The cern
GreyFlcn: i wonder if this theory has been proven to be wrong several times, why the Cern is doing this experiment?

The roots of the experiment can be traced as far back as two centuries, when the Astronomer Royal, William Herschel, noticed a correlation between sunspots and the price of wheat in England. This marked the first observation that Earth's climate may be affected by variations of the Sun. Solar-climate variability has remained a great puzzle since that time, despite an intensive scientific effort. During the ‘Little Ice Age’ around the 17th and 18th centuries, when sunspots all but disappeared for 70 years, the cosmic ray intensity increased and the climate cooled.

Global cooling is coming soon!
Introduction
In this presentation, I will put forward a prediction of climate to 2030 that differs from most in the public domain. It is a prediction of imminent cooling. And it is a prediction that you will be able to check up on every day.
I am going to start off by looking at the near term temperature record, and then go back successively further in time, looking at the range of temperatures in the historic record and then the geological record. Then we will examine the role of the Sun in changing climate, and following that the contribution of anthropogenic warming from carbon dioxide.
I will finish up combining a solar-driven prediction and the anthropogenic contribution to make a prediction of climate to 2030.

French news about global warming
Max,
Here is a two references about the articles i was talking about. I don't believe in these articles. It was just to show the mass hysteria in france:

About the diet which is 'global warming' compliant, i have read this today in a 'free'newspaper, i will try tomorrow to find the reference.

Nicolas Hulot
In France, they had a presidential election recently. It's over now, but before the election all the major candidates have signed 'the ecological pact' made by Nicolas Hulot. Nicolas Hulot is a very famous presenter in France. He has wrote the book 'For an ecological pact'. If you read the book, you will see that he want us to live like the Amish. And i can tell you that this is not an exxageration. (don't use cars, eat only regional fruits and vegetables, don't eat too much meat, live nearby a train station, etc.)
What is very amazing is that all important candidates have signed this pact, but also more and more 'important' people in politics and economics are supporting this pact in France.So we are not speaking here only about 'fear mongering Republicans and Far left nutjobs'On 'The Medieval Warm Period was just as warm as today'--Repeating this point does not make it true posted 2 years, 6 months ago 216 Responses
Solutions
Only fear mongering Republicans (and Far left nutjobs) say that we should all be forced to live like the Amish.
I don't know in other part of the world, but i can tell you that in France this is not the case.
Just to give you an example, here is what i read lately in medias about global warming:
- Cellulars are increasing global warming. We should not use cellular too much.
- Eat special diets which are not increasing CO2.
- We should not take bath, only showers.
- the global warming will cause 1 billion of people to leave their places.
I heard these news in 'major' medias. Not in a special Republican or Far left newspaper.
Of course these news are dump! But it's not amazing as there is a mass hysteria about global warming!

Greenpeacesecrets
Exxonsecrets is made by GreenPeace. So it's not a neutral reference!
I hope we will have someday a www.GreenpeaceSecrets.org! in order to show how they work as a lobby :-) On 'The Medieval Warm Period was just as warm as today'--Repeating this point does not make it true posted 2 years, 6 months ago 216 ResponsesFear and propaganda
I am not a scientist, but i 'feel' anthropogenic global warming is wrong. Why? Because every day i see only apocalyptic news about global warming in medias. And when i hear apocalyptic news, i know it's only propaganda in order to create fear and to manipulate people. Its has nothing to do with science. Besides, i don't see many scientists who believes in anthropogenic global warming and try to lessen these apocalyptic news. So i know that's they are not objectives.
Global warming will have negative and positive sides. Why we only speak about the negative sides? Because it's only politics, not science.
Even if we consider that anthropogenic global warming is true, the solutions i hear are totally utopian : switch off the lights, don't take baths anymore, stop eating meat!
If greens want to go back to middle-age, i don't mind, but why they want everybody to behave like them? In order to save the planet? Really?
I hear that oil companies are evil. But i don't think environmental associations are better. They use apocalyptic news in order to create fear.On 'The Medieval Warm Period was just as warm as today'--Repeating this point does not make it true posted 2 years, 6 months ago 216 Responses29 not enough?
Max,
Here is another interesting document: The Physical Evidence of Earth’s Unstoppable 1,500-Year Climate Cycle by S. Fred Singer & Dennis T. Avery:
http://www.ncpa.org/pub/st/st279/
and for the document in pdf format http://www.ncpa.org/pub/st/st279/st279.pdf
Of course, some people will tell you that Singer works for oil companies. But i find this argument irrelevant, as if you look at the end of the pdf document, you will find more than 100 notes. I didn't count how much locations there are in this document. But if you add the locations in this document and the locations in the CO2Science site, i feel it makes a lot of locations.On 'The Medieval Warm Period was just as warm as today'--Repeating this point does not make it true posted 2 years, 6 months ago 216 Responses
Medieval Warm Period Project's database
Answer: There is no good evidence that the MWP was a globally warm period comparable to today. Regionally, there may have been places that exhibited notable warmth -- Europe, for example -- but all global proxy reconstructions agree it is warmer now, and the temperature is rising faster now, than at any time in the last one or even two thousand years.
Do you know CO2Science website?
In particular, they have a Medieval Warm Period Project's database, which contains dozens of references for all continents:http://www.co2science.org/scripts/CO2ScienceB2C/data/mwp/ ...On 'The Medieval Warm Period was just as warm as today'--Repeating this point does not make it true posted 2 years, 6 months ago 216 Responses
