Henrik Svensmark collapses at Copenhagen

Well, my Jesus argument wasn’t that good. The cosmoclimatology is better.

Finally I get a percentage accurate or not. Dr. Svensmark included.
“The solar-cloud theory holds that changes in the sun’s activity produce changes in the earth’s cloud cover. Remember, the sunspot index has a very strong 79 percent correlation with our thermometer record over the past 160 years. The CO2 correlation with our temperatures is a meager 22 percent.”
Why not the Sun;

I really like stories like this. They are not boring like what comes out of the New York Times.
“The impact of the CRU e-mail release has been no less than extraordinary, particularly since the story was limited almost exclusively to the net for the first two weeks. The legacy media, without exception and in a process that we have become inured to, sat on the story, evidently in the hope that it would go away. (This started even before the story proper did. A month prior to the e-mail release, BBC reporter Paul Hudson was offered the files but refused to acknowledge them. We’re getting close to the point where the dictionary definition of “journalist” will have to be altered to read, “A media personality who attempts to stifle news stories out of cowardice, ideology, or for pay.”) But as we’ve also come to expect, the story instead traveled from server to server and screen to screen, bypassing newspapers, broadcast and cable news — with the exception of Fox — and all other conventional “news” sources. If the Net had been available as a mature instrument as far back as the 60s, recent history would have unfolded very differently. ”

Conspiracy Busts are so much more entertaining.

Anthony, I’ve sent him an email wishing him well. I hope all WUWT readers will do the same. Kind regards

So sorry to here what happened to such a great guy – one of the few to buck ‘consensus’ climate rubbish and do some real experimental science.
Here’s wishing him a full and speedy recovery.

Bad morning because of this news.
I met Svensmark a week+ ago in Berlin where he gave an excellent talk about cosmoclimatology – also including very cool animations.
Wishing him a full recovery. I am gonna to see my doctor now, to check my broken rib. Of course, it was broken by a tip of a hockey stick 😉 three weeks ago – and one probably can’t quite exclude some correlation of Svensmark’s incident with the ungracious stories taking place in most of Copenhagen, too.

Something needs to be done about the Weather Channel. They never stop spewing their global warming propaganda. The Antarctic is now melting, maybe we could ship the USA’s blizzard snow to the Antarctic. Do they even question the reason for the last two year’s early blizzard seasons?

In other news,
NASA: “Earth’s upper atmosphere is heated less by the sun and it is therefore less “puffed up.”

OK, so it’s old news. Don’t get all puffed up.

I wonder how many are there in Copenhagen with the thought, “In an odd way this is cheering news!”
Svensmark is an amazing scientist. Not just for grief he has endured for dare suggesting something that suggests that their might be other factors that contribute to climate change besides what is allowed within the current AGW orthodoxy/canon – not because he didn’t jump, with glazed over eyes onto the mindless, mantra-spewing activist bandwagon. Svensmark has been remarkable in keeping his composure, and quick, unlike the AGW crowd, to understate his own certainty.
I wish him a very speedy recovery.

I’m planning on shooting it. But I’m going to wait till Xmas cause I might get a plasma tv.
