Today’s
UK Telegraph reports:
“Global warming will stop until at least 2015 because of natural
variations in the climate, scientists have said. Researchers studying
long-term changes in sea temperatures said they now expect a "lull" for
up to a decade while natural variations in climate cancel out the
increases caused by man-made greenhouse gas emissions. The average
temperature of the sea around Europe and North America is expected to
cool slightly over the decade while the tropical Pacific remains
unchanged. This would mean that the 0.3°C global average temperature
rise which has been predicted for the next decade by the UN's
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change may not happen, according to
the paper published in the scientific journal Nature.”
This significant new study adds
to a growing body of peer-reviewed literature and other scientific
analysis challenging former Vice President Al Gore and the United
Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change (IPCC). MIT Climate
Scientist Dr. Richard Lindzen’s March 2008 analysis found the Earth has
had “no statistically significant warming since 1995.”-
LINK.
Australian paleoclimate
scientist Dr. Bob Carter also noted in 2007 that “ the accepted global
average temperature statistics used by the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change show that no ground-based warming has occurred since
1998.” Carter explained that the “temperature stasis has occurred
despite an increase over the same period of 15 parts per million (or 4
per cent) in atmospheric CO2.” (LINK)
In August 2007, the UK Met
Office, Britain's version of our National Weather Service, conceded that
global warming had stopped as well. Both the Nature and UK Met Office
analysis predict a continuation of global warming in future years.
[Note: Hyping yet more unproven computer models of the future in
response to inconvenient evidence based data is the primary tool of the
promoters of man-made climate doom.]
Today’s new study in Nature
essentially finds that global warming will have stopped for nearly 20
years. (1998 until 2015) According to the UK Telegraph article: “Writing
in Nature, the scientists said: ‘Our results suggest that global surface
temperature may not increase over the next decade, as natural climate
variations in the North Atlantic and tropical Pacific temporarily offset
the projected anthropogenic [manmade] warming.’”
The UK Telegraph article by
reporter Charles Clover noted the significant deficiencies in UN climate
models: “The IPCC currently does not include in its models actual
records of such events as the strength of the Gulf Stream and the El
Nino cyclical warming event in the Pacific, which are known to have been
behind the warmest year ever recorded in 1998.”
The evidence based data showing
the Earth’s
failure to continue warming
has confounded the promoters of man-made climate fear. The American
people have consistently rejected climate alarm as a
Gallup Poll released on
Earth Day 2008
shows the American public’s concern about man-made global warming is
unchanged from 1989. Gore's $300 million dollar campaign to promote
climate fear is attempting to convince American's that they face a
climate "crisis" despite the new accumulating scientific evidence.
This new study in Nature
further reveals a “tipping point” for the promoters of climate alarm.
2007
and now 2008 have challenged man-made climate fear as
new peer-reviewed studies
continue to debunk rising CO2 fears. A U.S. Senate minority report
reveals over
400 scientists dissented
from man-made climate fears,
and
more and more scientists
continue to declare themselves skeptical of a man-made climate “crisis”
in 2008.
