the truth is Lorax we do not have global warming,we have local weather events all over the planet but I bet you cannot back up your claim of global warming. Therein lies the modellers problem of course ,they will never be able to link all local weather events and their results are not predictive as you claim but merely possibilities. NONE of the models used and mostly discarded have ever agreed. Just one little point,ice cover has been coming and going for years ,I have already pointed out that the Nrth West passage has been free of ice several times before in recent history. The models used and data points selected are far too limited to make much sense,however we have good geological records going back millions of years---
If that is too much work then check out the radiosonde records which started in the late 30's,around 800 stations .
I know people have lost income as a result of the change in attitude in Australia but the current model is unsustainable . A few more thoughts..
DID YOU KNOW?
Just 8,000 years ago, there was virtually no summer sea-ice in the Arctic Ocean. Sea-level rise is natural, and declining in rate. Australian rainfall has not decreased over the last 100 years. A previous Australian drought lasted 69 years.
By catchment management, the Murray-Darling Basin now contains almost 3 times as much water as it held naturally.
Global air temperature has not increased for the last 16 years, despite an 8% increase in CO2.
Global ocean temperature is also steady or cooling slightly. Australian territory absorbs up to 20 times the amount of CO2 that we emit.
The CO2 tax will cost about $1,000/person/year; and rising. The result of reducing Australian CO2 emissions by 5% by 2020 will be a theoretical (and unmeasurable) cooling of between 0.0007CO and 0.00007O C by 2100. No scientist can tell you whether the world will be warmer or cooler than today in 2020.
Taxing Air is an outstanding contribution to the growing literature that examines and calls to account the climate alarmism of the past two decades. ... it provides an accurate, easily understood explanation of the many scientific and technical issues that comprise today's climate science.
Equally important, it examines the history and exposes the duplicity of some of the individuals and organisations who have vested interests in creating and maintaining horrific visions of an imagined global warming future. The book would make a splendid gift to certain members of the climate science establishment.'
