Sun Causing Mars to Warm Called “Controversial”

by Rush Limbaugh - May 19,2011

RUSH: I have this from National Geographic’s website. “Simultaneous warming on Earth and Mars suggests that our planet’s recent climate changes have a natural ‘and not a human-induced’ cause, according to one scientist’s controversial theory.” One scientist’s controversial theory is that the sun plays a major role. That is what’s controversial in the global warming movement, that the sun — the only source of energy in our planet, the only source of heat, the only source of any energy, the sun. Reporting that that may be a factor in how warm or cold it is, is controversial.
That’s how out of whack this whole movement is.

“Earth is currently experiencing rapid warming, which the vast majority of climate scientists says is due to humans pumping huge amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Mars, too, appears to be enjoying more mild and balmy temperatures. In 2005 data from NASA’s Mars Global Surveyor and Odyssey missions revealed that the carbon dioxide ‘ice caps’ near Mars’s south pole had been diminishing for three summers in a row.” (whispering) There’s global warming on Mars. Now, there aren’t any humans there, and this would be a huge stretch, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they blame it on the Global Surveyor and if they blame it on these Odyssey missions. We’ve put machines up there. They’re traveling around, going all over the Mars surface, and that’s creating a bunch of pollution that we — men and women on the earth, scientists, NASA — cause. We’re the ones responsible for the warming on Mars. I’m really curious if I’m going to maintain sanity during the length of time this debate is going to be going on. This is so obviously one of the biggest scams to come from the left, and it’s so typical of every other scam that they’ve run.
