Former Reuters Reporter: I Was Wrong to Blame CO2 for Rising Temperatures
Newsbusters ^ | February 25, 2023 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 02/26/2023 8:30:56 AM PST by PJ-Comix

Neil Winton worked at Reuters for 32 years, including as their Science and Technology correspondent. Therefore when he claims that he was wrong about carbon dioxide being the cause of rising worldwide temperatures, he can't be easily discounted. Winton made this admission in Thursday's edition of The Daily Sceptic, "When I Covered Climate Change for Reuters I Thought CO2 Was Certainly to Blame for Rising Temperatures. I Was Wrong."

The Climate Cult has nothing at all to do with science. It is just another non-science Marxist orthodoxy like Lysenkoism.

They will always find some human behavior that causes “Climate Change”, this scam will continue in perpertuity, until they have complete control over everything.

Martin Durkin who made the documentary ‘The Great Global Warming Swindle’ is supposed to have a sequel coming out.

I’ve posted about this documentary before here on FR. It’s excellent. Though it was out in 2007 the points it makes about climate..whatever, are proof of what a fraud it was as well as the money and special interests that are behind it. Any update to this documentary can only be worse today.

If someone has any links to the sequel let me know please.

The other problem for “Warmists” is the Model they use to predict temperature changes. It predicted an average temperature that would be reached on the planet when CO2 reached a level of 400ppm in the atmosphere.

Then several years ago CO2 reached that magic 400ppm level. But you didn’t hear much about it because the average temperature was 6 degrees BELOW what the Model predicted. 6 degrees is a massive error.

Which means the Model is useless, no good, meaningless.

There’s your “settled science” right there.

My last count there were 17 “models”, none replicating past measurements.

So we are NOT all going to die from climate 'discombobulation' then?

We MAY die of global communism/stupidity -
but not global climate warming / cooling / endless boring sunny days.

That is cool.
(See what I did there? Ha.)

When you find a link, please let me know. I'd love to have it, too.

Thanks!

“When I Covered Climate Change for Reuters I Thought CO2 Was Certainly to Blame for Rising Temperatures. I Was Wrong.”

Sorry, doesn’t work that way - he knew the whole time, but wasn’t willing to risk his gig, especially since the his replacement would have spouted the same.

CO2 doesn’t cause global warming. Global warming causes increases in atmospheric CO2.

And Global warming is caused by the sun.
