'United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has opened high-level talks at the climate change conference in Bali with a call to action.
He said that if no action was taken, the world would face impacts such as drought, famine and rising sea levels.
Delegates are hoping to agree a "Bali roadmap" leading to further cuts in greenhouse gas emissions when the Kyoto Protocol targets expire in 2012.'
'Consensus' Shattered As Major Scientific Study Says Global Warming Is Natural
Better tell the Sun then.
'The so-called scientific consensus that global warming is man-made has
been shattered with the release of a major new study backed by three
universities which concludes that climate change over the past thirty
years is explained by natural factors and that attempts to reduce
carbon dioxide emissions are irrelevant.
Climate scientists at the University of Rochester, the University of
Alabama, and the University of Virginia report that temperature
fluctuations over the past three decades are not consistent with
greenhouse model predictions and more closely correlate with solar
activity.'
