Decarbonising quickly and effectively to hit our net-zero target by 2050 requires urgent, clear and decisive leadership. Our short video looks at the skills requirements for delivering this target and breaks down the results from our recent Skills for net zero and a green recovery survey.

    Simon,

    It is true that a few months of discontinued warming is inconclusive from the point of forecasting climate change, but missing continuity of correlation between steadily raising atmospheric CO2 concentrations and fluctuating temperature dynamics in the XX century as well as after the warm El Nini year 2016 should make one asking questions - is the CO2 truly the main control knob for the climate? Same goes for 400+ MY of palaeoclimatology results.


    For persons free to use their own brains and willing to look into analysis of publicly available climate data I can recommend reports prepared monthly by professor emeritus Ole Humlum - anyone can look at the same data sources and tell him where he went wrong:

    A recent highly educational disussion in most civilized manner between two professors representing different lairs on climate science is also highly recommended:


    " A debate between climate optimist John Christy (University of Alabama, Huntsville) and climate pessimist Kerry Emanuel (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), hosted by Russ Roberts of EconTalk, found agreement that climate science is far from settled."
