FACT: The National Academy of Sciences reported in 2001 that, "Because
of the large and still uncertain level of natural variability inherent
in the climate record and the uncertainties in the time histories of
the various forcing agents...a causal linkage between the buildup of
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and the observed climate changes
during the 20th century cannot be unequivocally established." It also
noted that 20 years' worth of data is not long enough to estimate long-
term trends.


That was on 01. They've changed their minds


You mean they were wrong before?


Take the original "Global Cooling" statement ( often misquoted). that
the press took out of context and all of a sudden we were headed
toward another ice age. The scientist who made the statement gave a
lecture last month on University TV. When asked the inevitable he
replied, that he never predicted global cooling as such. He said the
original statement was the given cooling would happen "if the
particulate matter (pollution) in the atmosphere doubled by a given
date". (I don't remember the amount and date but could look it up)
So the global cooling every one latched onto was never really
predicted, at least not by the guy they were giving credit for it.



How very interesting....
