Is that the IPCC has a bunch of arguments which are irrelevant. Read more about Fred Singer here.

Warming Not Unusual

The 20th century warming is not unusual, Says Dr. Sallie Baliunas and Dr. Willie Soon from the harvard.

They have conducted a resarch that once and for all confirms that the climate globally have had swings up and down for the last 10.000 years. Of special interest is the claim that the MWP from year 900 to 1300 was warmer than today….

Sallie Baliunas has along with her colleagues, Harvard astrophysicists Dr. Willie Soon and Dr. David Legates, in strong terms criticised the validity of the “hockey stick” by Michael Mann. The hockey stick were for many years the icon of manmade global warming. The pilar that the arguments were standing on. Michael Mann argued that the warming in the last 100 years were unpresidented and it was 98% likely that humans were to blame. His temperature grapfh completely deleted the Medieval Warm period and the Little Ice Age. But Baliunas and Soon and his colleagues refuted these claims in a now famous article from 2003:

RECONSTRUCTING CLIMATIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES OF THE PAST 1000 YEARS: A REAPPRAISAL

Part of the conclusion goes like this:

“After examining more than 240 individual proxy records analyzed by nearly 1000 researchers, we concluded that taken individually, proxy records offer strong support for the widespread existence of both a Medieval Warm Period (~A.D. 800 to 1300) and a Little Ice Age (~A.D. 1400 to 1850), undermining Mann’s conclusion that the climate of the 20th Century was unusual when compared to the variability over the last millennium. (Proxy records are secondary or inferred sources from which assumptions about air temperature may be drawn).” Find the full .pdf article here.

The greenhouse and CO2 is not straight on a simple matter. “It´s more complicated than the IPCC proclaims” argues Dr. Sallie Baliunas.

Fred Singer, professor Emeritus af environmental science at the University of Virginia. Former lead author of IPCC.

S. Fred Singer is the editor of Summary for Policymakers of the Report of the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change. The report concludes that Nature, Not Human Activity, Rules the Climate.

The report is a must read for all climate realists who do not by the so called “consensus view” You can find it here.

Henrik Svensmark

Professor Henrik Svensmark is the head of the Centre for Sun-Climate Research, at DTU Space, Technical University of Denmark.

Since 1997, Svensmark spearheaded the idea that solar activity variations affect climate on Earth, through solar activity modulating of the cosmic rays reaching the Earth and the effect that these particles have on cloud cover. This idea received a significant boost with the SKY experiment that he headed, which showed under laboratory conditions how the ionization caused by cosmic rays gives rise to the formation of condensation nuclei, a necessary step in the formation of clouds.

This idea is the main theme covered in the documentary The Cloud Mystery (this link includes more information about Svensmarks theory about Cosmoclimatology as well as links to other scientists involved in the research findings. The Cloud Mystery Dvd can be ordered online as well)

Here is a brief and simple overview of Cosmoclimatology.
