BUOY MEET GORE: NEW TEMP MEASURING SHOWS NO GLOBAL WARMING

Investors Business Daily:

Global Warming: Computer models used by environmentalists predict imminent
and disastrous climate change. But actual temperature measurements by high-tech
equipment show something completely different.

... the first of 3,000 new automated ocean buoys were deployed in 2003.
They amounted to a significant improvement over earlier buoys that took their
measurements mostly at the ocean's surface.

The new buoys, known as Argos, drift along the oceans at a depth of
about 6,000 feet constantly monitoring the temperature, salinity and speed of
ocean currents. Every 10 days or so a bladder inflates, bringing to the surface
readings taken at various depths. Once on the surface, they transmit their
readings to satellites that retransmit them to land-based computers.

The Argos buoys have disappointed the global warm-mongers in that they
have failed to detect any signs of imminent climate change. As Dr. Josh Willis,
who works for NASA in its Jet Propulsion Laboratory, noted in an interview with
National Public Radio, "there has been a very slight cooling" over the buoys'
five years of observation, but that drop was "not anything really significant."
Certainly not enough to shut down the Gulf Stream.

Climate-change promoters also are perplexed by the observations of
NASA's eight weather satellites. In contrast to some 7,000 land-based stations,
they take more than 300,000 temperature readings daily over the surface of the
Earth. In 30 years of operation, the satellites have recorded a warming trend of
just 0.14C — well within the range of normal variations.

If the Argos buoys and satellites had confirmed the greenie computer models
and Gore hype instead of natural temperature variations, it would have been big
news. The silence speaks volumes.
