[StBernard] NASA scientists say Global Warming is a lot of hype

[Westley Annis]

Pulled this off today's news wire service.  Looks like Al Gore and friends
are losing support from the science community.  See what these recent former
NASA scientist have to say.  Second to last paragraph, regarding Dr. Hansen,
says a lot.

Ex-NASA Scientists Find No Imminent Climate Threat


By John McLaughlin

A team of ex-NASA scientists working since February 2012 has cast serious
doubt <http://www.sys-con.com/node/2523162> on the science used to support
the man-made climate change hypothesis. 

The team of Apollo-era retirees, many with Ph.D degrees, voluntarily joined
together to attempt a disciplined study of current climate science after
becoming dismayed with NASA's increasing advocacy for alarmist man-made
climate change theories. The results of their work, now posted on the
internet <http://www.therightclimatestuff.com/> , conclude that the science
of what is causing global climate change or warming is clearly not settled
and never has been. Further, they say, there is no convincing physical
evidence to support the man-made climate change hypothesis. 

In their study, the team found no valid repeatable physical observations --
the standard test of any scientific hypothesis -- to support claims by
climate alarmists. Instead, those claims "are dominantly supported by
non-validated computer models and the output of these models should not be
relied upon by policy-makers." Among other conclusions:

. There is no immediate threat of catastrophic global warming even if some
warming occurs. The sea level is not going to suddenly begin a steep
acceleration of its 18,000-year rate of rise. Global sea level rise is not
currently accelerating despite what climate change alarmists claim. 

. The U.S. Government has overreacted to claims of a possible catastrophic
warming. The probable negative impacts to the economy, jobs, and an
increased cost of food, transportation and utilities will be severe and hurt
the poor and middle class the most. Real experiments show that Earth's
habitats and ecosystems could be damaged if CO2 levels are actually reduced.
Environmentalists have been grossly misled to believe that CO2 is a
pollutant.

Further validating the team's findings, recent release of satellite data
measuring global warming reveal no distinct trend up or down for the last
ten years. Even data issued last month

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Hansen> , long regarded as the principal
global warming alarmist within NASA, show no correlation with his
temperature forecasts dating back to 1988. 

President Obama now threatens to use the EPA
<http://www.nationaljournal.com/whitehouse/obama-s-climate-vow-could-make-ep
a-a-political-target-20130124> and other government agencies during his
second term for instituting policies without legislative action to limit
carbon-related emissions and carbon-based fuel extraction. With such
policies being based only on unsubstantiated climate change alarmism, valid
scientific opposition will be needed as never before.
