Planetary Climate Change?

Christopher Monckton, who once advised Margaret Thatcher, demonstrates via 30 equations that computer models used by the UN’s climate panel (IPCC) were pre-programmed with overstated values for the three variables whose product is “climate sensitivity” (temperature increase in response to greenhouse-gas increase), resulting in a 500-2000% overstatement of CO2’s effect on temperature in the IPCC’s latest climate assessment report, published in 2007.


· The IPCC’s 2007 climate summary overstated CO2’s impact on temperature by 500-2000%;
· CO2 enrichment will add little more than 1 °F (0.6 °C) to global mean surface temperature by 2100;
· Not one of the three key variables whose product is climate sensitivity can be measured directly;
· The IPCC’s values for these key variables are taken from only four published papers, not 2,500;
· The IPCC’s values for each of the three variables, and hence for climate sensitivity, are overstated;
· “Global warming” halted ten years ago, and surface temperature has been falling for seven years;
· Not one of the computer models relied upon by the IPCC predicted so long and rapid a cooling;
· The IPCC inserted a table into the scientists’ draft, overstating the effect of ice-melt by 1000%;
· It was proved 50 years ago that predicting climate more than two weeks ahead is impossible;
· Mars, Jupiter, Neptune’s largest moon, and Pluto warmed at the same time as Earth warmed;
· In the past 70 years the Sun was more active than at almost any other time in the past 11,400 years.
