Solar Radiation not a factor in Global Warming

Posted on | July 15, 2007 | No Comments

In a scientific study published recently, it has been concluded that solar radiation is not responsible for the drastic warming on the Earth in recent years.

Global Warming nay-sayers have often cited solar radiation as the main factor in global warming and say that the human influence is negligible. This evidence was used in the “The Great Global Warming Swindle” video aired on the Channel 4. However, they only used data up until 1980 where the temperature on earth corresponded with the solar radiation coming from the sun. However, as the solar radiation is cyclical, the data diverged after 1980 and now it is quite conclusive that varying solar radiation has little, if any, impact on the temperature here on Earth. The above graph shows plainly that there is no connection.
