the Christian life and the emphasis of the Great Commission is on preaching the gospel and thus snatching sinners from the judgment to come before it is eternally too late. The New Testament presents this judgment as imminent and therefore as a motivation to be diligent in the task that Christ has left us (Mat. 28:19-20; Mark 16:15; Acts 1:8). The last book of the Bible describes in great detail the judgment to come, and it will be a total environmental disaster, but one that God Himself will produce. (David Cloud)
“The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; and the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; and the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise” (Rev. 8:7-12).
