| Global warming continues not to happen |
| 2006-05-18 |
| The warming trend from the 1970s through to the late 1990s has stopped and if anything the trend is now slight cooling, despite the record levels of CO2 in the atmosphere. This supports the theory that the warming we did see resulted from reductions in atmospheric aerosols as air pollution was reduced. |

| #12 mhw, it is a fact that climate warming has stopped over the last 5 to 8 years. I defy you to show me one global warming proponent who even attempts to explain this fact. You won't won't find one because they kbown the 'truth' and don't need no pesky facts. |

| #11 Vader, I would say there are virgins and there are virgins. I'm reffering to the difficult and often unappealing spinster variety. I'd particularly like to imagine that Al Queda is getting 42 spinsters to deal with when they die, facing eternity of cold shoulders combined with nags and being beaten over the head by a Koran. |

| #10 The tiny warming period in which mankind has arisen is occurring within an ice age. Splitting hairs about wobbles over a century or three is laughable. Perspective. Maurice Strong & Friends are the most successful scam artists in the history of this little tiny time bubble. |

| #9 I don't think you can honestly say global warming has stopped because that implies you know the future. It's more prudent to say there has been a pause or leveling off in the warming. As for Kyoto - the original report did not estimate the climatic effect of implementing the accords partly because the effect is embarrassingly small, partly because some people believed there would be a Kyoto II which would impose a limit on the developing world (e.g. India, China) which wasn't done in Kyoto I. |

| #8 I challenge anybody reading to find where the UN states in their Kyoto Protocol mutterings by HOW MUCH kyoto will slow down global warming. WHAT EFFECT WILL THE KYOTO PROTOCOL IF SIGNED BY ALL PARTIES HAVE ON GLOBAL WARMING? That is the assignment. A pretend $100 for whoever can answer. Because they never answer they just blather about how much global warming is gonna devastate the planet. |

| #5 Yeah Deacon, I'm still trying to find all those cars and smoke stack industries our ancestors had back in the Middle East and Egypt that melted the ice sheets that covered North America and Europe some 20,000 years ago. |
