A question for which I have read no reasonable answer that doesn’t sound like hocus/pocus (change the focus):
If CO2 causes global warming, why does the temperature go up BEFORE the CO2 level follows? This is the message of the ice cores and other methods for linking historical temperature and CO2 levels.
From the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works :: Minority Page
Aussie Scientist Says ‘No relationship between CO2 and temperature’
The bad news for global warming alarmists just keeps rolling in. Below is a very small sampling of very inconvenient developments for Gore, the United Nations, and the mainstream media. Peer-reviewed studies, analyses, and prominent scientists continue to speak out to refute climate fears. The majority of data presented below is from just the past week. Also see: U.S. Senate Minority Report: “Over 400 Prominent Scientists (now over 500 and rapidly growing) Disputed Man-Made Global Warming Claims in 2007” & ‘Consensus’ On Man-Made Global Warming Collapses in 2008 – July 18, 2008 & An August 2007 report detailed how proponents of man-made global warming fears enjoy a monumental funding advantage over skeptical scientists.
You really want to look over this entire report and run down some of the links to get a flavor for what you’re not getting in the major media. Don’t forget to check out Part Two of the report, too.
In the meantime, the Left will continue to blab on that “the case is closed” and “the evidence is all in”. Something’s all in, all right…. and the only thing that seems closed to me are the minds of the eco-panic Left.
