" The evidence continues to mount that the IPCC models are too sensitive, and therefore produce too much global warming. If climate sensitivity is indeed considerably less than the IPCC claims it to be, then increasing CO2 alone can not explain r...
In this 4-part link, Viscount Monckton, in an open letter to US presidential candidate Senator John McCain, treats the Republican candidate to a longish but very readable, and convincing lesson on the whole issue of "global warming" and emissions trading, which ought to be required reading for polit...
"The climate change problem is inherently one of making decisions over the very long term, under conditions of considerable uncertainty. Misrepresenting the problem as one where we can (with any degree of accuracy) set the global thermostat by limiting atmospheric CO2 to any particular level is no...
"With so many scientific papers chasing so few pages in the most prestigious journals, the winners could be the ones most likely to oversell themselves—to trumpet dramatic or important results that later turn out to be false. This would produce a distorted picture of scientific knowledge, with less...
"The recent atmospheric global temperature anomalies of the Earth have been shown to consist of independent effects in different latitude bands. Te tropical latitude band variations are strongly correlated with ENSO (El Nino Southern Oscillation) effects. The maximum seen in 1998 is due to El Nino o...
FAKING THE FIGURES
I just came across this statement in the NCDC website
"NOTE: From February 2006 through April 14, 2006, the anomalies provided from the links below were inadvertently provided as departures from the 1961-1990 average. Anom...
The most dishonest statement in the IPCC "Climate Change 2007 is as follows:
“A common confusion between weather and climate arises when scientists are asked how they can predict climate 50 years from now when they cannot predict...
"According to Bertrand Russell, 'the whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts'. Unfortunately, we expect our politicians to have all the answers, and our politicians expect likewise from their advisers. So we get...
Eminent US climatologist Richard Lindzen questions the efficacy of climate science. In particular, he shows how political bodies act to control scientific institutions, how scientists adjust both data and even theory to accommodate politically correct positions, and how opposition to these positions...
Let us assume global warming is happening. Let us assume too that it is doing so at a rapid pace. What should we do about it? There are two very basic approaches. Either we can attempt to mitigate the problem by direct or indirect means, or we can go with the flow, and adapt to a warmer world. Let's...
The supposed evils of uranium mining and nuclear power are used by the Greens to frighten the populace into supporting them. Also, and to a greater extent, their "Theory of Cataclysmic Global Warming" does the same thing. Scare mongering is a forte of the radical environmental movement, who believe...
"IPCC does not have ambition to present an objective climatic situation, but rather 'to shock' the people to take actions which would bring no climatic effects (NIPCC, 2008) , but rather di...
A new paper by Lord Monckton concludes: "Some reasons why the IPCC’s estimates may be excessive and unsafe are explained. More importantly, the conclusion is that, perhaps, there is no 'climate crisis', and that currently-fashionable efforts by governments to reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions are p...
"There is no evidence, neither empirical nor theoretical, that carbon dioxide emissions from industrial and other human activities can have any effect on global climate. In addition, the claims so often made that there is a consensus among climate scientists that global warming is the result of incr...
"We are also led to believe that Chapter 9 [of 2007 IPCC report] was widely supported by hundreds of reviewers, but just 62 IPCC reviewers commented on its penultimate draft. Only five of those reviewers endorsed it but four of the five appear to have vested interests and the other made just one co...
