In his book Spencer contends that short - term fluctuations in the energy balance and surface temperature are consistent with a low climate sensitivity: «A careful examination of the satellite data suggests that
manmade warming due to a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide could be less than 1ºC — possibly much less.»
