No consensus on global warming

Al Gore Jr. was recently awarded a prize for his "work" on global warming. Gore Jr. proclaims "consensus" global warming exists AND it is caused by man.

Not necessarily!

A new analysis of peer-reviewed literature reveals more than 500 scientists have published evidence refuting at least one element of current manmade global warming scares.

More than 300 of the scientists found evidence that 1) a natural moderate 1,500-year climate cycle has produced more than a dozen global warmings similar to ours since the last Ice Age and/or that 2) our modern warming is linked strongly to variations in the sun's irradiance.

"This data and the list of scientists make a mockery of recent claims that a scientific consensus blames humans as the primary cause of global temperature increases since 1850," said Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Dennis Avery.

According to Avery, other researchers found evidence that 3) sea levels are failing to rise importantly; 4) that our storms and droughts are becoming fewer and milder with this warming as they did during previous global warmings; 5) that human deaths will be reduced with warming because cold kills twice as many people as heat; and 6) that corals, trees, birds, mammals, and butterflies are adapting well to the routine reality of changing climate.

"There may have been a consensus of guesses among climate model-builders," says Fred Singer, co-author of the new book, Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years. "However, the models only reflect the warming, not its cause."

He noted that about 70 percent of the earth's post-1850 warming came before 1940, and thus was probably not caused by human-emitted greenhouse gases. The net post-1940 warming totals only a tiny 0.2 degrees Celsius.

Before "true believers" tax citizens and increase energy costs because of "global warming", shouldn't we have accurate information?
