Who said the science was settled?
Cosmic rays and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), both already implicated in depleting the Earth’s ozone layer, are also responsible for changes in the global climate, a University of Waterloo scientist reports in a new peer-reviewed paper. In his paper, Qing-Bin Lu, a professor of physics and astronomy, shows how CFCs – compounds once widely used as refrigerants – and cosmic rays – energy particles originating in outer space – are mostly to blame for climate change, rather than carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. His paper, derived from observations of satellite, ground-based and balloon measurements as well as an innovative use of an established mechanism, was published online in the prestigious journal Physics Reports. ”My findings do not agree with the climate models that conventionally thought that greenhouse gases, mainly CO2, are the major culprits for the global warming seen in the late 20th century,” Lu said. “Instead, the observed data show that CFCs conspiring with cosmic rays most likely caused both the Antarctic ozone hole and global warming….” In his research, Lu discovers that while there was global warming from 1950 to 2000, there has been global cooling since 2002. The cooling trend will continue for the next 50 years, according to his new research observations.
Australian angle: Lu received his PhD in Physics from the University of Newcastle. (Thanks to reader Thumbnail.) UPDATE If Lu is right, the US can expect more winters like this one, with more than half the country now covered in snow: UPDATE 2 Another reminder that warming would be good, since it’s cold that is the bigger killer:

I wonder what all those warmists are going to say when the people of poorer nation start to die of starvation due to the lack of yield from crops because of cooling?
I have been onto this scam for over one and a half years. I went and saw Gore's lecture in th UK at the Glasgow Hilton hotel. I left thinking hmmmm he has done his homework, then I went and did mine. This man should be placed in front of a Judge and Jury.
The change of alarmism wording is in itselt alarming. Global warming to climate change, in the UK they are even now calling it enviromental change, wtf! Here's my two bobs worth, instead of us looking for political change let's look for people change or elitite change or working class change.
Enough of the bullshit, it is time to take action.
