Al Gore backlash: Why environmentalists are celebrating rising CO2 levels
----------------------------------------(NaturalNews) Thank goodness carbon dioxide levels are finally rising ever so slightly in our atmosphere, bringing much-needed carbon dioxide to the plants and forests of the world which have been starving for CO2. The lack of CO2 in the atmosphere is one of the most devastating limiting factors for plant growth and reforestation of the planet, and at just 400ppm -- that's just 400 micrograms per kilogram -- carbon dioxide is so low that Earth's plant life can barely breathe. http://www.naturalnews.com/040588_carbon_dioxide_environmentalists_Al_Gore.html |

The CET is the Central England Temperature - the average temperature in the triangle formed by London, Birmingham and Bristol. The anomaly is the difference in temperature to that measured during 1961 to 1990 For the year to date it is 1.01C below normal It's no longer funny because of the increased cost of heating in the UK which should have been turned off long ago. The high costs are due to the levies and forced infrastructure replacements that will, and I quote, "Combat Global Warming" and meet the absurd and legally binding commitments made in the UK's 2008 Climate Change Act https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_Change_Act_2008 Which is a sick joke being played out on all our lives.

This is a good sign

Original Size http://arctic.atmos.uiuc.edu/cryosphere/IMAGE...ly.ice.area.withtrend.jpg Currently 228,000 sq kms (slightly less than the size of the UK) More than normal Whichever way you want to look at it Sek it is not disappearing is it? It's oscillating around a norm with peaks and troughs changing year by year dependant on Weather Dave [Edit 2 times, last edit by David Autumns at Jun 3, 2013 11:54:23 AM] |

CFCs 'are the real culprit in global warming'
----------------------------------------BY:GRAHAM LLOYD, ENVIRONMENT EDITOR From: The Australian June 03, 2013 12:00AM BANNED aerosols that caused the ozone hole - not carbon dioxide - were responsible for global warming since the 1970s, according to published research from one of Canada's leading universities. The research predicts global temperatures will continue to fall for the next 50 to 70 years and sea levels will rise for two decades before starting to retreat. The peer-reviewed research by Qing-Bin Lu, a professor of physics and astronomy, biology and chemistry at Waterloo University, was published in the International Journal of Modern Physics B. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/health-s...ry-e6frg8y6-1226655487533 [Edit 1 times, last edit by GeraldRube at Jun 3, 2013 2:37:48 PM] |

And then??
----------------------------------------CFC warming theory challenged Monday, 3 June 2013 Martin Cuddihy and staff ABC Hot air: CFC-replacing hydrofluorocarbons, which are used in refrigeration, are increasing at the rate of 6 - 7 per cent a year (iStockphoto: saraficius) A theory that suggests banned aerosol gases are to blame for global warming, not carbon dioxide, has been questioned by climate scientists. In a paper published in the journal of Modern Physics B , Professor Qin-Bin Lu, a professor of physics and astronomy, biology and chemistry at the University of Waterloo challenges conventional thinking about the roots of climate change. http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2013/06/03/3773350.htm#.Uayqf_EpmXk "Conventional thinking says that the emission of human-made non-CFC gases such as carbon dioxide has mainly contributed to global warming. "In fact, the data shows that CFCs conspiring with cosmic rays caused both the polar ozone hole and global warming," claims Lu. |

Only one problem with all these explanations for Global Warming
----------------------------------------It isn't, not anymore There's an almighty battle for minds and proactive stomping on any dissent going on right at the minute as a result of http://unfccc.int/meetings/bonn_jun_2013/meeting/7431.php They are not going to let anyone divert them this time around Reality can't get a word in edgeways Dave |

Here's honest reality
----------------------------------------The kind the mainstream media hates They would like to tell you it's disappearing. The reality is poles apart. Here they are today large as life and the total (North + South) is greater than the average we have been able to view over a very short period of time. They are this minute in rude health Sek please do claim I am lying Dave [Edit 2 times, last edit by David Autumns at Jun 3, 2013 6:32:24 PM] |
