Advocates of the man-made climate change hypothesis should accept that there has been 'no significant global warming since 1995' - claim UKIP

It may have come to readers' notice that CERN has produced some pretty serious data concerning the effect of solar activity on climate change. For those who do not know, CERN is one of the oldest and most prestigious research establishments devoted to the discipline of physics, it is independent and Swiss based.

Now recent pollsters in Europe and Northern America have suggested interest in this subject is on a rapid downward spiral. This is a shame because it is one of the greatest global economic dilemmas we have faced. Independent climate scientists or, indeed, scholars from every discipline - including economists - are equally split in their views. As a substitute member of the parliamentary Energy and Environment Committee, I am privy to significant information - which does not float across the desks of journalists, businessmen, professionals or any of the chattering classes. If a researcher is employed directly or even indirectly by an organisation, which has a vested interest in the outcome, I fear I am deeply sceptical.

But it is time we approached the subject anew. Especially in Europe, where the stakes are so high. Rather than reproduce graphics and statistics from CERN to make the point for or against man-made global warming, we would do well to ponder the current position. I aim to run some pretty non-controversial facts past you, not to change anyone's view per se - but to attain some common ground, which might prove a fruitful base from which to move the debate forward.

I HAVE received a number of emails from your readers on the subject of global warming and ocean temperatures.

Some even suggested I do not understand the science. So let me explain.

To simulate the influence of the Sun on the oceans, it is necessary to experiment with light whose peak wavelength is in the green sector of the visible spectrum: for it is this short-wave radiation that is capable of penetrating several feet beneath the surface and thus causing warming.

The surface tension of water does not act as a barrier against this short-wave radiation.

There is, after all, a good reason why swimming in the tropics is more comfortable than swimming in Bognor or Brighton.

Long-wave radiation from the Sun (accounting for around half of its incoming radiation) does not penetrate more than a fraction of an inch, and causes little oceanic warming.

This YouTube from January 2010 has some good points made against the stupidity of "Man Made Climate Change" by UKIP MEP Godfrey Bloom. ClimateRealists.com hope the party has a role to play in the UK election and what Godfrey and UKIP have to say about "Man Made Climate Change" is taken up by the electorate.


UK Independence Party Godfrey Bloom MEP discusses so called global warming after record cold temperatures are recorded around the world, and the data books have been cooked.

Debate: Council and Commission statements - Outcome of the Copenhagen summit on climate change

Speaker: Godfrey Bloom MEP, UKIP (Yorkshire & Lincs.), EFD group.

H/T ClimateGate.com Godfrey Bloom: When are you all going to wake up? Scam, scam, scam!

Godfrey Bloom, a Member of the European Parliament for Yorkshire and the Humber for the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP), let the EP members now how he really feels about the climate change scam. At a debate in Strasbourg yesterday on the outcome of the Copenhagen, he calls Al Gore a snake oil salesman and crook, East Anglia’s Phil Jones a crook, and in a new charge, calls the New Zealand National Climate Database “all fraudulent.”

ENERGY policy, like most other things these days, is the province of Brussels Bureaucrats and the European 'Parliament'.

We are taking decisions involving the spending of millions of tax payers' money, risking thousands of jobs and perpetuating the situation where the people of the United Kingdom pay more for their energy than any other country in the industrialised world.
