Crazy Conspiracy of the Day : CO2 emissions have absolutely nothing to do with Global Warming

Is this finally proof we're NOT causing global warming? The whole of the Earth heated up in medieval times without human CO2 emissions, says new study
Evidence was found in a rare mineral that records global temperatures
Warming was global and NOT limited to Europe
Throws doubt on orthodoxies around 'global warming'

Current theories of the causes and impact of global warming have been thrown into question by a new study which shows that during medieval times the whole of the planet heated up.
It then cooled down naturally and there was even a 'mini ice age'.
A team of scientists led by geochemist Zunli Lu from Syracuse University in New York state, has found that contrary to the ‘consensus’, the ‘Medieval Warm Period’ approximately 500 to 1,000 years ago wasn’t just confined to Europe.
In fact, it extended all the way down to Antarctica – which means that the Earth has already experience global warming without the aid of human CO2 emissions.

Cold facts: Antarctica actually warmed up during medieval times, contrary to what climate scientists believe
At present the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) argues that the Medieval Warm Period was confined to Europe – therefore that the warming we’re experiencing now is a man-made phenomenon.


However, Professor Lu has shown that this isn’t true – and the evidence lies with a rare mineral called ikaite, which forms in cold waters.
‘Ikaite is an icy version of limestone,’ said Lu. ‘The crystals are only stable under cold conditions and actually melt at room temperature.’
It turns out the water that holds the crystal structure together - called the hydration water - traps information about temperatures present when the crystals formed.
This finding by Lu's research team establishes, for the first time, ikaite as a reliable way to study past climate conditions.

Evidence that the Earth heated up over a 1,000 years ago was found in a rare mineral called ikaite
The scientists studied ikaite crystals from sediment cores drilled off the coast of Antarctica. The sediment layers were deposited over 2,000 years.

The scientists were particularly interested in crystals found in layers deposited during the ‘Little Ice Age,’ approximately 300 to 500 years ago, and during the Medieval Warm Period before it.
Both climate events have been documented in Northern Europe, but studies have been inconclusive as to whether the conditions in Northern Europe extended to Antarctica.
Lu’s team found that in fact, they did.

They were able to deduce this by studying the amount of heavy oxygen isotopes found in the crystals.
During cool periods there are lots, during warm periods there aren’t.
‘We showed that the Northern European climate events influenced climate conditions in Antarctica,’ Lu says. ‘More importantly, we are extremely happy to figure out how to get a climate signal out of this peculiar mineral. A new proxy is always welcome when studying past climate changes.’

The research was recently published online in the journal Earth And Planetary Science Letters and will appear in print on April 1.

And then we have these control freaks pushing for massive population reduction through sterilants in vaccines and gmo garbage food reducing fertility, all because of our "carbon footprint" and basically they are saying the human race is a cancer to the world, and their solution massive population reduction through any means necessary.

I have never believed that we are to blame for global warming.

that's good freak, it is good to have an open mind

unlike the person who negged me for posting a truthful article with evidence to back it up. Aww someone can't hold an intellectual conversation? But got mad at the truth? aww

it's a sad day when i miss the espn boards, talking anything of any substance around here is just a no go. Not worth the frustration. I think i'll leave this section for war propagandists and muslim haters. That seems to be the consensus. Mention a word of how war is a failure of policy or how the establishment in this country is broken and you get trolled all day because you have an opinion that is different and 'controversial' so clearly i must be crazy.

1. The levels of climate change in the MWP(medieval warming period) vs what is observed today are in no way comparable or as utterly widespread. There is worldwide evidence, and has been since 2009 popularly, when I became aware of it, but it does not in any way approximate the warming we've seen since the modern population boom started. The MWP has been well known, and has been theorized as a result of solar heating, but ended with the start of what was known as The Little Iceage which was likely result of decreasing human population reducing cleared agricultural lands significantly across much of America and Europe. Lands became reforested, CO2 uptake caused a reduction in greenhouse gasses, and the planet cooled. The reduction in human population ended the last warming period. Why wouldn't in end this one?

2. Logically, the existence of other climate change without CO2 emissions does not eliminate that from being a factor in this period of climate change. What a fucking terrible, bias slant. The Daily Mail is equivalent to Fox News in its conservative yarn-spinning. This argument is the same as saying "Another murder was committed without the defendants gun, so clearly, this man is not the killer". Oggy, come on. You're better than to fall for this!

3. If you read into climatology, you'll see events such as forest clearing, volcanoes and impacts create lasting effects. If you compare the level of emissions over the last 100 years to these isolated events you see similarities. Humans have been effecting world wide climate change for at least 50,000. The aborigines burnt a large chunk of the Australian continent for farming and that directly correlates with warming as well.

4. I want to stress again the Daily Mail is not a trust worthy source for climate information. They were a steady backer of the Iraqi Invasion and are a mouthpiece for the British Oil Consortium. They're always running adds trying to cast doubt on the very real causes of global warming.

It is positively stupid to think we are not a cause of global warming, and only whack job Christians are usually the ones who believe this usually.


Oggy, THIS is propaganda from the OIL and fuel industries who want to convince you their oiligarchy isn't choking this planet to death. Do not be fooled.

Oggy there isn't a single doubting independent scientific body. The doubts about human influence in global warming are about as bad and about from the same elements of society that want to ban gay marriage, invade the middle east and deny evolution.

90% of scientists agree. This isn't even a debate Oggy. Not every consensus is a conspiracy. The conspiracy lies with bullshit Oil company bought papers like the daily mail. Scumbags.

This guy disagrees

awww...someone doesnt like what they're reading so they hit negative on people. Cracks me up that 1) people even care that their "reputation" received a negative and 2) that people care enough to actually hit negative on people lol hilarious

Well it's not Wolf or Freak doing it. That much we can be sure of. But Jamal? Who knows.

I could care less about the rep system Ludo. I ain't a bitch to neg people for their opinions.

How many times have you so lucidly commented as though you found it funny when you were really just being bitter? It's not that you "aint a bitch" to neg people, you don't have the ability to neg anyone since yours is in the negative.

I notice the two fruitcakes who don't believe in evolution also don't believe in global warming(besides oggy)


Should let yall know something

As long as I can say my opinion without getting censored then I can care less if people like it or not.

if you don't believe that we are responsible for global warming than you need to check yo facts son

wtf lol

Global warming is to science what wet dreams are to sex. It makes you feel good, but you know it isn't real.
