Una nova crida científica contra l'aplicació del Protocol de Kyoto

"La catàstrofe climàtica s'ha acabat: tot allò que no li han dit sobre la ciència del canvi climàtic". Amb aquest títol, un grup d'investigadors de la Universitat canadenca de Calgary en col·laboració amb els Friends of Science Society, han elaborat un documental per explicar les raons per les quals demanen al govern del Canadà que no apliqui el Protocol de Kyoto (vía Barcepundit).

Carleton University Professor Tim Patterson (Paleoclimatologist) explains the crucial importance of properly evaluating the merit of Canada's climate change plans: “It is no exaggeration to say that in the eight years since the Kyoto Protocol was introduced there has been a revolution in climate science. If, back in the mid-nineties, we knew what we know today about climate, Kyoto would not exist because we would have concluded it was not necessary.”

Contrary to claims that the science of climate change has been settled, the causes of the past century’s modest warming is highly contested in the climate science community. The climate experts presenting in the video demonstrate that science is quickly diverging away from the hypothesis that the human release of greenhouse gases, specifically carbon dioxide, is having a significant impact on global climate. “There is absolutely no convincing scientific evidence that human-produced greenhouse gases are driving global climate change”, stated climatologist, Dr. Tim Ball. He added that the Canadian government’s plan to designate carbon dioxide as a “toxic” under CEPA is irresponsible and without scientific merit. “Carbon dioxide is a staff of life, plain and simple. It makes up less than 4% of greenhouse gases and it is not a toxic.”
