Today Is A Great Day For Skeptics
The tides are turning people!!! After a very successful documentary, an Academy Award, a Nobel prize and lots of press Al Gore and his IPCC team’s warming has slowed. His movement has been losing steam for quite some time. Recently a few studies have come out that throw ice on the idea of man-made warming.
The first study was from members of the American Physical Society, a group representing nearly 50,000 physicists across the world. This group previous considered the evidence for man-made global warming “incontrovertible.” Now the group has done an about face. All it took was for a few of the members to question the methods used by the IPCC to evaluate certain factors that they say are a root cause of warming. I’ll let you read the article.
The second article was from a group of Australian scientists who are predicting a 20-30 year cooling cycle. These guys subscribe to my theory that global climate tracks closely with solar activity. Apparently the has been less active than usual lately and will continue to do so.
Finally, there is the third article. This one is the funniest to me and it does support man-made global warming, but not in a way that would think. Supposedly Europe has seen higher than average warming when compared to the other continents. A scientific study performed in Germany has found that the temperature increase is not due to greater carbon emissions, rather it is because of cleaner air! In the 80’s many nations enacted clean air legislation to get rid of some nasty pollutants. Well it turns out that these pollutants may have acted as a shield by blocking some of the sunlight. Now that the air is cleaner this sun filter is no longer present and the surface of the earth in these areas is brighter than it was.
Regardless of these studies, those belonging to the religion of climate change will dismiss them and continue on with their scare tactics and fearmongering. The glaciers could take over the earth and these people will still not admit that they were wrong.
With elation, have a cool day….
