THE debate about climate change is finished -
because it has been categorically proved NOT to exist, one of the world's
leading meteorologists has claimed.
By: Jason Taylor
John Coleman, who
co-founded the Weather Channel, shocked academics by insisting the theory of
man-made climate change was no longer scientifically credible.
Instead, what 'little evidence' there is for
rising global temperatures points to a 'natural phenomenon' within a developing
eco-system.
In an open letter attacking the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, he wrote: "The ocean is not
rising significantly.
"The polar ice is increasing, not melting
away. Polar Bears are increasing in number.
"Heat waves have actually diminished, not
increased. There is not an uptick in the number or strength of storms (in fact
storms are diminishing).
"I have studied this topic seriously for
years. It has become a political and environment agenda item, but the science
is not valid."Man made climate change
is a myth acrding to Coleman, inset [AP]

Mr Coleman said he based many of his views on
the findings of the NIPCC, a non-governmental international body of scientists
aimed at offering an 'independent second opinion of the evidence reviewed by
the IPCC.'
He added: "There is no significant
man-made global warming at this time, there has been none in the past and there
is no reason to fear any in the future.
"Efforts to prove the theory that carbon
dioxide is a significant greenhouse gas and pollutant causing significant
warming or weather effects have failed.
"There has been no warming over 18
years."
The IPCC argue their research shows that
man-made global warming will lead to extreme weather events becoming more
frequent and unpredictable.
US News and World
Report noted that many of the world’s largest businesses,
including Coke, Pepsi, Walmart, Nestle, Mars, Monsanto, Kellogg, General Mills,
Microsoft, and IBM, "are now engaged and actively responding to climate
science and data."
Mr Coleman's comments
come as President Barack Obama came under fire from climatologists as federal data revealed
The United State's energy-related carbon pollution rose 2.5 per cent despite
the President's pledges to decrease it.
President Obama told 120 world leaders at the
United Nations climate summit last month that America had done more under his
watch in cutting greenhouse gases than any other country.
Despite this, the Energy Information Administration's
Monthly Energy Review showed an increase in the use of energy from coal.
World leaders have pledged to keep the global average temperature from rising two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels to prevent the worst consequences of climate change.

countries, is expected to pledge further actions on climate change early next

Climate expert William Happer, from Princeton
University, supported Mr Coleman's claims.
He added: "No chemical compound in the
atmosphere has a worse reputation than CO2, thanks to the single-minded
demonisation of this natural and essential atmospheric gas by advocates of
government control and energy production.
"The incredible list of supposed horrors
that increasing carbon dioxide will bring the world is pure belief disguised as
science."
In 2010 a high-level inquiry by the
InterAcademy Council found there was "little evidence" to support the
IPCC's claims about global warming.
It also said the panel had purposely
emphasised the negative impacts of climate change and made "substantive
findings" based on little proof.
