It's actually a good article, the basic gist of which I agree with. Last year, the Hadley Centre released a prediction from their own model saying that GW may stall for few years before picking up again. Neither Latif's model, not the Hadley Centre's model says that GW is at an end because of graphs that start at the peak of the largest El Nino of modern times in 1998. If this is correct then we have quite a few years before 'catastrophic' global warming occurs. We have a whole new generation of young children being brainwashed in schools to believe that man made global warming is a 'fact'. These children will become adults and will accept that man must not pollute the planet and try to reduce CO2 emissions. In itself a good thing. Up until then it's about time that the current generation of adults realise that vested interests are running the agenda. People like Gore are making millions out of 'global warming'. Politicians should start to think about the policies they sign up to. These children will grow up into a world that has been destroyed not by global warming but by ill thought out ideas by 'do-gooders' , greens and greedy politicians. And the anti-warming lobby definitely do *not* have ill thought ideas by greedy right wing politicians and vested corporate interests. :-) Nick |

As this seems to be the current Gorebull Warming thread I may as well point
this out here. On this mornings BBC news there was an article about a sighting of a Crested Puffin from the north pacific region. It is though to be the first recorded sighting of this bird in the UK ever recorded. How nice, especially if you are a twitcher. But that wasn't their reason for broadcasting the piece. The presenters then went on to say that these birds (suddenly there is a flock of them) are here because of climate change. Yes I know that they are idiots, but these little green lies get threaded into the fabric of reality. The poor viewer is, on average, not informed enough to question this blatant nonsense. It just all adds a bit more momentum to the stean rolling gravy train of the Global warming Industry. I wish I was a creationist, then I could at least ask God to save us from the imbeciles. Paul |

By the way would you include parasitic Saudi Arabia in those evil oil people terms because in my book they are far more culpable then the western oil companies ever were Of course. -- Jim The reason I Saudi that Jim was this: at least in the 'west' the money goes back into the economy as the oil companies are just that companies. In Saudi Arabia however all that oil belongs to a few families who make sure they keep it and the vast unimaginable fortunes that go with it. They have inherited through no ingenuity of their own vast trillions of dollars that the rest of us have to risk massive research and investment to get that stuff out of the ground. |

I notice that several contributors have refered to "vested interests" (who
have reasons for wanting us to believe in GW and/or AGW. Now I know these people are part of a jewish inspired capitalist-imperialist plot to beggar African nations - but how and why? Surely any course of action that cuts down waste of any kind is a good thing; more efficient sources of power have been on the engineering agenda for centuries. David Attenborough's remark that the world's population has trebled since he started making wildlife documentaries should surely be enough reason for grave concern and unpopular action before it's too late. -- Rodney Blackall (retired meteorologist)(BSc, FRMetS) Buckingham, ENGLAND Using Acorn SA-RPC, OS 4.02 with ANT INS and Pluto 3.03j |

Overpopulation is the problem we need to change not Gorebull Warming or Climate Change as they prefer to call it now. Paul |

Just to drag this thread back on topic. *)) Here's the very recent paper from Hadley Centre scientists, much discussed on the blogosphere already, It is relevant to Monibot's good article and backs the AGW side's arguments again. It is always worth reading the original paper, rather than just the discussion forum comments. The paper concludes that: "These results show that climate models possess internal mechanisms of variability capable of reproducing the current slowdown in global temperature rise. Other factors, such as data biases and the effect of the solar cycle (Haigh 2003), may also have contributed, although these results show that it is not essential to invoke these explanations. The simulations also produce an average increase of 2.0°C in twenty-first century global temperature, demonstrating that recent observational trends are not sufficient to discount predictions of substantial climate change and its significant and widespread impacts. Given the likelihood that internal variability contributed to the slowing of global temperature rise in the last decade, we expect that warming will resume in the next few years, consistent with predictions from near-term climate forecasts (Smith et al. 2007; Haines et al. 2009)." http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/corporat...ratures_09.pdf Of course, we'll have to wait to see if it is true, but the paper does reflect the mainstream and the vast majority, of current climate science thinking about likelihoods for the future. |
