| Arizona Quits Climate Pact |
| 2010-02-14 |
| The Grand Canyon State avoids a big economic hole by suspending its participation in a multistate initiative to fight climate change. As climate fraud is exposed, economic reality sets in. Will California follow? Not since King Canute have government officials engaged in an exercise as futile as in 2007, when seven U.S. states and four Canadian provinces got together to form something called the Western Regional Climate Action Initiative to reduce regional greenhouse gas emissions starting in 2012. Leading the charge for the pact was California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who insisted, "We cannot wait for the United States government to get its act together on the environment." At the time he said the regional agreement "sets the stage for a regional cap-and-trade program which will provide a powerful framework for developing a national cap-and-trade program." Since then, the nation has slid into a recession, and the only thing man-made about climate change has been the manipulated and manufactured claims that we are doomed if we don't act to fight it. |

| #4 Even if Arnie pivoted, there are plently of whack job bureaucrats in Sacramento who will never get off the scam-bus and continue to put small businesses out to pasture...even at a time when California is mire in red ink. |

| #2 Science is when you can prove your theory over consistently: Today Fire = Hot, Tomorrow Fire = Hot. I can produce a flame and demonstrate that fire is indeed hot. The MMGWA crowd wants you believe that fire can be cold or hot depending on how WE interpret the data. And no you can't see our data. |

| #1 Arnie has been listening to "Science Advisor" Maria much too long. Arnie and the rest need a clue: As the earth revolves around the sun, the place where light shines the brightest changes. This motion gives us the different seasons. For instance, the poles receive less light than does the equator because of the angle that the land around the poles receive the sunÂ’s light. When the north pole is tilted toward the sun, the northern hemisphere is presented to the sun at a greater angle than the southern hemisphere and the northern hemisphere gets warmer. When this happens, the northern hemisphere gets summer while the southern hemisphere gets winter. When the south pole is tilted toward the sun, the two seasons reverse hemispheres. |
