1 MYTH Planet earth is currently undergoing global warming

FACT Accurate and representative temperature measurements from satellites and balloons show that the planet has cooled significantly in the last two or three years, losing in only 18 months 15% of the claimed warming which took over 100 years to appear — that warming was only one degree fahrenheit (half of one degree Celsius) anyway, and part of this is a systematic error from groundstation readings which are inflated due to the 'urban heat island effect' i.e. local heat retention due to urban sprawl, not global warming...and it is these, 'false high' ground readings which are then programmed into the disreputable climate models, which live up to the GIGO acronym — garbage in, garbage out.
2 MYTH Even slight temperature rises are disastrous, ice caps will melt, people will die

FACT In the UK, every mild winter saves 20,000 cold-related deaths, and scaled up over northern Europe mild winters save hundreds of thousands of lives each year, also parts of ice caps are melting yet other parts are thickening but this isn't reported as much (home experiment: put some water in a jug or bowl, add a layer of ice cubes and mark the level — wait until the ice has melted and look again, the level will have fallen). Data from ice core samples shows that in the past, temperatures have risen by ten times the current rise, and fallen again, in the space of a human lifetime.
3 MYTH Carbon Dioxide levels in our atmosphere at the moment are unprecedented (high). FACT Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, currently only 350 parts per million have been over 18 times higher in the past at a time when cars, factories and power stations did not exist — levels rise and fall without mankind's help.
4 MYTH Mankind is pumping out carbon dioxide at a prodigious rate.

FACT 96.5% of all carbon dioxide emissions are from natural sources, mankind is responsible for only 3.5%, with 0.6% coming from fuel to move vehicles, and about 1% from fuel to heat buildings. Yet vehicle fuel (petrol) is taxed at 300% while fuel to heat buildings is taxed at 5% even though buildings emit nearly twice as much carbon dioxide!
5 MYTH Carbon dioxide changes in the atmosphere cause temperature changes on the earth.

FACT A report in the journal 'Science' in January of this year showed using information from ice cores with high time resolution that since the last ice age, every time when the temperature and carbon dioxide levels have shifted, the carbon dioxide change happened AFTER the temperature change, so that man-made global warming theory has put effect before cause — this shows that reducing carbon dioxide emissions is a futile King Canute exercise! What's more, both water vapour and methane are far more powerful greenhouse gases than carbon dioxide but they are ignored.
6 MYTH Reducing car use will cut carbon dioxide levels and save the planet

FACT The planet does not need saving, but taking this on anyway, removing every car from every road in every country overnight would NOT produce any change in the carbon dioxide level of the atmosphere, as can be seen using the numbers from Fact 4, and in any case it is pointless trying to alter climate by changing carbon dioxide levels as the cause and effect is the other way round — it is changes in the activity of the Sun that cause temperature changes on earth, with any temperature rise causing carbon dioxide to de-gas from the oceans.
7 MYTH The recent wet weather and flooding was caused by mankind through 'global warming' FACT Extreme weather correlates with the cycle of solar activity, not carbon dioxide emissions or political elections, the recent heavy rainfall in winter and spring is a perfect example of this — it occurred at solar maximum at a time when solar maxima are very intense — this pattern may well repeat every 11 years until about 2045.
8 MYTH The climate change levy, petrol duty, CO2 car tax and workplace parking charges are justifiable environmental taxes.

FACT As carbon dioxide emissions from cars and factories does not have any measurable impact on climate, these taxes are 'just another tax' on enterprise and mobility, and have no real green credentials.
9 MYTH Scientists on the Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issue reports that say 'global warming' is real and that we must do something now.

FACT Scientists draft reports for the IPCC, but the IPCC are bureaucrats appointed by governments, in fact many scientists who contribute to the reports disagree with the 'spin' that the IPCC and media put on their findings.
The latest report suggests that the next 100 years might see a temperature change of 6 Celsius yet a Lead Author for the IPCC (Dr John Christy UAH/NASA) has pointed out that the scenarios with the fastest warming rates were added to the report at a late stage, at the request of a few governments — in other words the scientists were told what to do by politicians.
10 MYTH There are only a tiny handful of maverick scientists who dispute that man-made global warming theory is true.

FACT There are nearly 18,000 signatures from scientists worldwide on a petition called The Oregon Petition which says that there is no evidence for man-made global warming theory nor for any impact from mankind's activities on climate.
Many scientists believe that the Kyoto agreement is a total waste of time and one of the biggest political scams ever perpetrated on the public ... as H L Mencken said "the fundamental aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed, and hence clamorous to be led to safety, by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary" ... the desire to save the world usually fronts a desire to rule it.

Global Warming, The Myth

Global Warming Hysteria

The Great British Solar Scam (and the scourge of feed-in tariffs)
The British Government is pushing solar panels by paying homeowners in the UK to invest in them. Before you make the mistake of actually doing it if you live in the UK - or anywhere outside the tropics - you need to read "The Great British Solar Scam" here at Energy Tribune. Here's a taster: In April the outgoing Labour Government introduced a new feed-in tariff scheme obliging the power companies to pay their customers for any power they may produce either for themselves or for feeding into the grid. The money to pay them will, of course, be raised through higher energy bills. As Monbiot points out, the trouble is that these subsidizing feed-in tariff schemes too often end up rewarding schemes that are “comically inefficient.” It is not often I agree with George Monbiot, but I applaud the sense and humanity inherent in his biggest two gripes over the national solar plan: 1. The scheme hits the poor hardest by shifting a total wealth of $12.7 billion from society’s poorest (who will have zero chance of raising the large amounts of cash to install the wind, solar et al infrastructure in the first place) to the middle classes (the ones able to afford the investment in infrastructure). 2. The scheme makes no economic sense whatsoever as there are far more efficient ways to lower carbon emissions as the publication earlier this year of the government’s own table tariffs makes abundantly clear. ?

UN Economists Propose Fast-track Green Taxes for $100bn Climate Fund
So how do you feel about being taxed 'indirectly' by the UN to the tune of $100bn a year - $1 trillion a decade - so it can dish your money out as it - an unelected, unaccountable bureacracy - deems fit? For the full story go here. Here's a taster: The UN economists clearly see a new “indirect” green-tax regime as a way around the acrimonious international impasse and the tardy response in meeting national pledges. The taxes they suggest include new carbon levies, international air fare taxes, auctioning the right to pollute and cross-border financial deals, as well as taxes on government grants and loans, each potentially raising US$10 billion annually. The call for a raft of green taxes, by a nongovernment bureaucracy, in recent years already excoriated for its lack of good financial accounting via the scandal of the 2003 oil-for-food program, also raises the prospect of a new global order, an order outside electorally accountable governance able to raise funds by proxy. But the growing dilemma for the UN’s climate-fund administrators and democratic government alike is, according to Dr. Peiser, an even more basic PR one: “For most voters today, green means more expensive, a very negative perception that is only going to get worse”. As far as weary Western taxpayers are concerned, it seems that ‘saving the earth’ shouldn’t mean costing it.

Wind Over Nuclear: Green Zealot Huhne Blowing UK Power Future
Just published today at Energy Tribune my article summing up David Cameron's disastrous mistake installing an anti-nuclear, green zealot, Lib Dim (sic) as Energy secretary. Go here for full text. Here's a taster: What was David Cameron thinking? Sure, he had to cut some unpalatable deals with the Liberal Democrats to get into power. Sure, that would mean living with a few uncomfortable appointments to his Cabinet team. But in handing Chris Huhne the Energy and Climate Secretariat, Cameron not only shocked UK energy insiders – but the appointment has almost certainly sown the toxic seeds of disunity for the “brokeback coalition.” Chris Huhne is on a mission to stop all nuclear development. While he and his anti-nuclear Liberal Democrats signed on to a deal by which they agreed to abstain from any Parliamentary vote to approve nuclear legislation, Huhne knew there would be more than one way to undermine a pro-nuclear policy. For a start, he could announce there was “no money” for state subsidies of the proposed new generation of nuclear power stations. Next, he could gamble Britain’s energy future on the meagre energy return offered by wind power. By the end of July, just two months into office, Huhne had done both. Great graphic, is it not?

The solar system is warming.

But it is the sun – not humans – that is causing climate change. Even the ice caps on Mars are melting. So tell me, how did our SUVs do that?

RUSH: The EPA put out a memo. It's an Obama administration memo. This memo admits that CO2 is not a pollutant. Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant. This memo alludes to the fact that there is no proof. Somebody in the Obama administration really goofed up.

Two Peer-Reviewed Scientific Papers Debunk CO2 Myth

In short, if two hundred years of CO2 production had actually caused the observed uptrend and warmer climate, then increasing the amount of produced CO2 by fifty to one hundred percent over the next decade or more should produce an observable effect. Also if the earth’s ability to absorb CO2 was been over ridden we should also observe a sharp leveraged acceleration in the rise in atmospheric CO2.

No such confirmation has occurred. Therefore, we can declare this hypothesis (or myth) as busted.
