Writing about the climate crisis My slow awakening to climate change Climate sceptics answered: | From: Dwestcw@aol.com Subject: July 2006 HYDROCARBON PROCESSING Article on Climate Change Date: 4 November 2006 21:08:49 GMT+01:00 To: tim.wright@gulfpub.com Cc: editorial@hydrocarbonprocessing.com Mr. Wright, I read your subject article when the July 2006 issue was first received, and I have debated whether to respond to you about your conclusions. After considerable thought I have decided to challenge them. There is no question that we are in a warming period, but alternate warming and cooling periods have occurred over centuries of recorded history. These random variations in climate, numerous climatologists state, are primarily due to variations of thermonuclear activity of the sun. Further, no cause and effect relationship of carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere influencing atmospheric temperature has ever been verified by scientific data. Thirty years ago the "experts" were predicting that there would be another ice age for the same reason now being touted as the cause of global warming. Global warming is a political issue -- not scientific fact. You can quote certain anecdotal "evidences," but there has been no conclusive, scientific verification that atmospheric carbon dioxide content is influencing the current atmospheric temperature. It is a hypothesis and nothing more. Please stick to sound science in your future articles. The creditability of HYDROCARBON PROCESSING is diminished by your July 2006 column. Regards, J. Dale West, P.E. Longview, TX | ||||
