A good documentary on “Climate Change”. Steven Hayward of the Pacific Research Institute outlines the issue and proceeds to address the alarmist views while discussing the potential solutions rationally.

A very lucid and informative dissertation on Anthropogenic Global Warming can be found here.

This article contains an excellent explanation of the nature of CO2 and its contribution to the greenhouse effect.

The temperature data has just been released for 2007. Look very closely in the “Notes to editors” section:

The forecast value for 2008 mean temperature is considered indistinguishable from any of the years 2001-7, given the uncertainties in the data.

Consider what this really is saying. There has been no statistically detectable warming since 2001 and there does not appear to be any forecast for 2008. How can we have a planet-wide crisis over this kind of data?

A new study shows that the rise in CO2 levels is not causing global warming.

Once again, science is showing that the “theory” of global warming is not standing up to hard scrutiny. The theory predicts that warming in the upper atmosphere (the troposphere) should be much higher than at the surface. Satellite and balloon measurements are showing that this is not the case. Since the facts contradict the theory and the theory is what powers the computer models that the IPCC bases its report on, it does not take a Ph.D. in climate science to conclude that any rational person would dispute the conclusions in the IPCC report. Just because you say something over and over again does not make it true in science. You need actual data to back up your claim.

A site full of information on global warming can be found here. Some of this info is scientifically rigorous and some of it, not so much. But an interesting read nevertheless.
