There is quite a lot of evidence accumulating from ice cores that in the recent geological past, increases in CO2 levels followed climate warming, the reverse of the current hypothesis and in accord with that Wiki statement. Yep. Thats been fairly well known ever since people looked more closely at the graphs Al Gore Rythm pointed to in his infamous film 'a very convenient lie' They showed that CO2 inrcerase follows global warming by a couple of hundred years. 200 years ago we were beginning to come out of the little ice age. -- Microsoft : the best reason to go to Linux that ever existed. |

And that process is still continuing, modulated by the 50-60 year cycle of the PDO, resulting in the rising saw-tooth of climate temperatures seen over the last 150 or so years, and nothing to do with anthropogenic CO2. You know that. I know that. Doesn't make for much of a media story though, and if you have aspirations to a career in science it isn't going to get you any funding. |

Trouble is all the climate "scientists" are second raters. You really think they are that good? All the ones I have come across are academic wannabees chasing fame and fortune. Bunch of ****s, all of them -- The biggest threat to humanity comes from socialism, which has utterly diverted our attention away from what really matters to our existential survival, to indulging in navel gazing and faux moral investigations into what the world ought to be, whilst we fail utterly to deal with what it actually is. |

The issue though is why make it worse if we can stop it whatever the reason?
I don't think the science can be challenged that we are adding to it, the only question is, is there another reason making things worse.

Trouble is all the climate "scientists" are second raters. Somewhere in his many writings, Feynman makes the point that you can recognise good scientists by the way they put a *lot* of effort into looking for things wrong with their latest pet theory. These days all the pressure is to publish by press release. |

Brian When Arrhenius recognised that carbon dioxide was a greenhouse gas, and showed that the effect on temperature was logarithmic, he suggested that more carbon burning might beneficially stave off the next ice age. A kilometer of ice on top of most of the current main international capitals is something of an environmental impact. |
