The only good that will do is to teach people how NOT to argue against human induced climate change. The Great Global Warming Swindle has been shown to have quite a few problems, and demonstrated that it is itself a swindle.



This link does a pretty good job of showing why:

The Great Global Warming Swindle Swindle - Features - The Lab - Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Gateway to Science


...and also here:

“The Great Global Warming Swindle” is itself a Fraud and a Swindle


I particularly like this study published in Proceedings of The Royal Society in June 2007 which speaks specifically against the root of the claims being used by the GGW Swindle (emphasis mine):

Royal Society Publishing
There are many interesting palaeoclimate studies that suggest that solar variability had an influence on pre-industrial climate. There are also some detection-attribution studies using global climate models that suggest there was a detectable influence of solar variability in the first half of the twentieth century and that the solar radiative forcing variations were amplified by some mechanism that is, as yet, unknown. However, these findings are not relevant to any debates about modern climate change. Our results show that the observed rapid rise in global mean temperatures seen after 1985 cannot be ascribed to solar variability, whichever of the mechanisms is invoked and no matter how much the solar variation is amplified.


Here is an additional bit of data against the swindle swindle:

Deltoid: I must be psychic
What's more, Bolt didn't base this on the decision itself, but on Steve McIntyre's spin.
Like me, Michael Tobis felt that McIntyre was blatantly spinning the decision...


Like I said, the only reason to watch the Great Global Warming Swindle is to learn how NOT to argue against human induced climate change, or perhaps to educate yourself about how the people who do argue against human induced climate change lack integrity and how they are completely willing to lie to try making their case.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
