Global warming may become global cooling this century | A leading analyst has claimed that global warming is set to become global cooling this century, with temperatures falling by about 0.5 degree Celsius by the year 2050. According to a report in Daily Express, the analyst in question is Professor Michael Beenstock from The Hebrew University
of Jerusalem, who said that theories of climate change are wrong. He warned that
climatologists have misused statistics, leading them to the mistaken conclusion
global warming is evidence of the greenhouse effect. He told London's Cass Business
School that the link between rising greenhouse gas emissions and rising temperatures
is "spurious", adding, "The greenhouse effect is an illusion." Professor Beenstock
said that just because greenhouse gases and temperatures have risen together does
not mean they are linked. He claims that the real cause of rising temperatures
is the sun, which he says is at its hottest for over 1,000 years, but is "beginning
to stabilize". "If the sun's heat continues to remain stable, and if carbon emissions
continue to grow with the rate of growth of the world economy, global temperatures
will fall by about 0.5C by 2050," Professor Beenstock said. Citing predictions
by climatologists in the 1970s of a new Ice Age, Professor Beenstock said, "I
predict that climatologists will look equally foolish in the years to come. Indeed,
it may be already happening." |
