Proved: There is no climate crisis

Major paper shows CO2's effect on temperature was overstated 500-2000%

Washington, D.C. 7/15/2008 03:33 PM GMT (TransWorldNews)


WASHINGTON (7-15-08) - Mathematical proof that there is no "climate crisis"
appears today in a major, peer-reviewed paper in Physics and Society, a
learned journal of the 10,000-strong American Physical Society, SPPI
reports.

Christopher Monckton, who once advised Margaret Thatcher, demonstrates via
30 equations that computer models used by the UN's climate panel (IPCC) were
pre-programmed with overstated values for the three variables whose product
is "climate sensitivity" (temperature increase in response to greenhouse-gas
increase), resulting in a 500-2000% overstatement of CO2's effect on
temperature in the IPCC's latest climate assessment report, published in
2007.


Climate Sensitivity Reconsidered demonstrates that later this century a
doubling of the concentration of CO2 compared with pre-industrial levels
will increase global mean surface temperature not by the 6 °F predicted by
the IPCC but, harmlessly, by little more than 1 °F. Lord Monckton
concludes -


". Perhaps real-world climate sensitivity is very much below the IPCC's
estimates. Perhaps, therefore, there is no 'climate crisis' at all. . The
correct policy approach to a non-problem is to have the courage to do
nothing."


Larry Gould, Professor of Physics at the University of Hartford and Chair
(2004) of the New England Section of the American Physical Society (APS),
has been studying climate-change science for four years.  He said:


"I was impressed by an hour-long academic lecture which criticized claims
about 'global warming' and explained the implications of the physics of
radiative transfer for climate change.  I was pleased that the audience
responded to the informative presentation with a prolonged, standing
ovation. That is what happened when, at the invitation of the President of
our University, Christopher Monckton lectured here in Hartford this spring.
I am delighted that Physics and Society, an APS journal, has published his
detailed paper refining and reporting his important and revealing results.


"To me the value of this paper lies in its dispassionate but ruthlessly
clear exposition - or, rather, exposé - of the IPCC's method of evaluating
climate sensitivity.  The detailed arguments in this paper, and, indeed, in
a large number of other scientific papers, point up extensive errors,
including numerous projection errors of climate models, as well as
misleading statements by the IPCC.  Consequently, there are no rational
grounds for believing either the IPCC or any other claims of dangerous
anthropogenic 'global warming'."


Lord Monckton's paper reveals that -

The IPCC's 2007 climate summary overstated CO2's impact on temperature by
500-2000%;

CO2 enrichment will add little more than 1 °F (0.6 °C) to global mean
surface temperature by 2100;

Not one of the three key variables whose product is climate sensitivity can
be measured directly;

The IPCC's values for these key variables are taken from only four published
papers, not 2,500;

The IPCC's values for each of the three variables, and hence for climate
sensitivity, are overstated;

"Global warming" halted ten years ago, and surface temperature has been
falling for seven years;

Not one of the computer models relied upon by the IPCC predicted so long and
rapid a cooling;

The IPCC inserted a table into the scientists' draft, overstating the effect
of ice-melt by 1000%;

It was proved 50 years ago that predicting climate more than two weeks ahead
is impossible;

Mars, Jupiter, Neptune's largest moon, and Pluto warmed at the same time as
Earth warmed;

In the past 70 years the Sun was more active than at almost any other time
in the past 11,400 years.
