Your colleague Thomas Friedman is one of the most respected and influential people in the world, and he has for years expressed great concern about the global warming problem.

I had attempted a similar project at the 3rd conference with my poster «Comparison of Climate Forecasts: Expert Opinions vs. Prediction Markets» in which my abstract proposed the following: «As an experiment, we will ask participants to go on the record with estimates of probability that the global temperature anomaly for calendar year 2012 will be equal to or greater than x, where x ranges in increments of 0.05 °C from 0.30 to 1.10 °C (relative to the 1951 - 1980 base period, and published by NASA GISS).»

From the article:... You might think this would be great news for all those scientists who have been warning us over the last few years about the impending horrors of «man - made global warming» but in fact they are not happy about it, not one bit.

«[The subjects raised] made for a decent scientific debate 15 years ago, but the questions have since been settled... The Great Global Warming Swindle raised old debates that are going to be latched on to and used to suggest that we don't need to do anything about climate change.

For example, instead of having to show a 95 % probability that «global mean temperature had been stable for thousands of years», he would only need to show a probability of greater than 5For example, instead of having to show a 95 % probability that «global mean temperature had been stable for thousands of years», he would only need to show a probability of greater than 5for thousands of years», he would only need to show a probability of greater than 5 %.

Investigative journalist Dane Wigington of has been researching this phenomenon in great depth for many years and is the author of GeonengineeringWatch.org, an ongoing global investigation into climate engineering.

The warming rate over the 40 years 1694 - 1733, demonstrated by the Central England Temperature Record, a reasonable proxy for global temperature anomalies, was considerably greater than in any subsequent 40 - year period.

These facts were enough for an NAS panel, including Christy, to publish a report Reconciling Observations of Global Temperature Change which concluded that «Despite differences in temperature data, strong evidence exists to show that the warming of the Earth's surface is undoubtedly real, and surface temperatures in the past two decades have risen at a rate substantially greater than average for the past 100 years»

Abrupt and severe temperature shifts have occurred on occasion in the past, typically separated by hundreds of years or more, but shifts of this magnitude that are global in extent have almost always occurred during glacial eras, when the extent of snow and ice allowed for great changes in feedback in response to only modest signals.

The Canadian climatologist, who has a Ph.D. in climatology from the University of London and taught at the University of Winnipeg for 28 years says that the widely propagated «fact» that humans are contributing to global warming is the «greatest deception in the history of science.»

As the recent global warming rate is identical to the pervious one, if human emission of CO2 had any effect on global temperature, the global warming rate for the period from 1970 to 2000, after 60 years of human emission of CO2, would have been greater than that for the period from 1910 to 1940.

One reason for this is that «global temperature» varies significantly over the months of the year due to seasonally varying Earth / sun geometry and the greater land mass in the Northern Hemisphere, so that any global average of absolute temperature, not anomalies, will be considerably higher in NH summer than SH summer, and this will be true even in an unchanging climate.

«A peer - reviewed paper [Krivova et al.] published in the Journal of Geophysical Research finds that reconstructions of total solar irradiance (TSI) show a significant increase since the Maunder minimum in the 1600's during the Little Ice Age and shows further increases over the 19th and 20th centuries... Use of the Stefan - Boltzmann equation indicates that a 1.25 W / m2 increase in solar activity could account for an approximate.44 C global temperature increase... A significant new finding is that portions of the more energetic ultraviolet region of the solar spectrum increased by almost 50 % over the 400 years since the Maunder minimum... This is highly significant because the UV portion of the solar spectrum is the most important for heating of the oceans due to the greatest penetration beyond the surface and highest energy levels.

The global picture remains as I depicted it: there are enough fossil fuels to last us for 200 - 300 years at current usage rate and when they are all 100 % gone some day in the far distant future when you and I and our great grandchildren are all long gone, the maximum ever CO2 level will be around 1,000 ppmv.

The new analysis reveals that global trends in recent decades are higher than reported in the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report, and the central estimate for the rate of warming during the first 15 years of the 21st century is at least as great as the last half of the 20th century.

Simply stated, the differential impact from the gargantuan, modern CO2 emissions on global 5 - year average warming should be significantly greater than pre-modern, natural warming for 5 - year averages.

I say my conclusion was «not unreasonable» because Dr. Scafetta, in a posting at WattsUpWithThat today, has also concluded that, once the natural 60 - year cycles of the great ocean oscillations are accounted for (and it may be these cycles that express themselves in changes in cloud cover such as that which Dr. Pinker had identified), the anthropogenic component in global warming is considerably less than the IPCC imagines.

Global warming is the greatest hoax of the modern era and is seriously undermined by the fact that the Earth has been in one of its natural cooling cycles for the last seventeen years at this point.

Of the many pseudoscientific institutions responsible for pushing the pseudoscientific fraud of Man Made Global Warming in recent years, few have been quite so assiduous in promulgating the great lie as our own Royal Society.
