Global warming 'is good and is not our fault'
By Sophie Borland
Last Updated: 2:27am BST 17/09/2007
| Quote: | Global warming is an entirely natural phenomenon and its effects can even be beneficial, according to two leading researchers.
Recent climate change is not caused by man-made pollution, but is instead part of a 1,500-year cycle of warming and cooling that has happened for the last million years, say the authors of a controversial study.
Dennis Avery, an environmental economist, and Professor Fred Singer, a physicist, have looked at the work of more than 500 scientists and concluded that it is very doubtful that man-made global warming exists.
They also say that temperature increase is actually a good thing as in the past sudden cool periods have killed twice as many people as warm spells. |

| Is it really a "fault" if it's good? |

Of course not. That is why it is NOT our fault.  |

Hi All,
Err, given the last few years temperature stasis, isn't the real issue,
we are "preparing" for warming when it's going to be cooling...
That could be far far worse, surely.
NB - This worked on my first post...
Who put that advert in, NOT ME.
- Just realised adverts are put on automatically, to the last post in a thread....I think.
(If it helps pay for the forum, it's OK by me.) _________________ CO2 driving climate change is THE flat earth society (reborn). |

It's a free forum and the ads are the "price you pay". _________________

I have the book in question.It is worth purchasing as it has a good footnote listing of the many papers cited in the book.
The information in the book appears compelling to support the statement of a 1,500 year cycle.
You can always read the reviews at Amazon books. |
