Sorry I was gone for the past few days and unable to participate in thei interesting and important discussion. I was in Belize, Sea Kayaking, experiencing a much colder and wetter dry season than usual. [sarcasm]Of course, a sign of global warming.[/sarcasm]
While there I was reading Michael Chrichton's
State of Fear novel
. It is an interesting fiction read with many interesting real graphs. Many of which show inconvenient cooling of many cities of the world. the only cities that have shown heating are the ones whose populations have drastically increased such as NY, NY. The rest of New York state has shown a steady cooling since 1880. The heat gain of the major cities concrete /asphalt structures likely account for much of the alleged Global Warming.
Another graph shows a steady increase in CO2 between 1940 and 1970 while the temperatures showed a steady decrease. This real anomoay has never been explained by the Global Warming Alarmists. It could very well be explained by the decrease in sunspot activity during this same period as shown in the graph of sunspot activity vs temperature anomalies on the friendsofscience.org web page.
Make no mistake about it Global Warming is either a myth of it is sun created. Mankind is still an insignificant speck on the surface of this planet.
The Kyoto resources should be redirected to fighting real pollution problems like smog. CO2 is not a threat, it's plant food.
