10 Talkbacks for this article
1. Climate and sunspots
Green Baron ,   Bethesda, MD USA   (10.17.12)
Also bear in mind that astronomers now forecast several years of a very quiet sun with few or even no sunspots. If these forecasts are borne out, the weather and perhaps climate over the next several years, and maybe longer, could exhibit a cooling trend.
2. What's the word for "refund" in Koppengagen?
Miron ,   USA   (10.17.12)
3. Global Warming
Jan Kay ,   Leeds, UK   (10.17.12)
The Met Office has refuted this inaccurate misrepresentation of the statistics, printed mischievously by a British newspaper. There has been a normal 15 year cycle of ups and downs, but all the figures are higher than the last cycle - hence global warming has not stalled at all.
4. @3 can you please say it louder? ( and than apologies fast )
Miron ,   USA   (10.18.12)
5. Global worming lies...
Eli Erev ,   Queen Creek, AZ   (10.18.12)
It's all about power and money. Al Gore made his hundreds of Millions of Dollars by lying to the people. the United Nations got Billions of Dollars with the B S global worming....it's time to face the truth and reject any more wasted founds to any group that clam global worming.
6. Wake up people!!!
Belinda ,   Texas, USA   (10.19.12)
Common sense is a dying attribute!! To figure out that global warming is the lie of the century is NOT rocket science! Wake up, stop letting these greedy animals make you look like gullible idiots!
7. Humans = shortsight
Bob ,   USA   (10.19.12)
Some wit said climate is what you expect but weather is what you GET. More importantly, humans are short-lived animals with an even shorter attention span and climate is long long long. Did you know there is strong evidence that it was warmer than today when the vikings sailed the seas and when the Romans controlled the MED ? 200 years ago we used candles for light. We know so little of our planets past and 'scientists' claim to know so much. Think about it.
8. #2:refundering.Watch the great global warming swindle on Utb
tom ,   tel aviv   (10.20.12)
9. the polar ice caps would beg to differ
Scott ,   Ramat Gan, Israel   (10.21.12)
They've been there for thousands of years & are just now disappearing. Coincidence? Most scientists don't think so.
10. Not nice to rush to unscientific consclusions.
