Al Gore’s claim of “man-made global warming” caught in another lie

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/copenhagen/article6956783.ece

Mr Gore, speaking at the Copenhagen climate change summit, stated the latest research showed that the Arctic could be completely ice-free in five years.

In his speech, Mr Gore told the conference: “These figures are fresh. Some of the models suggest to Dr [Wieslav] Maslowski that there is a 75 per cent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during the summer months, could be completely ice-free within five to seven years."

However, the climatologist whose work Mr Gore was relying upon dropped the former Vice-President in the water with an icy blast.

“It’s unclear to me how this figure was arrived at,” Dr Maslowski said. “I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this.”

"Global warming" researchers' exposed emails seem to indicate deception and collusion were part of the methodology

The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet. (Hat tip: Watts Up With That)

Manipulation of evidence:

Private doubts about whether the world really is heating up:

The fact is that we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can’t. The CERES data published in the August BAMS 09 supplement on 2008 shows there should be even more warming: but the data are surely wrong. Our observing system is inadequate.

Suppression of evidence:

Can you delete any emails you may have had with Keith re AR4?

Keith will do likewise. He’s not in at the moment – minor family crisis.

Can you also email Gene and get him to do the same? I don’t have his new email address.

We will be getting Caspar to do likewise.

including one with a mysterious reference to a plan to "hide the decline," ..... in temperatures.

And here.

In one email, dated November 1999, one scientist wrote: "I've just completed Mike's Nature [the science journal] trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie, from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 for Keith's to hide the decline."

Carbon dioxide deficiency

Many special interests tell us that mankind is the primary cause of global warming. What role then does solar activity, the earth's molten core, ocean surface temperatures, or active volcanoes play in the earth's climate? To hear the special interests tell it, these natural processes have no effect or are of little consideration.

There is also an inordinate amount of time spent by these cap and trade special interests (many of whom sell "environmental credits") talking about carbon dioxide as a pollutant......maybe I'm old school, but my grade school science teachers taught us that grass, plants, trees, forests etc. require CO2 and in the chemical process convert it into oxygen......has that changed? Do plants, trees, and foliage no longer consume CO2 since the "new" science is being taught in schools?

Far from it, in reality the atmospheric concentration of CO2 on earth is 385 parts per million (ppm), but the ideal concentration for plant growth is in excess of 1200 parts per million (ppm).

So it would seem that CO2 emissions from coal plants or any other fossil fuel process is not the leading cause of global warming that the "new revisionist scientists" would have us believe. In fact it actually appears that plants, trees, and foliage on planet earth actually suffer from a deficiency of CO2.

According to Wikipedia the concentration of CO2 in the earth's atmosphere 500 million years ago was 20 times higher than it is today (385 ppm x 20 = 7700 ppm). No explanation whether it was due to dinosaurs use of coal fired factories, or non-ethanol petroleum fuel used in their combustion engine vehicles. Apparently though some dinosaur was smart enough to pass legislation 500 million years ago to limit the output of CO2 and save the world.

Perhaps activists should revise their current rhetoric before they completely embarrass themselves and finally destroy the "credibility" of the global warming alarmists (carbon credit sales industry) once and for all.

Update: As Washington DC politicians get ready to pass "Cap & Trade" now renamed "Pollution Reduction and Investment", Stephen Moore of the Heritage Foundation suggests we refer to the proposed boondoggle by its proper title "the China and India Full Employment Act". Since the net result of this flawed legislation would be to eliminate energy production and manufacturing businesses & jobs here in the U.S. relocating them to countries like China & India which wisely have no intention of crippling their economies with similar foolhardy and unnecessary legislation.

Here's an inconvenient question for carbon credit sales charlatans global warming activists: CO2 level is same day & night, right? Why is our temperature cooler at night after sun goes down, warmer during day? Because global warming is caused by the sun.....not CO2.
