CO2 & the Environment: A “Not Guilty”
According to the German Maritime Institute (DMI), “The dominating role at the long lasting climate change is taken over by the solar influence. The anthropogenic greenhouse/CO2-influence on the long-lasting climate evolution will be afar overestimated. Its contribution is able to explain 20% of the long-lasting temperature behavior. The anthropogenic green-house effect physically cannot explain thereby the cooling-off periods.” Recently it became clear that ”Soot particle increase considerably the climate warming. The soot particles are responsible for almost the half of the ugly ice melt in the Arctic zone.”
This is not a new perception, because Arctic, and by some estimates soot is responsible for up to half of the ice melt.
