But that does not mean the problem is going away The Economist OVER the past 15 years air temperatures at the Earth’s surface have been flat while greenhouse-gas emissions have continued to [...]
The Great Green Con no. 1: The hard proof that finally shows global warming forecasts that are costing you billions were WRONG all along
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2294560/The-great-green-1-The-hard-proof-finally-shows-global-warming-forecasts-costing-billions-WRONG-along.html No, the world ISN’T getting warmer (as you may have noticed). Now we reveal the official data that’s making scientists suddenly change their minds about climate doom. So will eco-funded MPs stop waging a green crusade with your money? Well… what do YOU think? The Mail on Sunday today presents irrefutable evidence that official [...]

NASA – Water Vapor Confirmed as Major Player in Climate Change
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/vapor_warming.html Water Vapor Confirmed as Major Player in Climate Change 11.17.08 The distribution of atmospheric water vapor, a significant greenhouse gas, varies across the globe. During the summer and fall of 2005, this visualization shows that most vapor collects at tropical latitudes, particularly over south Asia, where monsoon thunderstorms swept the gas some 2 miles [...]
Global warming – What role does water vapor really play?
http://knowledge.allianz.com/environment/climate_change/?626/global-warming-what-role-does-water-vapor-really-play Environment Global warming – What role does water vapor really play? Scientists say man-made CO2 causes global warming; climate skeptics insist that water vapor is responsible. Here’s why both assumptions are true. Here are the perfect ingredients for a conspiracy theory: water vapor is the most important factor influencing the greenhouse effect but doesn’t [...]

China pollution may have slowed global warming a bit
Submitted by wang.feng on Nov 7th 2012, 10:43am News›China Reuters in Oslo Sun-dimming industrial pollution in China or signs that greenhouse gases trap less heat in the atmosphere than expected may help explain an apparent slowdown in global warming since 2000, experts say. About 200 nations have set a goal of limiting warming to below 2 degrees [...]
