New Finnish Study Finds Human Activity Has Minor Influence on Global Temperature Change
A Finnish study done by researchers at the University of Turku found that mankind only accounts for a minute portion of the global temperature change over the past 100 years. Jyrki Kauppinen and Pekka Malmi from the Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Turku, claim in their paper (pdf), entitled “No experimental evidence for the significant anthropogenic (man-made) climate change,” published on June 29. “The IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) climate sensitivity is about one order of magnitude (i.e. 10 times) too high, because a strong negative feedback of the clouds is missing in climate models. If we pay attention to the fact that only a small part of the increased CO2 concentration is anthropogenic, we have to recognize that the anthropogenic climate change does not exist in practice.” According to the study, even though the global temperature has risen by 0.1 degrees celsius the past 100 years, human activity only accounts for a tenth of that amount, about 0.01 degrees celsius, a negligible amount. They claim that the IPCC’s findings overestimate the influence of CO2 on climate change and human activities which contribute to the global temperature rise. Furthermore, they claim that they have only used experimental evidence in their study, whereas researchers of the IPCC formulated statements are based on computational results, which filtered out the tremendous influence of cloud formation because it simply didn’t fit their theory. “That is why those models give a very small natural temperature change leaving a very large change for the contribution of the greenhouse gases in the observed temperature,” The report said. Instead, their findings point out that low cloud formations are responsible for climate change, they claim. “The changes in the low cloud cover fraction practically control the global temperature.” These findings corroborate well with a report by researchers from the University of Kobe in Japan, published on June 28, entitled, “Revealing the impact of cosmic rays on the Earth’s climate,” that also states that cloud formations—that often go unnoticed by regularly used computing models—make up for the most part of climate change.

When galactic cosmic rays increased during the Earth’s last geomagnetic reversal transition 780,000 years ago, the umbrella effect of low-cloud cover led to high atmospheric pressure in Siberia, causing the East Asian winter monsoon to become stronger. This is evidence that galactic cosmic rays influence changes in the Earth’s climate. The findings were made by a research team led by Professor Masayuki Hyodo (Research Center for Inland Seas, Kobe University) and published on June 28 in the online edition of Scientific Reports. The Svensmark Effect is a hypothesis that galactic cosmic rays induce low cloud formation and influence the Earth’s climate. Tests based on recent meteorological observation data only show minute changes in the amounts of galactic cosmic rays and cloud cover, making it hard to prove this theory. However, during the last geomagnetic reversal transition, when the amount of galactic cosmic rays increased dramatically, there was also a large increase in cloud cover, so it should be possible to detect the impact of cosmic rays on climate at a higher sensitivity.

It's simply that they are not explicitly modeled. That is, there isn't an established physics formula that the programs use to calculate how clouds are formed, and what impact they have for one very simple reason. No one knows enough about cloud formation and impact to create such a formula. As such, clouds are handled through a process known as Parametrization. Of course a host of other factors are handled the same way, which is why many of the AGW advocates don't want you to know how the sausage is made. The use of Parametrization is a long established element of computer modeling, but one must understand that computer models are not necessarily reality. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/m3dZl3yfGpc" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

So your sayin' that who whole "robust" claim as it related to modeling might not be all that true?

The only three 100% accurate claims that can be made based on the climate models; 1. They will be wrong. 100% chance they will not accurately predict future climate. 2. Every computer model, all 1000+ of them, will all be wrong on the same side of actual temperature measurements, which is to say, every computer model has a 100% chance of being wrong by overestimating the temperature. 3. The 100% wrong climate models will be used to create policy, and get reported as "science", factual, and undeniable. To prove it, they will take a vote and "consensus makes science". I'm sure all of those "consensus science" folks will likewise agree that God exists, too, because the vast majority of people believe he does, and that establishes scientific fact, apparently. |

This was from the the Dems debate last night. DNC Chairman Tom Perez was firing up the crowd and came out with this little gem.

Everyone seems to have vacated climate change and jumped back onto Global warming with a vengence. Time to point out the liars and the bad science with renewed vigor.

Two things:
1) I'm not remotely convinced that if the temperature went up on average 1.5 degrees celcius it would be an utter disaster and end life as we know it on the planet. I'm not in favor of dramatic, knee jerk reactions to slight climate variance which can itself cause palpable harm, and whose efficacy is not yet understood, and thus it may not even help. 2) From a "conservation of resources" standpoint, we need to understand that we're at the point in human civilization where digging resources out of the earth is really cheap, and we're also at the point where we can globally deplete resources. If everyone on the planet decides to eat Salmon, barring regulation and intervention, we can fish salmon to extinction in a couple years, no problem. The cost of the fish will never rise high enough for the market to regulate itself and prevent that from occurring. So at this time, we *can* strip mine all fossil fuels, natural gas, and other carbon deposits out of the earth, and burn them all for fuel. Even IF that would have no adverse impact (and mock the doomsday crew all you want, averse health effects, birth defects, and so forth have a demonstrable correlation to increases in air pollution), does anyone really think that's a good idea? Cooking with a gas stove or grill is great, and vastly superior to charcoal and electric in my opinion. I want that to still be an option for people 100 years from now, but when my propane tank for my grill holds 5 pounds and lasts me a month of fairly heavy use, while a 1000MW plant burns about 4.8 Million Tons of gas PER DAY, I'm concerned that won't happen. So regardless of the absurdity of certain claims from the most ardent climate change supporters, does anyone think it's a bad idea to transition Away from burning all the natural resources built up over the entire history of our planet, and for our electricity generation and transportation at minimum transitioning towards renewables, nuclear, electric vehicles, that kind of thing, even if it's marginally more expensive?
