The story gets more complicated -- and interesting. Here, via Benny Peiser's always valuable email, is Monckton's letter to the American Physical Society: 19 July 2008 The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley Carie, Rannoch, PH17 2QJ, UK monckton@mail.com Arthur Bienenstock, Esq., Ph.D., President, American Physical Society, Wallenberg Hall, 450 Serra Mall, Bldg 160, Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA 94305. By email to artieb@slac.stanford.edu Dear Dr. Bienenstock, Physics and Society The editors of Physics and Society, a newsletter of the American Physical Society, invited me to submit a paper for their July 2008 edition explaining why I considered that the Warming that might be expected from anthropogenic enrichment of the atmosphere with carbon dioxide might be significantly less than the IPCC imagines. I very much appreciated this courteous offer, and submitted a paper. The commissioning editor referred it to his colleague, who subjected it to a thorough and competent scientific review. I was delighted to accede to all of the reviewer's requests for revision (see the attached reconciliation sheet). Most revisions were intended to clarify for physicists who were not climatologists the method by which the IPCC evaluates climate sensitivity - a method which the IPCC does not itself clearly or fully explain. The paper was duly published, immediately after a paper by other authors setting out the IPCC's viewpoint. Some days later, howe ... Source: www.freep.com --- 12 days ago

To mix a metaphor, I was waiting for the other shoe to drop before jumping on the bandwagon. I’m referring to the paper submitted to the American Physical Society by Christopher Monckton, claiming that the IPCC’s estimate of the Earth’s climate sensitivity (the amount of Warming that occurs as CO2 increases) had been vastly overestimated: Rumor Debunked: Physicists Did Not Flip-Flop on Global Warming : Stories of the supposed policy reversal began popping up after an article by Christopher Monckton, a politician and a former policy advisor in Margaret Thatcher’s administration, submitted an article in an online newsletter of the APS Forum on Physics and Society. The article claimed that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) had overestimated the Earth’s climate sensitivity to carbon dioxide (or how much the Global average temperature will change given a certain amount of carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere). In the article, Monckton, the 3rd Viscount Monckton of Brenchley, also claims that changes in solar activity are behind the Warming trend of the past few decades, an idea that has been refuted by several climate scientists. A note in red lettering above the article states that it has not been peer-reviewed and that “its conclusions are in disagreement with the overwhelming opinion of the world scientific community. The Council of the American Physical Society disagrees with this article’s conclusions.” The i ... Source: geek-usa.mu.nu --- 2 days ago

clipped by: Kelika clipper's remarks: They finally acknowledge a problem but offer no solutions - like the regulation of gas emissions. Heaven forbid we should upset ExxonMobil! Clip Source: www.latimes.com WASHINGTON -- Climate change will pose "substantial" health threats including heat waves, hurricanes and pathogens in coming decades, the Environmental Protection Agency said Thursday. "We . . . anticipate substantial human health impacts," the document said. In the West, it found, changing weather patterns could thin the snow packs that feed rivers, affecting both hydroelectric dams and water supplies. In coastal areas, it could bring sea-level rise that eats away at dry land and storm surges that can wash land away in a flash. In Washington and other Eastern cities, the report said, a warmer climate is likely to produce more bad-air days, since heat speeds up the process by which exhaust byproducts are cooked into smog. Burnett said that this, too, was ordered by administration officials: "We were told . . . that the [document] should not establish a path forward or a framework for regulation, but should emphasize the complexity of the challenge." ...

When politicians and environmentalists debate Global Warming emissions, man-made carbon dioxide emissions is usually the top item on their list. But what if one of the biggest culprits of Global Warming was... cow farts? We're not kidding. The slow digestive system of cows makes them a major producer of the atmosphere unfriendly gas methane . According to Brittan's Telegraph.co.uk , Argentine researchers are strapping plastic tanks on the backs of cattle to better "understand the impact of the wind produced by cows on Global Warming." What have they discovered so far? Methane from Argentina's 55 million cows accounts for over 30% of the country's total greenhouse emissions. And methane is 23 times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide. As a result of these studies, scientists are already investigating alternate diets for cattle that won't make them as gassy. That's one way to help knock the wind out of Global Warming. methodshop ...
