Prof. Horst Malberg: Climate Change At Most 10% Because Of CO2 – Dominated by The Sun

I examined in detail what drives the climate and I looked at all the available data, from Europe, from USA, from Japan – all data were evaluated, and naturally the global data. It clearly shows that the climate is dominated by the sun, and then on top of that by the oceans, and then a little bit by the CO2 effect. I would estimate it has a magnitude of 10%, for Co2, and not more. More than 80% of the climate change is driven by the sun. That means relative to natural climate change, the influence by CO2 is very small, and so it does not justify any action for climate protection, where wind parks are built in order to save CO2. Sure you can do it, but it won’t have any impact on our climate, at least no real impact.

Gray whales survived global warming, cooling by changing diets

Scientists now believe California gray whales survived global warming and cooling cycles over millions of years, because they are not picky eaters, or stubborn migrators. Flexibility may allow the species to win a new round of climate changes, they say.

Cap-and-trade policies losing steam - POLITICO.com Print View

Cap-and-trade policies were once heralded as the most cost-effective way to combat climate change, creating visions of a trillion-dollar global market that would clean up the air and spawn a revolution in new energy technologies.

But the concept, originally created by Republican economists, appears to be dying by a thousand cuts.

Politicians who once embraced the idea now see it as a third rail, while states and countries are either delaying or rejecting its implementation outright.

Cap and trade is facing obstacles across the country | MNN - Mother Nature Network

And in climate conscious California, Samuelsohn points out that Governor Jerry Brown is having to delay his state’s responsibilities in the Western Climate Initiative. So yes, cap and trade is dead inside the Beltway. Outside the beltway it is either dying or at best very ill.
