It was a sad night for the Spin Zone.
Bill O’Reilly told viewers on Monday that since 2001 we have witnessed “7 of the hottest years” on record.
Not true. It is well documented that the earth has experienced a cooling trend since 2001. In fact, the Earth has cooled .74°F since former Vice President Al Gore released “An Inconvenient Truth” in 2006.
From the the Global Warming Spin Factor:
As for Bill O’Reilly’s claim that since 2001 we have witnessed “7 of the hottest years ever recorded” is flat out wrong. This data was refuted first in late 2007.
The American Spectator reported on the faulty data back in late 2007:
The real 15 hottest years are spread over seven decades. Eight occurred before the chief “greenhouse gas,” atmospheric carbon dioxide, began its sharp rise; seven occurred afterwards.
By the way, another 250 children under the age of five died in a wave of intensely cold weather in Peru last week.
Global cooling kills.
UPDATE: Al Gore sued by 30,000 scientists for fraud including 9,000 PhD’s.
