Climate change PROVED to be 'nothing but a lie', claims top meteorologist

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.
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 according to

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.
The US, along with the UK and other developed
countries, is expected to pledge further actions on
climate change early next year.

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.
