25 Reasons CO2 Does Not Cause Global Warming ...
https://principia-scientific.org/25-reas...l-warming/
1) Geologists know climate change unrelated to atmospheric CO2 occurred throughout Earth’s 4.5-billion-year history. Yet the IPCC (United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) has no geologists among the hundreds of appointed authors of its Fifth Assessment Report of 2014 and its Sixth Report due in 2022 (see my Technical Note 2019-10). Thus, IPCC incredibly lacks both geological input and long-term perspective.
2) IPCC’s very existence relies on public belief in manmade or ‘anthropogenic’ global warming (AGW) by CO2 emissions. Moreover, its appointed authors, mostly government and university researchers, are nearly all biased by strong vested interests in AGW, i.e. reputations (publications, lectures) & continuance of salaries & research grants. Similarly, major universities have abandoned their scientific impartiality & integrity by hosting research institutes mandated to confirm & act on AGW, e.g. Grantham Institute (Imperial College), Tyndall Centre.
3) The often-repeated ‘97% consensus among scientists that global warming is man’s fault’ (CO2 emissions) is untrue. It refers in fact to surveys of just a relatively small group of ‘climate scientists’ (a fairly new type of scientist, with strong incentives for bias; see Bullets 2 & 15), moreover only those who are ‘actively publishing’.
4) ‘Climate change denier’ & ‘global warming denier’ are despicable & dishonest terms for ‘AGW doubters’. No educated person disputes global warming, as thermometers measured 1°C rise from 1850 to 2016 (with pauses).
5) The ‘Greenhouse Hypothesis’, on which IPCC’s belief in AGW is based, is that atmospheric gases trap heat. But this old (19th century) notion is merely an idea, not a hypothesis, because it is untestable, impossible to prove in a laboratory as no experimental container can imitate Earth’s uncontained, well-mixed atmosphere.
6) IPCC computer models are so full of assumptions as to be extremely unreliable, e.g. forecast warming for 1995 to 2015 turned out to be 2-3 times too high! A likely reason is that the greenhouse idea is nonsense, as explained in recent publications by several scientists. See Bullet 19 for an equally drastic failure of IPCC models. See also https://www.wnd.com/2017/07/study-blows-...the-water/ https://principia-scientific.org/r-i-p-gr...1980-2018/
7) For about 75% of the last 550 million years, CO2 was 2 to 15 times higher than now. Evolution flourished, CO2 enabling plant photosynthesis, the basis of all life. Extinction events due to overheating by CO2 are unknown!
8) Through the last 12,000 years (our current Holocene interglacial period), CO2 was a mere 250 to 290 ppm (parts per million), near plant-starvation level, until about 1850 when industrial CO2 emissions began, making CO2 climb steeply. Nevertheless, CO2 today it is still only 412ppm, i.e. under half of one-tenth of 1% of our atmosphere.
9) Until man began adding CO2 about 1850, warming (determined from ‘proxies’ like tree rings) since the 1600AD Little Ice Age peak was accompanied by slowly rising CO2 (measured in ice cores). A simple explanation is CO2 release by ocean water, whose CO2-holding capacity decreases upon warming.
10) Supporting this sign that CO2 is a consequence, not cause, of global warming, a published study of 1980-2011 measurements showed that changes in warming rate precede changes in CO2’s growth rate, by about a year.
11) Since the 1850 start of man’s additions, CO2’s rise has generally accelerated, without reversals. In stark contrast, the post-1850 to present-day continuance of warming out of the Little Ice Age was interrupted by frequent small coolings of 1-3 years (some relatable to ‘volcanic winters’), plus two 30-year coolings (1878 to 1910, 1944 to 1976), and the famous 1998 to 2013 ‘global-warming pause’ or ‘hiatus’ (Wiki).
12) This unsteady modern warming instead resembles the unsteady rise of the sun’s magnetic output from 1901 toward a rare solar ‘Grand Maximum’ peaking in 1991, the first in 1700 years!
13) Modern warming reached a peak in February 2016. Since then, Earth has cooled for 3 years (now April 2019).
14) The ‘Svensmark Theory’ says increased solar magnetic flux warms Earth by deflecting cosmic rays, thus reducing cloudiness, allowing more of the sun’s warmth to heat the land and ocean instead of being reflected. In support, a NASA study of satellite data spanning 32 years (1979-2011) showed decreasing cloud cover.
15) Vociferous IPCC-involved climate scientist Dr Stefan Rahmstorf (Wiki) of the German government’s Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, recipient of a US$1 million personal research grant from a private foundation, wrongly said in his 2008 article ‘Anthropogenic Climate Change’: “there is no viable alternative … [to CO2 as driver of modern warming from 1940 to 2005 because] … different authors agree that solar activity did not significantly increase” during that period. Yet nine years earlier, in 1999, famous physicist Dr Michael Lockwood (Wiki; FRS) wrote, in ‘A Doubling of the Sun’s Coronal Magnetic Field During the Past 100 Years’, published in prestigious Nature journal: “the total magnetic flux leaving the Sun has risen by a factor of 1.4 since 1964” and 2.3 since 1901 !! See for yourselves the striking overall 1964-91 climb in solar-magnetic output, recorded by the strong overall fall in detected neutrons (proportional to cosmic rays), in graph 3 here … https://cosmicrays.oulu.fi
16) Lockwood showed averaged solar magnetic flux increased 230% from 1901 to 1995, i.e. more than doubled ! The final peak value was 5 times the starting minimum value ! Bullets 17 & 18 likewise back Svensmark’s theory…
17) … after the previous solar Grand Maximum (4th century, long before industrial CO2), in the next decades Earth warmed to near or above today’s temperature. Then ‘sawtooth’ cooling proceeded, through the Dark Ages and ‘Medieval Warm Period’, into the Little Ice Age, paralleling a 1,000-year unsteady solar decline; and …
18) … before that, between 8000 and 2000BC, Earth was occasionally warmer than today for hundreds if not thousands of years, as shown by tree rings, shrunken glaciers, etc.. Then unsteady cooling from 3000BC into the Little Ice Age paralleled unsteady solar decline following the Holocene’s ‘super-Grand’ Maximum near 3000BC.
19) This 4,500-year cooling contradicts IPCC computer models that instead predict warming by the simultaneous (slow) rise in CO2. This is the ‘The Holocene Temperature Conundrum’ of Liu et al. (2014). See also Bullet 6.
20) Embarrassingly for AGW promoters, the 8000-2000BC warm interval (Bullet 18) was already, ironically, named the ‘Holocene ClimaticOptimum’, before today’s CO2/AGW hysteria began. The warmth probably benefitted human social development. Indeed, it was cold episodes, bringing drought and famine, that ended civilisations.
21) Cross-correlating post-1880 graphs of solar-magnetic flux versus Earth’s temperature suggests a 25-year time-lag, such that the 2016 peak temperature corresponds to the 1991 solar peak. The lag is probably due to the ocean’s high thermal inertia due to its enormous volume and high heat capacity, hence slow response to warming.
22) IPCC, ignoring the possibility of such a time-lag, claims that simultaneous global warming (until 2016) and solar weakening (since 1991) must mean that warming is driven by CO2!
23) The last interglacial period about 100,000 years ago was warmer than our Holocene interglacial. Humans and polar bears survived! CO2 was then about 275ppm, i.e. lower than now (Bullet 8).
24) The simultaneous rise of temperature & CO2 is a ‘spurious correlation’. Warming’s real cause was a solar build-up to a rare Grand Maximum, which man’s industrialisation accompanied by chance. So, IPCC demonising CO2 as a ‘pollutant’ is a colossal blunder, costing trillions of dollars in needless & ineffectual efforts to reduce it.
25) Global cooling now in progress since February 2016 can be predicted to last at least 28 years (i.e. to 2044), matching the sun’s 28-year decline from 1991 to today, and allowing for the 25-year time-lag (Bullet 21).

Years before anybody had heard of Swedish school girl Greta Thunberg and her mission for climate action, Crown Prince Charles with the Bank of England and City of London finance were already redirecting pension plans and mutual funds towards green projects.
A key player in linking world financial institutions with the Green Agenda is outgoing Bank of England governor Mark Carney. In December 2015, the Bank for International Settlements’ Financial Stability Board (FSB), chaired by Carney, created the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD), to advise “ investors, lenders and insurance about climate related risks”.
In 2016, the TCFD with the City of London Corporation and UK Government initiated the Green Finance Initiative to channel trillions of dollars to “green investments”. The TCFD is chaired by multibillionaire former Mayor of New York Michael Bloomberg, it includes people from BlackRock; JP MorganChase; Barclays Bank; HSBC; Swiss Re; China’s ICBC bank; Tata Steel, ENI oil, Dow Chemical; mining giant BHP Billington; David Blood of Al Gore’s Generation Investment LLC (formerly of Goldman Sachs).
Of course they needed a representative kid to promote their agenda…
Greta Thunberg is part of the network tied to the organisation of Al Gore’s partner, David Blood. Greta Thunberg and her 17-year-old US climate friend Jamie Margolin were both listed as “special youth advisor and trustee” of the Swedish We Don’t Have Time NGO, founded in late 2017 by Ingmar Rentzhog.
Rentzhog is a member of both Al Gore’s Climate Reality Organization Leaders and the European Climate Policy Task Force. Rentzhog made his money as the founder of investment company Laika Consulting and his chief operating officer, David Olsson, worked at one of Sweden's biggest property funds Svenska Bostadsfonden, whose board Rentzhog joined in June 2017.
In February 2019, in a blatant publicity stunt, after meeting Greta, EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker proposed that between 2021 and 2027, “ every fourth euro spent within the EU budget go toward action to mitigate climate change”.
This decision had nothing to do with Greta’s plea; it was made months earlier on 26 September 2018 at the One Planet Summit, along with the World Bank, Bloomberg Foundations, the World Economic Forum and others.
On 17 October 2018, weeks after the previous decision was made, Juncker announced that Breakthrough Energy will have preferential access to funding…
Members of Breakthrough Energy include Virgin Air’s Richard Branson (the good friend of Ghislaine Maxwell and NXIVM); Bill Gates; David Rubenstein (founder of the Bush-linked Carlyle); and George Soros: https://www.globalresearch.ca/climate-mo...il/5690209
( http://archive.is/5ReVu)
In July 2019, outgoing UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Philip Hammond wrote that the TCFD “ has been endorsed by institutions representing $118 trillion of assets globally”.
Following are some of its supporters…
ABN Amro bank; ABP; Accenture; AEGON NV; Allianz Global Investors; American Bar Association; Anglo American; Autoriteit Financiele Markten (Netherlands); AXA Group;
Bank of America; Bank of England – PRA; Barclays; Barrick Gold Corporation; BASF; Belgian Ministery of Finance; BlackRock; BNP Paribas;
