Next decade ‘may see no warming’

The BBC web site, on the 1st May 2008, has reported on an article from the journal Nature about some German scientists who says we could see global temperatures remain the same for the next 10 years, but after that they will continue rising.

It says that,

A new computer model developed by German researchers, reported in the journal Nature, suggests the cooling will counter greenhouse warming. However, temperatures will again be rising quickly by about 2020, they say.

We have not seen global temperatures go up since 1998 and they have instead come down, which seems to go against the predictions of the scientists at the UN, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). As a result other scientists and people are starting to ask probing questions about the evidence for man made climate change.

So it looks like we have an answer for the time being. The current cooling is a natural event that will bring down temperatures for a little while but they will continue to rise again in the future. This excuse is going to be used to hide the fact that their theories on climate change are wrong. It seems odd that the computer models that were used to promote climate change, which showed a continuing rise in temperatures, are the ones that now show the current cooling and future increases. The computer models of the pass were wrong so why should we trust the new one?
