  • A reply on Conversation: Climate models are fundamentally flawed as they greatly overestimate the temperature increases due to carbon dioxide.

    May 5 2011: Thank you everyone for your comments to date on this a very important issue. Julie Ann I will access the articles you have referenced, likewise Greg, much appreciated.

    I can see the general concensus is that for many reasons, of which increased Carbon Dioxide levels is just one, the global climate is warming and global ecology is changing, hence the obvious visual evidence of glaciers retreating and the Northern Passage opening around the top of Russia, etc.

    Further investigation by my other sources in Australia are beginning to paint a picture of the author of this article Dr. David Evans siding with 'big business' who are wanting to avoid the Australian Government's proposed 'Carbon Tax', hence his argument for Carbon Dioxide not impacting global warming.

    Thanks again for everyone's comments.

    May 3 2011: On reading Dr. Evan's speech I was alarmed that everyone could have got this all so wrong.... that there is no global warming due to carbon dioxide.... there is no emperical evidence to support this? Why has this not been reported previously? Has anyone heard this line of argument before? What do you think?
