Global Warming stopped 16 yrs ago

So if this is correct it sort of blows a hole in the climate change lobby doesn't it,maybe the excuses for raising taxes on us all are just what I suspected bogus.

Polution isn't a good thing and should be reduced but the man-made "global warming" myth is a left wing plot to get us all to feel bad about having well lit and heated homes and driving cars etc.

Not so sure a 'plot' is the case, but the scientific community is deeply divided. The oganisations that argue against global warming tend not to receive funding from governments or a public voice quite so keenly as those that say it's a problem and justifies green taxation.

yes its suprising how little fuss has been made of this scientific proof.

The earth should have been going through a cooling cycle because the suns output is lower, but for now manmade global warming and the suns lower output are cancelling each other out, but as the suns output increases again and goes back into a warming cycle, the earth’s temperature will increase much faster than it should.

Man made global warming stopped the cooling cycle but will make the warming cycle worse than it should be.

Deep Solar Minimum

 

April 1, 2009: The sunspot cycle is behaving a little like the stock market. Just when you think it has hit bottom, it goes even lower.

 

2008 was a bear. There were no sunspots observed on 266 of the year's 366 days (73%). To find a year with more blank suns, you have to go all the way back to 1913, which had 311 spotless days: plot. Prompted by these numbers, some observers suggested that the solar cycle had hit bottom in 2008.

 

Maybe not. Sunspot counts for 2009 have dropped even lower. As of March 31st, there were no sunspots on 78 of the year's 90 days (87%).

 

It adds up to one inescapable conclusion: "We're experiencing a very deep solar minimum," says solar physicist Dean Pesnell of the Goddard Space Flight Center.

 

"This is the quietest sun we've seen in almost a century," agrees sunspot expert David Hathaway of the Marshall Space Flight Center.

 

In 2008, the sun set the following records:

 

A 50-year low in solar wind pressure:

A 12-year low in solar "irradiance"

A 55-year low in solar radio emissions:

 

Despite this the global temperature continues to rise slightly when it should have been cooling.

You really are an amusing bunch. Quoting a Daily Mail article, then tut-tutting about how other media won't report such "proof".

 

In case you missed the aftermath : the Met Office warned about the "misleading information" in David Rose's article, just as it did in January when he had written another piece on this topic.

Please dont make conclusions from daily mail articles. I studied oceanography at university and I can promise you that man's effect on the proportion of CO2 in the atmosphere IS a huge concern. The problem is that it looks set to lead to negative feedback loops, in which global warming may run out of control. This summer saw an unprecedented melt in the North pole area, where warming is most pronounced.

Why is it suprising? Wheres the money in it?
