Shock for 'settled' science

NEW evidence points to temperatures on Earth rising before an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide.

The findings are causing considerable concern in the 'settled' world of climate science where a political narrative promoting Net Zero demands that it is undeniable that temperatures rise after humans burn fossil fuels.

The controversy has been building for about a year since initial findings were first published by the UK Royal Society.

The latest work from four scientists uses sophisticated techniques to examine data from numerous temperature and CO2 data sets over the last 60 years. As with the initial findings published by the Royal Society, they found the causality link - placing a CO2 rise ahead of temperature - cannot be scientifically supported, since it is clearly shown that temperature precedes CO2 by six or more months.

The collectivist Net Zero project relies on the assumption that humans operate a climate thermostat by burning fossil fuel.
