Hurricane Expert Rips Climate Fears Tuesday, December 8, 2009 8:10 PM By: Dr. William Gray

The following commentary is from Atmospheric Scientist and Hurricane forecasting specialist Dr. William Gray. Gray is the renowned hurricane forecaster and Emeritus Professor of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University (CSU) and originally published this artiucle on ClimateDepot.com.

Had I not devoted my entire career of more than half a century to the study and forecasting of meteorological and climate events, I would have likely been concerned over the possibility of humans causing serious global climate degradation.

There has been an unrelenting quarter century of one-sided indoctrination of the Western world by the media and by various scientists and governments concerning a coming carbon dioxide (CO2) induced global warming disaster. These warming scenarios have been orchestrated by a combination of environmentalists, vested interest scientists wanting larger federal grants and publicity, the media which profits from doomsday scenario reporting, governmental bureaucrats who want more power over our lives, and socialists who want to level-out global living standards. These many alarmist groups appear to have little concern over whether their global warming prognostications are accurate, however. And they most certainly are not. The alarmists believe they will be able to scare enough of our citizens into believing their propaganda that the public will be willing to follow their advice on future energy usage and agree to a lowering of their standard of living in the name of climate salvation.

Rising levels of CO2 are not near the threat these alarmists have portrayed them to be. There has yet to be a honest and broad scientific debate on the basic science of CO2's influence on global temperature. The global climate models predicting large amounts of global warming for a doubling of CO2 are badly flawed. They should never have been used to establish government climate policy.

The last century's global warming of about 1 degree Fahrenheit is not a consequence of human activities. This warming is primarily the result of a multi-century changes in the globe's deep ocean circulation. These ocean current changes have lead to a small and gradual increase in the globe's temperature. We are coming out of the Little Ice Age and into a generally warmer climate state. This is akin to the warmer global climate of the Medieval Period. We can do nothing but adapt to such long period natural temperature changes.

Gray is the renowned hurricane forecaster and Emeritus Professor of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University...I think he should know something about this...

I heard the weathers channels expert say months ago that global warming is an outright farce.

“Another person who doesn’t understand physics, like gravity.”

An interesting Goor-loon comment, given the fact that gravity is the one outlier in unification. We just cannot get rid of the “infinities” right now - save for some string theory approaches - which I believe introduce some infinity problems of their own.

Of course, this is all far, far above Gore’s ability - which stops at grade school math.

“Atmospheric Scientist and Hurricane forecasting specialist...” Just another guy the scammers call a skeptic. There are more skeptics like this than there are scammers, but the left can make trillions selling bullgore.

Yeah, but who are you going to believe.... Someone who actually knows what they’re talking about, or a bunch of Sociologists, “xxx Studies” majors, and other concerned citizens?

Over at our Canadian sister site, I have been documenting this con job from the beginning:

"Hadley CRU has apparently been hacked –[epic fraud?]"

Click the picture:


And yes, it is a swindle- a fraud and a cheat and a scam-- a deliberately designed construct intended to con you out of things you hold dear-- money, and prosperity, and freedom... and a few other things, as well.
