All that can be said with any degree of certainty is that the debate about climate change is far from over. Indeed it could be said that the debate is intensifying. On one side is the camp that is convinced that the climate is likely to warm dramatically in the future. This camp is in little doubt about what is causing this unprecedented warming. Man is the cause and it is only Man that can bring about the solution. (ie reduce excessive greenhouse gas emissions)
On the other side are those who remain in denial and justify their outrageous claims to do nothing on outright red herrings. One day it is the cycle city of sunspot activity, the next day it is something else. (eg a carbon tax will cost too much, or ‘we’ simply can’t afford it)
For those who have the most to loose, it is normal to involve lobbyists to back up their claims. These lobbyists like to quote scientists or ‘reputable people’ to justify their biases. The latest idea is to utilise historical temperature records to suggest if anything, ‘the planet should be cooling’. These same historic records indicate that the planet has experienced average temperature fluctuations of greater than 4c in the past at regular intervals. In this context, whatever is likely to happen in the future could be seen as 100% normal and without any possible influence from Man.
