Scientists Expect Wildfires To Increase As Climate Warms In Coming
Decades
ScienceDaily (July 29, 2009) As the climate warms in the coming
decades, atmospheric scientists at Harvard's School of Engineering and
Applied Sciences (SEAS) and their colleagues expect that the frequency
of wildfires will increase in many regions. The spike in the number of
fires could also adversely affect air quality due to the greater
presence of smoke.
The study, led by SEAS Senior Research Fellow Jennifer Logan, was
published in the June 18th issue of Journal of Geophysical Research.
In their pioneering work, Logan and her collaborators investigated the
consequences of climate change on future forest fires and on air
quality in the western United States. Previous studies have probed the
links between climate change and fire severity in the West and
elsewhere. The Harvard study represents the first attempt to quantify
the impact of future wildfires on the air we breathe.
This whole study is based on fraudulent data
and false premises. It starts out "As the
climate warms in the coming decades" but it is
not 'warming' and is unlikely to so do.
They predict "a spike in the number of fires"
impacting the air we breathe.
1- Fires spike every summer mostly from
natural causes. Recent increases in California
are a product of unregulated overpopulation.
2- Smoke from forest fires, wildfires, and
volcanic eruptions a- cool the air, b- distribute
CO2 where it is most needed.
3- The fires release CO2 which is essential for
plants, and algae which use carbon dioxide
and water, by photosynthesis releasing oxygen
for the animals to breathe
We know that Jennifer Logan and her friends
were paid to do what they did and how they did
it, but that does not make it right nor must we
give it any credence.
In real science the burden of proof is always on
the proposer, never on the sceptics. So far
neither IPCC nor anyone else has provided one
iota of valid data for global warming nor have
they provided data that climate change is being
effected by commerce and industry, and not by
natural phenomena. |
