Than 1000 International Scientists Dissent Over Man-Made Global ...

this conference is evidence that there are numerous respected, established and in many
cases world-renowned scientists who have done careful research in various areas of
‗climate change‘ that sharply differ with the [UN] IPCC results,‖ Goldenberg told the New
York Times. (LINK) (LINK)
Mechanical Engineer Dan Pangburn, a licensed engineer with master in Mechanical
Engineering and author of a climate research paper, dissented in 2008. ―For most of
earth‘s history carbon dioxide level has been several times higher than the present,‖
Pangburn wrote in his paper on March 15, 2008. ―The conclusion from all this is that
carbon dioxide change does NOT cause significant climate change. Actions to control the
amount of non-condensing greenhouse gases that are added to the atmosphere are based on
the mistaken assumption that global warming was caused by human activity,‖ he added.

Physicist and engineer Dr. Jeffrey A. Glassman, a former Division Chief Scientist for
Hughes Aircraft Company, is an expert modeler of microwave and millimeter wave
propagation in the atmosphere solar radiation, thermal energy in avionics. Glassman
has conducted several studies on CO2 and climate including a July 6, 2007, paper titled,
―Solar Wind has Twice the Global Warming Effect of El Niño.‖ Glassman is blunt, writing,
―The consensus of climate mistakenly attributes solar wind warming to man-made carbon
dioxide.‖ Glassman has researched ice core data and concluded, ―CO2 concentration is a
response to the proxy temperature in the Vostok ice core data, not a cause. This does not
contradict that CO2 is a greenhouse gas, but it does contradict the conjecture that the
presence of a greenhouse gas has any destabilizing effect on global climate. Other forces
overwhelm the conjecture of a runaway greenhouse effect. The concentration of CO2 is
dynamic, controlled by the solubility pump. Global temperature is controlled first by the
primary thermodynamic loop.‖ Glassman concluded, ―The Vostok data support an entirely
new model. Atmospheric CO2 is absorbed by the oceans. Fires, volcanoes, and now man
deposit CO2 into the atmosphere, but those effects are transient. What exists in steady state
is CO2 perpetually pumped into the atmosphere by the oceans. Atmospheric CO2 is a
dynamic stream, from the warm ocean and back into the cool ocean. Public policy
represented by the Kyoto Accords and the efforts to reduce CO2 emissions should be
scrapped as wasteful, unjustified, and futile.‖ (LINK)
Chemical Engineer Bob Ashworth holds 16 U.S. patents on fuels and emission control
techniques, has written 55 technical papers on fuel technologies, and is a member of
the American Geophysical Union. Ashworth authored a 2008 technical analysis of
global warming titled “No Evidence to Support Carbon Dioxide Causing Global
Warming!” ―Nature absorbs 98.5% of the CO2 that is emitted by nature and man. As
CO2 increases in the atmosphere, nature's controlling mechanism causes plant growth to
increase via photosynthesis; CO2 is absorbed, and oxygen is liberated,‖ Ashworth wrote on
December 9, 2008. ―The lesson to the world here is, when it comes to science, never
blindly accept an explanation from a politician or scientists who have turned political for
their own private gain. Taxing carbon will have absolutely no beneficial effect on our
climate, will hurt the economies of the world, and will be harmful to the production of food
because less carbon dioxide means reduced plant growth,‖ Ashworth wrote. (LINK)
