Chilling Stars Author Henrik Svensmark On Video

In a five-part [each about ten minutes] video series featuring Danish scientist Henrik Svensmark, the author of The Chilling Stars talks about his research into the effects that cosmic rays have on cloud formation. His theories contradict the IPCC’s theory of anthropogenic global warming, which basically blames last century’s rise in average global temperature on human CO2 emissions. As many good scientists outside of the inbred climate change community have noticed, carbon dioxide just isn’t up to the job of causing last century’s observed global temperature rise. Instead, Svensmark and his colleagues hypothesize that clouds created by cosmic rays, which are in part controlled by the activity of the sun, regulate Earth’s climate. Because this contradicts the IPCC’s view of global warming, Svensmark’s theory has been ignored by the climate alarmists and Svensmark himself vilified….(Full Story)

Svensmark’s theory presented in the video series is important, especially in view of the fact that there is a dearth of proof that atmospheric CO2 levels drive temperature trends.  Although atmospheric levels of CO2 are steadily increasing, there is no corresponding increase in global temperatures.  The reality of that is that after the higher than normal global temperatures that the 1998 El Niño helped to create, there has been a trend of declining global average temperatures.
