Coleman says man-made climate change advocates would lose landmark court case

A landmark court case that would destroy the so-called "consensus" behind man-made global warming could be in the works after Weather Channel founder John Coleman expressed his intention to sue Al Gore for fraud.

Companies that sell "carbon credits" on the basis that they offset carbon emissions could also be in the firing line as Coleman stated his conviction that man-made advocates would lose the case if a fair debate, something that the establishment is loathe to allow, was allowed to take place.

"Since we can't get a debate, I thought perhaps if we had a legal challenge and went into a court of law, where it was our scientists and their scientists, and all the legal proceedings with the discovery and all their documents from both sides and scientific testimony from both sides, we could finally get a good solid debate on the issue," Coleman said. "I'm confident that the advocates of 'no significant effect from carbon dioxide' would win the case."

Coleman said that any degree of warming that has taken place over the last 25 years is beginning to be offset by a recent cooling trend. China, the largest emitter of carbon dioxide, has just experienced its coldest winter for 100 years.

"I think if we continue the cooling trend a couple of more years, the general public will at last begin to realize that they've been scammed on this global-warming thing," said Coleman.

Coleman questioned whether carbon dioxide caused temperature increase, a point borne out by ice core samples that show increases in carbon dioxide in the environment are a result and not a cause of higher temperatures, lagging behind by as much as 800 years.

"Does carbon dioxide cause a warming of the atmosphere? The proponents of global warming pin their whole piece on that," he said.

"The compound carbon dioxide makes up only 38 out of every 100,000 particles in the atmosphere."

"That's about twice as what there were in the atmosphere in the time we started burning fossil fuels, so it's gone up, but it's still a tiny compound," Coleman said. "So how can that tiny trace compound have such a significant effect on temperature?

"My position is it can't," he continued. "It doesn't, and the whole case for global warming is based on a fallacy."

Coleman's call for a court case to take on the global warming orthodox comes in the same week that the Carnegie Institute urged the need to reduce carbon emissions to zero within decades, a move that would devastate the third world and likely end human civilization as we know it, returning man back to the stone age.

Driving home in my car this afternoon I was listening on Radio National to a scientist who has just been attending a climate conference in New York and she said all the evidence from the NASA aqua - satelite presented at the conference stated that the warmest temperaures had peaked in 1998 and the earth has been cooling since. She said also the conference concluded that carbon dioxide had no effect on warming and the earth was compensating for the increased levels of CO2. She said changes that mankind made in CO2 emmissions would have no effect on warming we would just be poorer. She said even the head of IPCC admitted that warming has stopped. When the radio man said this is not the information in the media she said it is time it was. She concluded by saying we are in a warm interglacial period that may last thousands of years more before the next ice-age.

What time was the interview broadcast? I would love to catch a replay or track it down on their website.

Absolutely no-one I know apart from my mother will question the GW dogma, so a bit more evidence about the lack of evidence would be good to have up my sleeve so to speak. She is old enough to remember massive heatwaves and droughts years ago as well as the dire predictions of global cooling back in the seventies, so is a bit distrustful of the orthodoxy now.

But then, most people I know believe that 19 arabs with box cutters wrought all that destruction and that vaccinations and fluoride are good for us

Yes its on the www.abc.com.au site , click on Radio National and on the program Counterpoint and the transcript of the interview of this scientist about the conference is under the heading Monday 17th , Climate Change
My computer skills arn't too good , if I could I would move it here!

Thanks for those links - listened to the interview, found it very interesting.

Was impressed to hear that the first part of the show was an interview with Gary Taube, writer of "The Diet Delusion" - what he said about the high carb low fat diet we are all ordered to eat is so true - I have been quoting him for a while on various discussion boards for some time now, and am still surprised when people tell me how wrong I am.

Good to see both of these topics on the agenda - just a shame to see that the show's hosts thought the information was so revolutionary and controversial.
