Something far beyond Kyoto is in order.<BR/><BR/>I'm aware of differences of opinion regarding anthropogenic climate change, but I am completely on the side of <A HREF="http://www.realclimate.org/" REL="nofollow">Real Climate</A>, and I dismiss <A HREF="http://www.climateaudit.org/" REL="nofollow">Climate Audit</A>. RealClimate are consistent with what I can make out with my senses and think through with my feeble brain. ClimateAudit does nothing but make me think of Karl Rove.<BR/><BR/>I like this <A HREF="http://timlambert.org/2005/04/gwsbingo/" REL="nofollow">Global Warming Sceptic Bingo</A> page you may have seen.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02211730939356678631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11522380.post-1142367320491853672006-03-14T13:15:00.000-07:002006-03-14T13:15:00.000-07:00There's also this meteo professor from MIT, Richar...There's also this meteo professor from MIT, <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Lindzen" REL="nofollow">Richard Lindzen</A> who claims that the impact of CO2 is front-loaded. That is, the greenhouse effect is log not linear and the majority of the impact has already been absorbed. His response to the Kyoto protocols would be reflected in this statement, "...if somebody says you should take jelly beans for cancer and you say that’s stupid, and he says, well can you suggest something else and you say, no, does that mean you have to go with jelly beans?"jj mollohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15011855944240477996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11522380.post-1142365477284068262006-03-14T12:44:00.000-07:002006-03-14T12:44:00.000-07:00We're getting hit by the hockey stick.

Here's an extensively documented discussion of the <A HREF="http://www.john-daly.com/hockey/hockey.htm" REL="nofollow">hockey stick</A> idea, where it came from, why it's wrong. He claims that it only represents Northern Hemisphere daytime record of summer sunlight. He talks about sea level measurements in Tasmania. His view is (was) that the driver for the climate is mostly solar variability, which squashes all the other parameters and is largely unpredictable.<BR/><BR/>The <A HREF="http://www.junkscience.com/" REL="nofollow">Junk Science</A> web site also has a number of sceptical viewpoints on what they view as "scare tactics".jj mollohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15011855944240477996noreply@blogger.com
