And Here is the Likely Right Wing Response
A panel of renown
international climate scientists has
studied the research on global warming and reached the following
conclusions.
“It is extremely likely that human influence
on climate caused more than half of the observed increase in global average
surface temperature from 1951 to 2010,” the draft report says. “There is high
confidence that this has warmed the ocean, melted snow and ice, raised global
mean sea level, and changed some climate extremes in the second half of the
20th century.”
The “extremely likely” language is stronger
than in the last major United Nations report, published in 2007, and it means
the authors of the draft document are now 95 percent to 100 percent confident
that human activity is the primary influence on planetary warming. In the 2007
report, they said they were 90 percent to 100 percent certain on that issue.
On another closely watched issue, however, the
authors retreated slightly from their 2007 position.
On the question of how much the planet could
warm if carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere doubled, the previous report
had largely ruled out any number below 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The new draft says
the rise could be as low as 2.7 degrees, essentially restoring a scientific
consensus that prevailed from 1979 to 2007.
The reaction by the conservatives who refuse to
believe in climate change as that would contradict their faith and ideology
for some reason are likely to issue the following statement.
The Vast Left Wing
Conspiracy on Climate Change
Or
How
Scientists Who Don’t Believe in the Bible Are Trying to Fool You
We the leading members of the
conservative community denounce once again a purported scientific study on
climate change. This is part of a world
wide conspiracy to take away our rights and stop pollution, when we all know
that pollution is the sign of economic progress.
The fact that this report is from
a group of international experts shows just how widely the conspiracy has
grown. And the fact that there is
no evidenced of conspiracy just shows how strong the conspiracy is at hiding its existence. That no one can find any evidence whatsoever that there is any conspiracy is the ultimate proof that one exists.
Yep, that’s probably what they will say.
