http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/12/091230184221.htm A really inconvenient truth, for If the climate gate scandal wasn't enough to put and end to the AGW cap and trade nonsense then this new data ought to. This study proves the AGW alarmists computer models are based on false assumptions. According to the IPCC, this "atmospheric fraction" of CO2 is increasing, and is destined to increase even more, because the processes which have been removing over half of human-emitted CO2 will be unable to continue to do so. But, according to this study, those models are wrong. The rate of increase is unlikely to be nearly as high as the IPCC modelers predicted, and the consequences are well... inconsequential. Lord Monckton has a good article, here: http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/monckton/temperature_and_co2_change_briefing.html ---------------------------------------- ----- The abstract from the scientific journal is here: http://www.agu.org/pubs/crossref/2009/2009GL040613.shtml The conclusion: "The analysis further shows that the statistical model of a constant airborne fraction agrees best with the available data if emissions from land use change are scaled down to 82% or less of their original estimates. Despite the predictions of coupled climate-carbon cycle models, no trend in the airborne fraction can be found." ---------------------------------------- ----- Maybe Al Gore and Rajendra Pachauri, should return that Nobel prize? Oh (bama) that's right! you don't have to actually accomplish anything worthwhile to humanity to get one of those anymore!
