global warming

You've heard it many times.

--The 'left wing' U.S. media is 'scare-mongering and alarmist' about climate change. They are frightening the people of the U.S. about the affects of global warming without having enough facts and research to back up their statements. --

The statements from researchers 'on the ground' ARE very alarming, no one can dispute that. Here are a few of the past year or so from separate, independent, long-term scientific studies. [Links to the report that these statements are ripped from are provided below.]

Last month was the warmest global land temperature for March ever recorded but la Nina in the Equatorial Pacific kept the global temps. down to second warmest.

A weekend of statewide smoke haze from annual forestry burn-offs has left a sour taste in the mouths of many Tasmanians and continued the logging industry’s massive contribution to annual greenhouse gas emissions.

A team of Australian Research Scientists have concluded a month-long oceanic cruise measuring ocean currents between Australia and Antarctica.(1)

You have most likely never heard of the 'Stern Review', a 700 page document that discusses the effect of climate change and global warming on the world economy which was published 18 months ago in Europe, and shook the establishment with its stark predictions of economic havoc that will be the result of climate change around the world.(1) He was widely criticised for painting such a grim picture of the future.

Well guess what, he has changed his tune.

The videos linked below are part of an effort to mount a constitutional case in the Australian High Court to have the Regional Forest Agreement and destruction of further habitat deemed unconstitutional and stopped according to Section 100 of the Australian Constitution.

   Oceans hold much more heat than the atmosphere can.  Some 3,000 scientific robots that are plying the ocean have sent home a puzzling message. These  diving instruments suggest that the oceans have not warmed up at all over the past four or five years. 

could mean that global warming has taken a breather. Or it could mean scientists
aren't quite understanding what their robots are telling them.

NSW
unit and townhouse dwellers are being forced to contribute to global
warming by a state government law that encourages body corporates to
ban the hanging of washing where it can be seen, according to Greens
NSW MP John Kaye.

Commenting on a story on page 8 of today's
Sun-Herald, Dr Kaye said: "Residents without the opportunity to hang
their laundry out to dry are left with no alternative but to use
electric dryers.

"While natural sunshine provides free solar
power to dry clothes, the average electric-powered unit is responsible
for almost a half a tonne of carbon dioxide each year.

NOAA released a report Friday that says January's temperature was close to average although they also pointed out that the Northeast region of the US had unusually warm weather.[1]

An extremely informative, in-depth account of four of the major global warming "confusionists" is available free-online.

This is unequivocally true. The three ice cores of Greenland and the Antarctic have all shown this to be a fact.

The Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) has released its report showing last year tied with 1998 as the second warmest year just behind 2005.

The climate change deniers never miss a chance to tell us that research
is showing the Antarctic ice sheet is actually growing. That sounds
like the total amount of ice is increasing and things are just
fine......the globe isn't heating up if it's not happening
there......right?

That IS enough to make some people disbelieve the climate scientists
because, after all, no one wants to think the climate is going to
steadily get worse. We all secretly hope that the deniers are right.

Yes, the Antarctic ice sheet is growing in height in the central
region, but making just that one point is very misleading and quite
dishonest.
