After 16 years without warming, future climate talks must focus on preparation for, and adaption to, climate change, not vainly trying to stop it. Ottawa, Canada, December 9, 2012: “Governments must re-examine climate change science before considering further, more concrete commitments in the United Nations negotiating process,” said Tom Harris, executive director of the International Climate Science Coalition (ICSC), which is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. “In their November 29th open letter to the U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, scientists from across the globe explained that the science relied upon by the U.N. is seriously flawed. Mr. Ban must no longer ignore such highly qualified advice.” Among the statements supported by the now 134 scientist endorsers to the open letter were: “there has been no statistically significant global warming for almost 16 years. During this period…carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations rose by nearly 9%...Global warming that has not occurred cannot have caused the extreme weather of the past few years.” “Whether, when and how atmospheric warming will resume is unknown. The science is unclear.” “The hypothesis that our emissions of CO2 have caused, or will cause, dangerous warming is not supported by the evidence.

...so the people I’m told are never wrong need to cover up the fact that their predictions were incorrect?
What? Global warming isn’t real?
IT MUST BE!!!!
Hundreds, if not thousands, of freeloading researchers depend on never-ending government grants to fund their ongoing research in global warming.
Global warming HAS TO BE!!
The posts so far show exhibit a troubling lack of knowledge about who these folks, especially Lord Monckton, are.
They’re the good guys.
It it did not exist, then they would have had to invent it.
And invent it they did. By stringing together irrelevancies and interspersing myths, a whole universe of “factual” information was built up.
But true scientific inquiry is not mocked. There is no such thing as “settled science”, as there is far more out there that is unknown than is known, even yet, using all the finely-tuned instrumentation and collating the collected information with the largest data-banks ever devised by mankind. Still, all this huge collection of readings has to be put into some kind of realistic format that in at least some aspects, reflects the wider world, and is reproducible by independent effort elsewhere.
The Magi still do not have all the curliques combed out of their thinking. But to deliberately introduce MORE curliques, is not conducive to correction of the problem.
“...so the people I’m told are never wrong need to cover up the fact that their predictions were incorrect?”
Wasn’t the “hide the trend” e-mail hacked and publicized all about this fact that shot the whole man-made-global-warming-we-gotta-tax-the-crap-outa-everybody scheme down?
No Warming for past 16 years?
That which has been seen cannot be unseen. hee hee hee
