Еще к вопросу о глобальном потеплении

Researchers at the Institute for Astronomy in Zurich are reporting that solar sunspot activity is at a 1000-year peak. Records of sunspots have been kept since 1610. The period between 1645 and 1715 (known as the Maunder Minimum) was a period of very few sunspots. Researchers extended the record by measuring isotopes of beryllium (created by cosmic rays) in Greenland ice cores. Based on both observations and ice core records, we are now at a sunspot peak exceeding solar activity for any time in the past thousand years.

А из комментов - просто прямой превед таки_нету и его рассуждениям про "значительное большинство климатологов" и представителей МИТ, которые являются идейно крепкими сторонниками глобального потепления:

No Such Thing As a 'Perfect' Temperature - Leadership and the Environment - MSNBC.com:

April 16, 2007 issue - Judging from the media in recent months, the debate over global warming is now over. There has been a net warming of the earth over the last century and a half, and our greenhouse gas emissions are contributing at some level. Both of these statements are almost certainly true. What of it? Recently many people have said that the earth is facing a crisis requiring urgent action. This statement has nothing to do with science. There is no compelling evidence that the warming trend we've seen will amount to anything close to catastrophe. What most commentators—and many scientists—seem to miss is that the only thing we can say with certainly about climate is that it changes.

Немного в сторону. Если кто-то сомневается в репутации г-на Слоана, то как вот этот - "His research has always been funded exclusively by the U.S. government. He receives no funding from any energy companies" может кого либо разубедить

Ну, если говорить именно о г-не Слоане (именем которого названа профессорская позиция г=на Линдзена), то его бизнес был funded не только и не столько правительством :))))

Оплошал. Это же надо так проколоться ((

Линдзен всегда был скептиком, и настоящие прихожание Церкви Глобального Потепление считают его ебанатом.
