It has become commonplace knowledge, and is unchallenged, that global average temperature has not increased since 1998. This corresponds to a 9-year period during which the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide, in contrast, did increase, and that by almost 5%.

Let everyone, especially students, hear the whole climate story

Canada Free Press, May 9, 2008

By Tom Harris, ICSC Executive Director 

Mike De Souza’s piece, “Climate-change skeptics target kids”, published in various versions in mainstream newspapers across Canada, is a classic example of how the climate debate has mostly been reduced to a war of emotive, and politically loaded, words.

Re: Canadian schools sent brochures, DVDs from climate change skeptics, May 4.

Sierra Club spokeswoman Emilie Moorhouse maintains that the scientific debate about the causes of climate change is merely "an illusion" and so implies that school children should not be told about it. She is wrong on both counts.

"... there is no observational evidence in measured data going back 22,000 years or even millions of years that CO2 levels (whether from man or nature) have driven or are driving world temperatures or climate change.

If you believe there is evidence of the CO2 driver theory in the available data please present a graph of it."

UN climate body in panic mode as satellite temperatures turn down and a hard winter lashes both hemispheres.

"I fear that the sloppy science that too many climate researchers have lapsed into could, in the end, hurt our scientific discipline beyond repair. The very high level of certainty (90%) claimed by the IPCC for their manmade explanation for warming can not be justified based upon the scientific evidence, and is little more than an expression of their faith that they understand the causes of climate variability – which they clearly don’t." - Dr Roy Spencer, former NASA climatologist

Dear Mr. Secretary-General,

Re: UN climate conference taking the World in entirely the wrong direction

It is not possible to stop climate change, a natural phenomenon that has affected humanity through the ages. Geological, archaeological, oral and written histories all attest to the dramatic challenges posed to past societies from unanticipated changes in temperature, precipitation, winds and other climatic variables. We therefore need to equip nations to become resilient to the full range of these natural phenomena by promoting economic growth and wealth generation.

Climate scientists at the University of Rochester, the University of Alabama, and the University of Virginia report that observed patterns of temperature changes ('fingerprints') over the last thirty years are not in accord with what greenhouse models predict and can better be explained by natural factors, such as solar variability. Therefore, climate change is 'unstoppable' and cannot be affected or modified by controlling the emission of greenhouse gases, such as CO2, as is proposed in current legislation.
