Global Warming: Here We Go Again!

from the February 20, 2001 eNews issue


The latest round of dire predictions about global warming has hit the news media.  The UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) had warned that temperatures are rising faster than previously thought, resulting in increases in famine, flooding, disease, and possibly the extinction of some species.

In spite of these extreme predictions, not all scientists are panicked.  There are three issues concerning global warming which have yet to be settled within the scientific community:

  1. Is global warming really happening or is the data contaminated by faulty collection techniques (taking readings from so called heat islands around cities and from ocean water rather than from the air)?  What is the base year used to predict a warming trend?  Using a cold period as the base would show warming, while using a warm year would show cooling.  Satellite data does not support warming statistics. 
  2. If there is global warming, is it caused by the activities of man, i.e. burning of fossil fuels, etc.? Does the historical record show wide swings in climate before the industrial age? Some scientists have gone on record to say that sunspot activity has a much greater effect than does human activity.  Also, the greenhouse gas most responsible for warming is water and not carbon dioxide, and there is little that can be done about that.
  3. Finally, if global warming is true, will the effects of such a trend be as catastrophic as the computer models predict?  Keep in mind that computer models have failed to account for the effects of clouds and forests in moderating temperatures.

Over 16,000 atmospheric scientists signed the Leipzig Agreement refuting the conclusions of the global warming scare.  There is no consensus among scientists despite claims to the contrary.

See the recent article on global warming in the February issue of  “Personal Update” newsletter.
