Many factors are involved in this warming. Surface temperature measurements likely contain a warm bias, e.g:<BR/><BR/>http://www.climatesci.org/publications/pdf/R-321.pdf<BR/><BR/>It is true that the upper ocean heat content has not increased since 2004:<BR/><BR/>http://climatesci.org/2008/06/05/comparison-of-model-and-observations-of-upper-ocean-heat-content/<BR/><BR/>and the globe has cooled since 2002, despite record rises in CO2 emissions, mainly from developed countries:<BR/><BR/>http://climaterealist.blogspot.com/2008/10/global-co2-emissions-rise-to-record.htmlPaul Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08842954342670110628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776486259300865204.post-52323062086538234302008-10-03T15:05:00.000-07:002008-10-03T15:05:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11724160711867364434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776486259300865204.post-68806774366197180142008-10-03T15:03:00.000-07:002008-10-03T15:03:00.000-07:00Paul - my extended family is involved in a small s...Paul - my extended family is involved in a small scale civil war over whether global warming is man-made or not. There are credentials on both sides. My belief is one of moderate skepticism, however a family member points to National Geographic, Scientific American as evidence that temps are going up. Can you point me to a resource that is reliable, objective and current that would communicate (in somewhat non-technical terms)facts about atmospheric and ocean temperatures decreasing over the past couple of years?

I know California wants individual states to set their own CO2 limits, rather than having a national limit - both McCain and Obama support that, or did before brains and beauty came along in the form of Sarah Palin!Paul Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08842954342670110628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776486259300865204.post-24466542629736263262008-09-16T04:43:00.000-07:002008-09-16T04:43:00.000-07:00How does this compare with the situation in Califo...How does this compare with the situation in California?<BR/>JenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776486259300865204.post-57850059145876767912008-09-15T17:23:00.000-07:002008-09-15T17:23:00.000-07:00Get out of the E.U. while you still have some free...Get out of the E.U. while you still have some freedoms and self-determination remaining.Woodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15324172839785069362noreply@blogger.com
