100 REASONS WHY GLOBAL WARMING IS NATURAL
Campaigners yesterday attempted to pour scorn on “tenuous†global warming theories by issuing a dossier detailing 100 reasons why climate change is natural and not man-made.
The list includes the controversial claim that there is “no scientific proof†that rising levels of greenhouse gases are caused by human activity.
**SEE THE 100 REASONS HERE**The report, by the respected European Foundation, also argues that a higher level of carbon dioxide (CO2) – the main greenhouse gas – is not a problem because it helps to boost crop yields.
And it claims that the warming we are now experiencing is “mostly naturalâ€, pointing to historic shifts in the climate such as when Vikings farmed on Greenland in medieval times.
Political analyst Jim McConalogue, who wrote the report, said: “This demonstrates how tenuous, improper and indeed false the scientific and political claims are for man-made global warming, from claims that climate change can be controlled by human activity to the proposition that CO2 emissions represent a severe threat to our way of life, when in fact there is little evidence to support any of these claims.â€
This of course assumes that the global climate is warming at all…recent evidence indicates that this may well NOT be the case.
