Global warming alarmists were wrong about Gulf Stream, too By: Barbara Hollingsworth Local Opinion Editor 03/30/10 12:55 AM EDT Another addition to the non-events predicted by the global warming crowd: The Gulf Stream is not, repeat NOT, slowing down. Between 2002 and 2009, scientists from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory have seen no, repeat NO, discernible long-term trend in the major oceanic circulation that affects major weather systems worldwide. In an article published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, the JPL’s Josh Willis cited satellite altimeters and floating probes that measure water temperatures across the Atlantic Ocean that refute the computer-concocted figures typically used to predict warming by the now discredited Climate Research Unit at East Anglia University and the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in their attempt to force developed nations to give up everything that made them developed in the name of global warming. Professor Harry Bryden of Britain’s National Oceanography Center confirmed the JPL findings, noting that despite lots of short-term variability in Gulf Stream temperatures, a long-term change in flow caused by a sudden slowdown of the current has just not happened as predicted. It's amazing how all those supposedly brilliant scientists have been so embarrassing wrong on the melting of the Himalayan glaciers, on how rising temperatures would supposedly cause massive crop failure in Africa, on livestock creating more greenhouse gases than vehicles, and even on whether the Earth is warming at all.
