Rise of sea levels is 'the greatest lie ever told'
The uncompromising verdict of Dr Mörner is that all this talk about the
sea rising is nothing but a colossal scare story, writes Christopher

Despite the hot air, the Antarctic is not warming up
A deeply flawed new report will be cited ad nauseam by everyone from the

""... And now my old boss
when I was at NASA (as well as James Hansen’s old boss), John Theon, has
stated very clearly that he doesn’t believe global warming is
manmade…and adding “climate models are useless” for good measure. Even I
wouldn’t go quite that far, since I use simple ones in my
published research." Apart from the

Solar activity 'not behind climate change'
3 April 2008
The research,
carried out by physicists at Lancaster University, undermines claims by
climate sceptics that cosmic rays are key drivers in cloudiness and
temperature. The theory claims that variation in solar activity leads to
a corresponding variance in cosmic rays.

NYC Climate Conference Further Debunks ‘Consensus’ Claims
Climate Skeptics Reveal
‘Horror Stories’ of Scientific Suppression
Written by George Landrith - Tuesday, 11 March 2008
Scientists skeptical of man-made climate fears meeting at the 2008
International Conference on Climate Change in New York City described
the “absolute horror stories” about how some scientific journals have
engaged in “outrageous and unethical behavior” in attempting to suppress
them from publishing their work in peer-reviewed journals. The March 2-4
groundbreaking conference, which featured about 100 speakers with over
500 people attending, presented the report of a team of international
scientists who formed a group to counter the UN IPCC.
The event, which garnered significant international and U.S. media
attention, featured many current and former UN IPCC scientists from
around the world. The international climate conference built on the
momentum of growing number of skeptics as the conference showcased a new
report by a team of international scientists who formed a group to
counter the UN IPCC called the “Nongovernmental International Panel of
Climate Change” (NIPCC). The skeptical scientist report was titled
“Nature, Not Human Activity, Rules the Climate.”
Key findings of the
NIPCC’s climate findings:
(1) Most of climate change is caused by natural forces.
(2) The human contribution is not significant.
(3) Solar-activity changes are the main cause of climate change.
Climate Scientist Dr. S. Fred Singer, former director the US Weather
Satellite Service and past vice chairman of the U.S. National Advisory
Committee on Oceans and Atmosphere, told the conference that the IPCC
“chose to ignore these facts, because they conflicted with the
conclusion that global warming is anthropogenic (man-made).

Nature, Not Human Activity, Rules the Climate
“Global warming has stopped,” said
David
Whitehouse, former science editor for the BBC. “It’s not a viewpoint or
a skeptic’s inaccuracy. It’s an observational fact.” But the
observational fact matters little to global warming alarmists,
particularly those in the media.

Over 400 Prominent Scientists Disputed Man-Made Global
Warming in 2007
Written by Senate Environment and Public Works Committee [USA]
Friday, 21 December 2007Over 400 prominent scientists from
more than two dozen countries recently voiced significant
objections to major aspects of the so-called "consensus" on
man-made global warming. These scientists, many of whom are
current and former participants in the UN IPCC
(Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), criticized the
climate claims made by the UN IPCC and former Vice President Al
Gore.
Finland: Dr. Boris Winterhalter, retired Senior Marine
Researcher of the Geological Survey of Finland and former
professor of marine geology at University of Helsinki,
criticized the media for what he considered its alarming climate
coverage. “The effect of solar winds on cosmic radiation has
just recently been established and, furthermore, there seems to
be a good correlation between cloudiness and variations in the
intensity of cosmic radiation. Here we have a mechanism which is
a far better explanation to variations in global climate than
the attempts by IPCC to blame it all on anthropogenic input of
greenhouse gases. “
Britain: Dr. Richard Courtney, a UN IPCC expert reviewer
and a UK-based climate and atmospheric science consultant: “To
date, no convincing evidence for AGW (anthropogenic global
warming) has been discovered. And recent global climate behavior
is not consistent with AGW model predictions.”
