    “Drop CCC (Climate Change Crisis) and Cap & Trade legislation. It is naive, non-scientific, irrelevant, hopeless and oxymoronic.”

    This is the primary recommendation of American aerospace engineer Burt Rutan based on this analysis of the IPCC data on global warming: http://wattsupwiththat.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/rutanagwdataanalysis.pdf
    This in not a Climatologist’s study, and that doesn’t matter. Its merit derives from the value of his analysis and interpretation of data.

    Those who disagree with Mr. Rutan’s recommendation will need to demonstrate that his analysis is flawed. I don’t think it can be done, but am open to those who will try.

    There is no doubt that the United Nations IPCC’s version of global warming is winning the public relations battle. The proof is that our governments are now implementing public policy intended to reduce the rise of the earth’s temperature.

    For those who are paying serious attention however, it is increasingly difficult to comprehend how they can justify discounting the growing chorus of dissenting views and agreeing with VP Gore that dissenters are corrupt quacks.

    Here are two current examples:

    UN Blowback: More Than 650 International Scientists Dissent Over Man-Made Global Warming Claims
    http://epw.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Minority.Blogs&ContentRecord_id=2158072e-802a-23ad-45f0-274616db87e6
    If all these guys are quacks, then Donald Duck deserves new respect.

    Then there’s this report that challenges the validity of IPCC’s climate models:
    http://www.aps.org/units/fps/newsletters/200807/monckton.cfm

    The study’s conclusion is worthy of serious consideration:
    “Even if temperature had risen above natural variability, the recent solar Grand Maximum may have been chiefly responsible. Even if the sun were not chiefly to blame for the past half-century’s warming, the IPCC has not demonstrated that, since CO2 occupies only one-ten-thousandth part more of the atmosphere that it did in 1750, it has contributed more than a small fraction of the warming. Even if carbon dioxide were chiefly responsible for the warming that ceased in 1998 and may not resume until 2015, the distinctive, projected fingerprint of anthropogenic “greenhouse-gas” warming is entirely absent from the observed record. Even if the fingerprint were present, computer models are long proven to be inherently incapable of providing projections of the future state of the climate that are sound enough for policymaking. Even if per impossibilethe models could ever become reliable, the present paper demonstrates that it is not at all likely that the world will warm as much as the IPCC imagines. Even if the world were to warm that much, the overwhelming majority of the scientific, peer-reviewed literature does not predict that catastrophe would ensue. Even if catastrophe might ensue, even the most drastic proposals to mitigate future climate change by reducing emissions of carbon dioxide would make very little difference to the climate. Even if mitigation were likely to be effective, it would do more harm than good: already millions face starvation as the dash for biofuels takes agricultural land out of essential food production: a warning that taking precautions, “just in case”, can do untold harm unless there is a sound, scientific basis for them. Finally, even if mitigation might do more good than harm, adaptation as (and if) necessary would be far more cost-effective and less likely to be harmful.
    In short, we must get the science right, or we shall get the policy wrong. If the concluding equation in this analysis (Eqn. 30) is correct, the IPCC’s estimates of climate sensitivity must have been very much exaggerated. There may, therefore, be a good reason why, contrary to the projections of the models on which the IPCC relies, temperatures have not risen for a decade and have been falling since the phase-transition in global temperature trends that occurred in late 2001. Perhaps real-world climate sensitivity is very much below the IPCC’s estimates. Perhaps, therefore, there is no “climate crisis” at all. At present, then, in policy terms there is no case for doing anything. The correct policy approach to a non-problem is to have the courage to do nothing.”

    While the global warming alarmists have done a masterful public relations job in promoting their agenda, they are losing badly in the areas of science, logic and common sense.

Global Warming - Presentation Transcript

  1. Are you Ready for the Sustainability and Greentech Revolutions? Climate Crisis Facts and Dangers
  2. Let’s cut to the heart of the matter… http://www.global-mindshift.org/memes/wombat.swf
  3. Global Warming Facts, Data and Consequences
  4. Some Facts
    • Human population x 4 in 100 years
    • It took 10000 generations of human beings to reach 2 B
    • We have tripled that in less that one lifetime
  5. Some Facts
    • A crisis in the relationship between human civilization and planet earth.
    • Through the emission of Green House Gases we are creating Global Warming .
    • The principles are quite simple :
  6. A reality in pictures
    • If a picture is worth a thousand words …
    • Before the warming: Glacier National Park, USA 1932
    • After the warming: Glacier National Park, USA 1988
  7. A reality in pictures
    • Before the warming: Peru, 1980
    • After the warming: Peru, 2002
  8. A reality in picture
    • Before the warming: Kilimanjaro, 1970
    • After the warming: Kilimanjaro, 2000
  9. A reality in pictures
    • Before the warming: Nepal, 1978
    • After the warming: Nepal, 2004
  10. A reality in pictures
    • Even more obvious from space, this pictures of the North Polar cap from NASA show a melting of 25% in 25 years:
  11. Some unequivocal data
    • At the end of 2002, the concentration of carbon dioxide was just above 370ppm.
    • This is probably the highest in at least 400,000 years
  12. Some unequivocal data
    • The Human Effect
  13. Some unequivocal Data
    • The number of category 4 and 5 hurricanes has almost doubled in the last 30 years. 2
    • Malaria has spread to higher altitudes in places like the Colombian Andes, 7,000 feet above sea level. 3
    • The flow of ice from glaciers in Greenland has more than doubled over the past decade. 4
    • At least 279 species of plants and animals are already responding to global warming, moving closer to the poles. 5
  14. Some unequivocal Data
    • Every country bears its share of responsibility, The USA being number one.
    Source: Footprint Network
  15. No more doubts
    • The International scientific community now unequivocally admits that humanity is very likely to be responsible for Global warming 1.
    • The Last report of the UN was produced by some 600 authors from 40 countries . Representatives from 113 governments reviewed and revised the Summary line-by-line before adopting it and accepting the underlying report in Paris, February 2, 2007 .
  16. The Consequences of sticking to ‘Business As Usual”
    • Global sea levels could rise by more than 20 feet with the loss of shelf ice in Greenland and Antarctica, devastating coastal areas worldwide. 7.
    • The arctic ocean could be ice free in summer by 2050. 8.
    • Heat waves will be more frequent and more intense.
    • Droughts and wildfires will occur more often.
  17. The Consequences of sticking to ‘Business As Usual”
    • More than a million species worldwide could be driven to extinction by 2050 and half of all species of life on Earth could be extinct within a 100 years . (today 12% of the birds, 25% of the mammals,32% of the amphibians are directly threatened) 9.
    • Coral Reefs: Warmer oceans and increased UV radiation contribute to massive coral reef die-offs.
    • Fishing: 90% of the large fish in the world’s ocean are already gone (Nature Magazine)
    • Dead zones: low-oxygen areas in the world’s ocean support no marine life. 146 dead zones in the world’s oceans (UN Environment Programme, 2004)
    • The income gap between the richest and poorest people on Earth is likely to continue to increase due to the depletion of natural resources.
  18. The Consequences of sticking to ‘Business As Usual”
    • The Stern Report 10 :
    • “ Our actions over the coming few decades could create risks of major disruption to economic and social activity, later in this century and in the next, on a scale similar to those associated with the great wars and the economic depression of the first half of the 20th century.”
    • “ One percent of global GDP is required to be invested a year in order to mitigate the effects of climate change, and that failure to do so could risk global GDP being up to twenty percent lower than it otherwise might be”
  19. We cannot let this happen!
    • It is a human reaction to turn to defeatism in front of such a huge issue but this is where we need to show determination.
    • Collectively, we have the power to shape events and the global economy.
    • We owe it to ourselves, our families, our companies and the world.
    • This is no time for small change this is time for a global revolution
    • Here in Silicon Valley we have much to contribute.
