global warming report 2007?

Question

Hi, can someone tell me where can I find the full report that the scientists presented about global warming?

Thanks!

Answer 1

According to this columnist, the full scientific report will not be released until May, and the scientists preparing the report have expressed dismay at the distortions in the summary:

Environmental expert decries 'hypocrisy' of Gore, greens

A climate change expert says Al Gore and other proponents of catastrophic manmade global warming are not only pushing flawed science, but also demonstrating hypocrisy while pushing their cause against what they consider a dire threat.

Former Vice President Al Gore recently announced a series of worldwide concerts to focus on the perceived threat of global warming. The "Save Our Selves" campaign will feature events in seven cities on July 7 and musicians such as Snoop Dogg, Bon Jovi, Kelly Clarkson, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw.

Dennis Avery, an expert on environmental issues at the Hudson Institute, says he doubts Gore and the environmentally conscious singers will forego taking a private jet to the concerts. "I think the worst hypocrisy is the guilt trip that the green movement has offered to all of us," he says. "And people are enthusiastic about being Al Gore's side, if they're non-scientists, to prove that they're socially responsible people [or] to prove that they're 'good' people. And I think it's nonsense."

Avery says he cannot agree with the explanation that the warming prior to 1940 was caused by human-emitted carbon dioxide (CO2), because 80 percent of the CO2 was emitted after that. "So if we take away 0.5 degrees of the warming from before 1940 and give human-emitted CO2 half of the net warming since 1940, that comes to 0.15 degrees ... over a 150 years," he says -- noting that occurred during a period "when the laws of physics say each additional unit of CO2 will have less forcing power than the one before it."

Avery is co-author of the book Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1,500 Years. Avery claims over the last 20 years, he and co-author Dr. Fred Singer have documented globally from dozens of different proxies a "natural solar-driven moderate" 1,500-year climate cycle. He says he is "greatly despaired," however, that no one is telling the public about it.

Helmut is correct, full report is due in may. The summary for policy makers was released this month.

The time difference makes me suspicious of te summary. I think the full report will be filled with caveats, we don't know thats, our models aren't that well understood statements, and the like.

Global warming is the observed increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation. Models referenced by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predict that global temperatures are likely to increase by 1.1 to 6.4 °C (2.0 to 11.5 °F) between 1990 and 2100.The uncertainty in this range results from two factors: differing future greenhouse gas emission scenarios, and uncertainties regarding climate sensitivity.

Global average near-surface atmospheric temperature rose 0.6 ± 0.2 °Celsius (1.1 ± 0.4 °Fahrenheit) in the 20th century. The prevailing scientific opinion on climate change is that "most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations,"which leads to warming of the surface and lower atmosphere by increasing the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases are released by activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, land clearing, and agriculture. Other phenomena such as solar variation have had smaller but non-negligible effects on global temperature trends since 1950.

An increase in global temperatures can in turn cause other changes, including a rising sea level and changes in the amount and pattern of precipitation. These changes may increase the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, such as floods, droughts, heat waves, hurricanes, and tornados. Other consequences include higher or lower agricultural yields, glacier retreat, reduced summer streamflows, species extinctions and increases in the ranges of disease vectors. Warming is expected to affect the number and magnitude of these events; however, it is difficult to connect particular events to global warming. Although most studies focus on the period up to 2100, even if no further greenhouse gases were released after this date, warming (and sea level) would be expected to continue to rise for more than a millennium, since CO2 has a long average atmospheric lifetime.

Remaining scientific uncertainties include the exact degree of climate change expected in the future, and especially how changes will vary from region to region across the globe. A hotly contested political and public debate has yet to be resolved, regarding whether anything should be done, and what could be cost-effectively done to reduce or reverse future warming, or to deal with the expected consequences. Most national governments have signed and ratified the Kyoto Protocol aimed at combating global warming.
The term global warming is a specific example of the broader term climate change, which can also refer to global cooling. In principle, global warming is neutral as to the period or causes, but in common usage the term generally refers to recent warming and implies a human influence.The UNFCCC uses the term "climate change" for human-caused change, and "climate variability" for other changes. Some organizations use the term "anthropogenic climate change" for human-induced changes.

Answer 5

go to globalwarming.com. or goolge.com and search for global warming

Answer 6

well... if you want to watch a movie that will tell you all about global warming then i definately suggest "an inconveniant truth". its a great movie that you can rent from any video rental place.

Answer 7

They haven't finished fabricating it yet.
