Between 1950 to 1977, the global temperature was said to have changed by about 0.5⁰ F and many Scientists gave interviews to Magazines like ‘News Week’ painting a grim future for the world due to this trend in temperature change and foretold catastrophic climate changes. Interestingly this was about a reduction in Global temperature – a Global Cooling, which could lead to a,’ Snow Ball ‘Earth condition. Some 15 years later, the Scientists changed the scenario and began to warn of Global warming. This was due to a more pernicious reason, necessitating blaming human activities for Climate Change (See – ‘Global Domination using Money, Trade and Climate Change’). Now once again, the present studies of the effect of the slowing down of the Atlantic Meridional Oceanic Current (AMOC) is raising the possibility of Global cooling.

Remember, a statement does not become true just because many people say so. Many may have their own reasons to so state and many others may join them out of a false sense of regard or just for a ride on the band-wagon. The ‘little boy’ was right about the Emperor’s ‘New Clothes’ even as the many adults convinced themselves that what they perceived must be wrong because they were told so. Then the advantage was of social acceptance, today the advantage is the availability of money as ‘Grants’ for research.

Are there any such ‘little boys’ who have raised their voices to point out that most of the conclusions drawn from the data is unwarranted, exaggerated and misleading, and that we should look elsewhere for much of the true causes of whatever major changes we are seeing?. Yes, there are.

There are also, many scientists, and many non-scientists but otherwise rational and intelligent people, who have studied the subject, who have put themselves on record saying so. Statistical manipulation and asking of the wrong questions can result in wrong answers and conclusions, they say.

Alberto Cairo in his book – ‘ How Charts Lie’ writes that Global Warming is all but erased when the annual temperatures for the past 130 years is plotted with a base line starting at zero. The question to ask, he says is – ‘ Who makes the charts?’ and ‘What is their agenda?’

The climate is always changing; Hence, context is very important when trying to understand a statement.

1. Sub surface oceanic water down to 50 mtrs holds more heat than the air does. The overall Global temperature rise is evident, but it is not as much as is being made out be and the Global temperature readings from Satellites support this stand. Extrapolated projections of greater rise caused by human activity in future are not really justified. Interpretations of historic temperature cycles are questionable, as those from various sources do not correlate. There is reason to note the discrepancies in temperature readings at the same location on different surfaces; it seems enough allowance is not being made for the differences of readings on grass, dirt or asphalt as the usual measuring points today are mostly at well paved Airports which indicate higher temperatures. The latest interpretations of the data have indicated that the projections for the next ten years need to be drastically revised downwards and that the other predicted Global warming effects may only be seen, if at all, many decades later than earlier predicted. Again even the noted temperature rise could be due to other reasons, such as Solar activity, increased Cosmic Bombardment and perhaps even due to the density of that section of the Galaxy through which the Earth, as part of the Solar System, is now moving. The Earth gets over 100 Tons heavier every day due to infalling space dust, so outer space does affect the Earth.
2. The alleged rise in sea-levels to date could arguably be within the normal sea level fluctuations. The noted annual 3.1 mm rise in sea level is now seen as perhaps due to the 75 trillion gallons of water drained from the underground aquifers for irrigation and finally ending up in the oceans. Actually there are even arguments as to whether sea levels are really rising or falling more than the average historic millimeter or so per year, and even if the rise is really the same everywhere. The variation in various regions could also, be a reflection of varying gravity in such regions.
