and innocent citizens for global warming in order to generate funding and to gain<br />

attention. If this is what ‗science‘ has become today, I, as a scientist, am ashamed,‖<br />

Gilbert wrote. ―I was immediately amazed at the paltry level of scientific competence that<br />

I found, especially in the basic areas of heat and mass transfer,‖ he added. The abstract to<br />

his 2010 study reads in part: ―The theoretical and empirical thermodynamics discussed in<br />

this paper explain the physics behind the observed reduction in relative humidity in the<br />

upper troposphere as surface temperature and surface humidity increase. This contradicts<br />

the physics embedded in current GCM models commonly used by the climate science<br />

community.‖ (LINK) (LINK) [Updated December 9, 2010]<br />

In August 2009, a coalition of German scientists dissented from man-made global<br />

warming claims. 'Consensus' Takes Another Hit! More than 60 German <strong>Scientists</strong><br />

<strong>Dissent</strong> <strong>Over</strong> <strong>Global</strong> Warming Claims! Call Climate Fears 'Pseudo 'Religion'; Urge<br />

Chancellor to 'reconsider' views The German scientists declared that a "growing body of<br />

evidence shows anthropogenic CO2 plays no measurable role." More than 60<br />

prominent German scientists have publicly declared their dissent from man-made global<br />

warming fears in an Open Letter to German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The more than<br />

60 signers of the letter include several United Nations IPCC scientists. The scientists<br />

declared that global warming has become a ―pseudo religion‖ and they noted that rising<br />

CO2 has ―had no measurable effect‖ on temperatures. The German scientists, also wrote<br />

that the ―UN IPCC has lost its scientific credibility.‖ The July 26, 2009 German scientist<br />

letter urged Chancellor Merkel to ―strongly reconsider‖ her position on global warming<br />

and requested a ―convening of an impartial panel‖ that is ―free of ideology‖ to counter<br />

the UN IPCC and review the latest climate science developments.<br />

The scientists, from many disciplines, including physicists, meteorology, chemistry, and<br />

geology, explain that ―humans have had no measurable effect on global warming through<br />

CO2 emissions. Instead the temperature fluctuations have been within normal ranges and<br />

are due to natural cycles.‖<br />

―More importantly, there's a growing body of evidence showing anthropogenic CO2<br />

plays no measurable role,‖ the scientists wrote. ―Indeed CO2's capability to absorb<br />

radiation is almost exhausted by today's atmospheric concentrations. If CO2 did indeed<br />

have an effect and all fossil fuels were burned, then additional warming over the long<br />

term would in fact remain limited to only a few tenths of a degree,‖ they added.<br />

―The IPCC had to have been aware of this fact, but completely ignored it during its<br />

studies of 160 years of temperature measurements and 150 years of determined CO2<br />

levels. As a result the IPCC has lost its scientific credibility,‖ the scientists wrote.<br />

―Indeed the atmosphere has not warmed since 1998 – more than 10 years, and the global<br />

temperature has even dropped significantly since 2003. Not one of the many extremely<br />

expensive climate models predicted this. According to the IPCC, it was supposed to have<br />

gotten steadily warmer, but just the opposite has occurred,‖ the scientists wrote.<br />
