Or as Wolfgang Knorr of the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK would put it, “Is the airborne fraction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions increasing?”
This is the question that the promoters of global warming and carbon trading have not wanted answered. If the answer is no then the carbon emissions of mankind have not made the slightest jot of difference.
From the article: Climate Change Fanatics Shocked as New Scientific Paper Reveals Zero Atmospheric Carbon Increase over on the British National Party website: -
The pseudo-science of man-made global warming has received another blow — and we’re not just talking about the brutal cold gripping not only Britain but all of Europe, North America and China. A newly released study from the University of Bristol by Wolfgang Knorr proves that the airborne fraction of man-made carbon dioxide (CO2) has not increased during the past 160 years.
Mr Knorr, based at the Department of Earth Sciences at his university, analysed atmospheric CO2 and emissions data gathered since 1850 and has shown that “the trend in the airborne fraction since 1850 has been 0.7 ± 1.4 percent per decade, i.e. close to and not significantly different from zero.”
In other words, the data shows that there has been no increase in atmospheric CO2 volume for the past 160 years — flying in the face of the climate change fanatics who claim the direct opposite.
or to put it in the mans own words: -
Several recent studies have highlighted the possibility that the oceans and terrestrial ecosystems have started loosing part of their ability to sequester a large proportion of the anthropogenic CO2 emissions. This is an important claim, because so far only about 40% of those emissions have stayed in the atmosphere, which has prevented additional climate change. This study re-examines the available atmospheric CO2 and emissions data including their uncertainties. It is shown that with those uncertainties, the trend in the airborne fraction since 1850 has been 0.7 ± 1.4% per decade, i.e. close to and not significantly different from zero. The analysis further shows that the statistical model of a constant airborne fraction agrees best with the available data if emissions from land use change are scaled down to 82% or less of their original estimates. Despite the predictions of coupled climate-carbon cycle models, no trend in the airborne fraction can be found.
“No trend in the airborne fraction can be found”.
Thank you Wolfgang Knorr. You have just rendered the multi billion pound international trade in carbon offsetting obsolete.
My guess is that the politicians and banksters with the vested interests will carry on regardless for as long as it takes for the populations of the western nations to realise that they are being taxed into penury in the biggest Socialist redistribution of wealth ever imagined.
