Lawrence Solomon: Global cooling underway

Long-term global cooling began in 2002, according to a just-released study in the Journal of Cosmology,

a peer-reviewed publication produced at Harvard-Smithsonian�s Center
for Astrophysics. Man-made global warming was real and dangerous, the
study finds, but the danger has passed.

The study,

authored by Qing-Bin Lu, a rising star at the Department of Physics
and Astronomy at the University of Waterloo in Canada, explains why
climate models have been so spectacularly wrong in trying to tie the
global warming of the last half of the 20th century to CO2 -- the
climate modelers fingered the wrong culprit when they targeted CO2.
The true culprits, Dr. Lu explains, were CFCs, the now banned
substances that until the 1990s had been a refrigerant and propellant
to products as diverse as air conditioners and hair spray cans.

Fortunately for the globe, environmentalists had CFCs banned because
of their role in depleting the ozone layer, not realizing that the
ban was simultaneously solving the global warming threat.

According to Dr. Lu, the phase-out of CFCs will be reversing the
global warming effect by ushering in a 50 to 70-year period of global
cooling.

Great column

How long until the Left will seize upon global cooling as the new
threat that has to be addressed with BILLIONS of dollars transferred
from rich countries to the developing world???
