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

said. ―In reality, rarely is there ever a last and final word in studies of complex systems
such as earth‘s environment. Rather, science is a dynamic process based on the scientific
method in which researchers test hypotheses leading to new discoveries, but also reexamine
earlier theories and try to improve, build upon, or extend them,‖ he concluded. (LINK)
Indian Geologist Dr. Ritesh Arya, who specializes in hydrogeology and groundwater
resources in the Himalayas, has authored several research papers and was invited by
the Royal Geographical Society in 2005 to discuss climate change. Ayra, who has been
the recipient of the Great Indian Achievers Award 2004 and the Bharat Excellence
Award 2003, rejected man-made climate fears in 2008. ―There is urgent need to put the
phenomenon, which had not been triggered off suddenly, in the right perspective as today
almost every human activity right from vehicular emissions to use of polythene is being
linked to global warming which was a much larger event which started as soon as the Ice
Age ended. The fact was that the ‗biotic‘ agents (man and other living organisms) had a
very small role compared to the ‗abiotic‘ (geological, geomorphologic, climatologic,
planetary and hydrological) events like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis,
movement of glaciers and landslides,‖ Arya told The Tribune on February 18, 2008.
According to the article, Arya termed ―the hype and panic over ‗global warming‘ as
‗unnecessary.‖ ―'There is a hype of global warming created by western mass media and
there is a need to redefine the whole concept,‖ Arya also said on June 14, 2008. He also has
been recognized by the Guinness World Records for his ―achievement in finding
groundwater in the Chushul area at an altitude of more than 14,000 ft.‖ (LINK) (LINK)

Meteorologist John Takeuchi did an interview with the Vacaville, CA Reporter and
rejected claims that current climate is unusual in 2008. ―The atmosphere has periodic
warming and cooling cycles. The sun is the primary source of energy impacting the earth's
surface. That energy heats the land and the seas, which then warm the air above them.
Water vapor and other gases in the atmosphere also affect temperature,‖ Takeuchi wrote on
July 10, 2008. ―Global warming proponents claim that human activity is increasing CO2 in
the atmosphere - that's true - and that the increased CO2 is causing air temperature to rise.
Studies, however, point elsewhere. When long-term plots of global temperature and CO2
content are overlaid, CO2 lags temperature. There must be another culprit,‖ Takeuchi
explained. ―Oceans are the main repository for CO2. They release CO2 as their temperature
rises - just like your beer. This strongly suggests that warming oceans - heated by the sun -
are a major contributor to CO2 in the atmosphere,‖ he added. ―Politicians have come to see
global warming as a way to raise revenue by rationing CO2 production with schemes such
as the ‗cap and trade‘ legislation now in Congress. The taxes assessed for producing CO2
could be huge. But global warming as proclaimed by Al Gore and Co., is a hoax,‖ he
added. (LINK)
Dr. Kevin Warwick is an award-winning Professor of Cybernetics at the University of
Reading, England, where he carries out research in artificial intelligence, control,
robotics and biomedical engineering. Warwick, whose research interests include
robotics and Cybernetics in particular apart from areas like artificial intelligence,
control, and biomedical engineering, has won many awards including The Future of
Health technology Award from MIT. Warwick also rejected global warming theory in
2008. ―I am afraid that I do not hold with the theory of ‗global warming‘ – there will
