Bad News For The Global Warming Fanatics: Study Shows Carbon Dioxide’s Effect On The Earth’s Temperature “Overestimated”…

The scam of the century continues to fall apart.

(BBC) — Global temperatures could be less sensitive to changing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels than previously thought, a study suggests.

The researchers said people should still expect to see “drastic changes” in climate worldwide, but that the risk was a little less imminent.

The results are published in Science.

Previous climate models have used meteorological measurements from the past 150 years to estimate the climate’s sensitivity to rising CO2.

From these models, scientists find it difficult to narrow their projections down to a single figure with any certainty, and instead project a range of temperatures that they expect, given a doubling of atmospheric CO2 from pre-industrial levels.

The new analysis, which incorporates palaeoclimate data into existing models, attempts to project future temperatures with a little more certainty.

    “..Global temperatures could be less sensitive to changing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels than previously thought…”
    =================================

    and exactly what we have been saying for the last several years…

    After three exceptionally cold winters in the Northern hemisphere…

    the Warmists are chanting: “Warming causes cold”.

    Even if we give that a pass for logic, it still inspires the question:

    “Well, what are we worried about”? Cold is not going to melt the icecaps is it?”

    150 years on the face of it was insufficient time frame.

    It’s a akin to using a 30 minute time frame in the morning and by noon screaming GLOBAL WARMING.

    One day someone will leak a copy of the software and data they’re using to perpetuate this scam. And then, the jig will be up.

    This BBC article is the beginning of a media campaign leading up to the December 12-15 IPCC author’s meeting in San Francisco.

    “It’s the sun stupid!”

    Not sure where I last heard this but it should go a long way in explaining warming since Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are also warming.

    This whole climate crisis is a manufactured money and power grab by those who want ultimate control of the masses.

    That’s my shout for the day, y’awl ‘ave a good one!

    It fell apart years ago for me, but that won’t stop the promoters from pushing it. When there is no more money in the fraud, then it will stop,,,,maybe.

    ‘Global warming’ has become the grand political narrative of the age, replacing Marxism as a dominant force for controlling liberty and human choices.

    @deez

    so true…

    as we know… money can’t change evolution…

    but the leftists still haven’t figured that out yet

    and won’t stop them from trying to fleece the uninformed

    All these studies are nonsense to me, just a waste of money. We can’t even predict the weather longer than a week with any significant accuracy. Carbon dioxide although vilified by the environmentalists is actually the source of all plant and animal food and the oxygen we breathe. We should be protecting and increasing this trace gas instead of insanely trying to reduce it.

    The global climate change/AGW hoax comes crumbling down big time.

    Yes, it sure is refreshing to have the truth come out, and truly clear the air and dispell all the rank lies perpetrated in the evil global One World Order redistribution scam/scheme which desires to make slaves of all nations to the evil order, and dictates from the useless nations, Soros open society, and the Clinton Global Initiative as well as, the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) Carbon Credit stealing/redistribution bureau.

    Climategate 2.0: New E-Mails Rock The Global Warming Debate

    A new batch of 5,000 emails among scientists central to the assertion that humans are causing a global warming crisis were anonymously released to the public yesterday, igniting a new firestorm of controversy nearly two years to the day after similar emails ignited the Climategate scandal.

    Three themes are emerging from the newly released emails:

    (1) prominent scientists central to the global warming debate are taking measures to conceal rather than disseminate underlying data and discussions;

    (2) these scientists view global warming as a political “cause” rather than a balanced scientific inquiry and

    (3) many of these scientists frankly admit to each other that much of the science is weak and dependent on deliberate manipulation of facts and data.

    Atmosphere=
    78% nitrogen
    1% all other inert gassess combined.

    Now, if a substance as common and cheap as CO2 were really such a superinsulator that it can warm an entire planet at less than 400 parts per MILLION in the atmosphere, why have we not been finding a way to encapsulate it and insulate our homes and buildings with it?

    The answer is simple: its not. CO2 is simply the left’s boogeyman in the ongoing global warming hoax, the biggest scam in human history.

    THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “HEAT TRAPPING GAS”

    A gas can become warmer by contact with something warmer

    or by infrared radiation shining on it… or by pressure effects…

    but it cannot trap anything…. air is a gas….

    try trapping something with it!

    Since time began, there have been climate changes. Just look at our own documentaries that show that the Sahara was once a humid jungle area. There are many such examples. Only anyone with the tiniest of brains would be the only ones over looking facts.

    The atmosphere of Mars is 95% CO2. The temperature on Mars causes the CO2 to freeze solid and rain down.

    Rob beat me to it. Delingpole has more on it. But his last one nails them perfectly.

    http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/jamesdelingpole/100119271/climategate-2-0-the-warmists-seven-stages-of-grief/

    Climategate 2.0 – the gift that goes on giving. And you know how good it is from the reaction of the trolls. They’re going mental. On the one hand they’d like to insist it’s a non-story. On the other hand, the more shrilly they shriek it’s a non-story the more evident it becomes just what a great story it is.

    Here’s an amusing analysis of the warmist trolls’ various lines of defense, which I picked up from the comments at Watts Up With That: (H/T Alix James – and a big thanks to all those of you who helped me find him)

    Stage 1: they aren’t real emails
    Stage 2: they are real emails but they aren’t in context
    Stage 3: they are in context, but that’s how scientists work
    Stage 4: ok, this isn’t really science, but you guys stole the emails!
    Stage 5: this is old stuff
    Stage 6: this is nothing
    Stage 7: look everyone! Winter storm! See, we have proof of our theories now.

    Repeat as needed
