    The following list includes more than 500 qualified researchers, their home institutions, and the peer-reviewed studies they have published in professional journals providing historic and/or physical proxy evidence that:1) Most of the recent global warming has been caused by a long, moderate, natural cycle rather than by the burning of fossil fuels;2) The sun’s varying radiance impacts the Earth’s climate as more or fewer cosmic rays create more or fewer of the low, wet clouds that act as the Earth’s thermostats, deflecting more or less solar heat out into space.3) Sea levels are not rising rapidly nor are they likely to;4) Wild species are not being driven to extinction but rather are increasing the biodiversity of our wildlands;5) Fewer human deaths are likely rather than more as the current warming continues, since cold is far more dangerous and the Earth is always warming or cooling;6) Food production is likely to thrive during the decades ahead, rather than collapsing due to climate overheating; or dedicated server7) Our storms are likely to be fewer and milder as the declining temperature differential between the equator and the poles reduces their power.
