Global Temperatures Nosedive!
The credibility of Global Warming Alarmism is taking a serious hit at the moment, with reports of extreme winter conditions in many Northern Hemisphere countries, and Global Mean Temperatures taking a nosedive over the last 12 months in all the main datasets, while CO2 levels continue to rise.
With solar activity showing no signs of increasing for perhaps the next year or longer (we do not appear to have reached solar minimum yet), and the ongoing strong La Nina in the Pacific that is likewise showing no signs of going away soon, I expect global temperatures in all these datasets will continue to show a cooling trend for the foreseeable future.
In his Watts Up With That blog, Anthony Watts examined each of the main datasets as the Jan 08 results came out - I am presenting Anthony’s graphs below beneath a headline linking to the accompanying article on Anthony’s blog.

RIP Carl Smith.
Too all who knew Carl, I regret to inform that he finally lost his battle with cancer at 3:35pm (Queensland time) on Wenesday June 24, at Gold Coast Hospital.
He was surrounded with loved ones and his passing was a peaceful affair.
I am his brother Dave (aka davesmith_au) and would like private contact from those who worked with Carl on weather and global warming issues, cosmology, astrophysics or anything of that nature, to ensure his huge body of work and research is not lost.
Please don’t hesitate to email me davesmith_au@plasmaresources.com with details of your association with Carl and how you may be able to help with keeping his work ‘alive’.
May he rest in peace. No more pain.
Sincerely, Dave Smith.
