It was only a matter of time, but I must confess to surprise how quickly the first past the post-IPCC counter theory pops out: Cosmic rays blamed for global warming
What's a boy to think? Other than noting we are looking at a ratio of around 100 to 1 on boffins pro/con, I leave this latest to you.
Times - ‘Blame cosmic rays not CO2 for warming up the planet’
Junkk.com promotes fun, reward-based e-practices, sharing oodles of info in objective, balanced ways. But we do have personal opinions, too! Hence this slightly ‘off of site, top of mind' blog by Junkk Male Peter. Hopefully still more ‘concerned mates’ than 'do this... or else' nannies, with critiques seen as constructive or of a more eyebrow-twitching ‘Oh, really?!' variety. Little that’s green can be viewed only in black and white.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
Great - yet another scientifically based contra argument to inflame the debate! Given the suggested link between cosmic rays and the magnetic state of the sun, I guess we'll see the older argument (which I never quite understood) about changes in the sun's magnetic field being the direct cause of global warming returning to the fold too.
ReplyDeleteOh well, I guess that given the incredibly complex number of factors, both real and potential, that are or may be involved in GW, throwing in a few more can't make too much of a difference.
