Global warming debunked
 

Climate change will be considered a joke in five years time, meteorologist Augie Auer told the annual meeting of Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers in Ashburton this week.

Man's contribution to the greenhouse gases was so small we couldn't change the climate if we tried, he maintained.

"We're all going to survive this. It's all going to be a joke in five years," he said.

A combination of misinterpreted and misguided science, media hype, and political spin had created the current hysteria and it was time to put a stop to it.

"It is time to attack the myth of global warming," he said.

Water vapour was responsible for 95 per cent of the greenhouse effect, an effect which was vital to keep the world warm, he explained.

"If we didn't have the greenhouse effect the planet would be at minus 18 deg C but because we do have the greenhouse effect it is plus 15 deg C, all the time."

The other greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen dioxide, and various others including CFCs, contributed only five per cent of the effect, carbon dioxide being by far the greatest contributor at 3.6 per cent.

However, carbon dioxide as a result of man's activities was only 3.2 per cent of that, hence only 0.12 per cent of the greenhouse gases in total. Human-related methane, nitrogen dioxide and CFCs etc made similarly minuscule contributions to the effect: 0.066, 0.047 and 0.046 per cent respectively.

"That ought to be the end of the argument, there and then," he said.

"We couldn't do it (change the climate) even if we wanted to because water vapour dominates."

Yet the Greens continued to use phrases such as "The planet is groaning under the weight of CO2" and Government policies were about to hit industries such as farming, he warned.

"The Greens are really going to go after you because you put out 49 per cent of the countries emissions. Does anybody ask 49 per cent of what? Does anybody know how small that number is?

"It's become a witch-hunt; a Salem witch-hunt," he said.

one guy says its not true and its embraced 1000's who say its true and they are frauds. That really amazes me, is it the human minds way of dealing with something that could be very painful.

not that it matters anyway ... the end of the world is in like 5 1/2 years anyway isn't it .. I am getting myself the sweetest set-O-wheels on a lease about 4 1/2 years from now and just going to drive it like i stole it right till the "end of time" ..

your right ,the bees keep dying global warming is going to seem like a picnic lol

So what ended the last two ice ages?

Once again even if its total bullshit, is it so bad to live cleaner and not as wasteful, get off terrorist funding oil, My goal for my next house is all solar fuck the electric company is that so bad.

List nimrod the world has been nother warmer and colder over the ages. That's natural. Doesn't mean we should be adding to it. That's just like getting a cut and not putting band-aid over it because it could still get infected anyways.

And temperaute rises like we've had over the last 100 years are not natural.

The earth is better warmer.

how the fuck does that tiny factless article debunk anything?

global warming is bullshit hype... do some research, don't listen to Al Gore. LOL

Yes... yes it is....

Funny thing.. there's this faith healer... years back he was shown to be a fraud.. had a huge following at the time... he dissappears for a number of years... now he's back hawking some healing water and I bet people are eating it up.... People tend to believe what they want to be true.

Imagine that common sense.. :thumbsup :winkwink:
