What Scientists Really Say About Global Warming
Here’s what scientists say:
- 2007: 101 key scientists contradict the IPCC Report.
- 2008: 650 scientists, over 12 times the 52 signers, dissent at the UN meeting.
- 2008: Japan Geoscience Union symposium survey showed 90% of participants do not believe the IPCC report.
- 2009: 700 key scientists sign the Senate report (Inhofe) debunking man-made global warming claims.
- 2009: International Conference on Climate Change: All 700 scientists agree that CO2 does not cause global warming.
Here is a summary of #1 above:
- The IPCC Summary Reports do not represent the input, views or consensus of scientists.
- Claims of global warming are not evidence that the global warming hypothesis is correct. Changes in glaciers, sea-level, species, etc., are not evidence of abnormal climate change.
- The climate models are invalid. They cannot predict climate and even the IPCC reps agree.
- The global warming hypothesis has been falsified by significant peer-reviewed research.
- There is no basis to cut CO2 emissions. It is not shown that CO2 alters climate and it is not possible to stop climate change
- Cutting CO2 is bad economics, is a tragic misallocation of our resources, will decrease our ability to adapt and will increase human suffering.
- We must produce energy and not limit CO2 emissions. We need energy to adapt to natural climate change. The “precautionary principal” (the idea of spending money to solve a problem that you are not sure exists) is irrational.
This is very strong support from the atmospheric science community for the position that the global warming hypothesis is dead.
