Welcome to ClimateViews.com This site is a science oriented guide to global warming skepticism. Too much information on global warming is propagandistic in nature. Currently we are faced with hysterical predictions of global warming disaster promoted by various organizations and political figures. These predictions are not supported by sound science. The climate science establishment, consisting of government laboratories and university departments, is going along for the ride. Global warming alarmism helps this establishment by bringing money and attention. The science behind the predictions of global warming disaster depends on computer models of the earth. These computer models have been under development at various laboratories around the world for decades. Unfortunately the computer models still don’t work very well. Models from different laboratories disagree with each other by more than a factor of 2 as to the amount of global warming that would be expected from a doubling of CO2. To further complicate matters the warming of the earth in the late 20th century is much less than the models predict it should be. In the early 20th century there was a separate, large warming trend that cannot be blamed on increased CO2. This early 20th century warming is not satisfactorily explained by the models or by climate science. A crippling problem that affects the models is that the modeling of clouds is inadequate, yet clouds are extremely important players in the earth’s climate. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) brushes aside and disguises the inadequacies of the models and pushes ahead with model based predictions. Important, established scientists have developed alternative theories of global warming that are not dependent on global computer models. These alternative theories suggest that global warming from greenhouse gases like CO2 will likely be very small. A separate question is that even if the IPCC predictions of global warming were to come true, would the consequences be as bad as the global warming alarmists say? The extreme predictions such as rising sea levels, extreme weather or hurricanes are clearly greatly exaggerated. Finally, the solutions promoted by the green political forces, such as changing to wind power and solar power, are technically, economically and politically impracticable. The objective of this site is to provide concrete science information as opposed to appeals to authority or extreme rhetoric.
