Michael Duffy, writing in the Sydney Morning Herald, 3 May 2008 points out that according to the British Met Office's Hadley Centre and America's National Climatic Data Centre, global average temperatures have not risen since 2002.Duffy writes: "Hadley expresses temperature changes in terms of deviations from the 1961 to 1990 average. In 2002 the rounded global temperature for land and sea was 0.46 above that average. In the next five years it was: 0.46, 0.43, 0.48, 0.42, and 0.40.
The figures for the Date Centre are calculated slightly differently, but they too show no trend over the period in question." Duffy goes on to comment: "Whatever the recent figures might signify, it's disturbing that they haven't received more publicity. If the trend had been different - if warming had accelerated, say - you can bet it would have been reported everywhere. But because the figures since 2002 might raise doubts about the orthodoxy, there has been a great silence.
Most of those involved in public discussion of global warming simply ignored what was happening to the temperature record.
The media have continued to interpret any minor weather event as 'proof' of global warming. Political leaders have continued to crank up the panic."
Many thanks to Creation Research for pointing out these facts which are so uncomfortable for those who sold out to what has all the appearances of a deceit.
