A top East European climatologist, who shared the Nobel Peace Prize with UN global warming colleagues, jumps a sinking ship as ocean data signals a cooler climate.Dr. Lucka Kajfež Bogataj left cold clear water between herself and her former UN shipmates by declaring that rising levels of airborne carbon dioxide probably don't cause global temperatures to rise. The news scuppers hope for a change in fortune for the beleaguered UN climate agency.
The Slovenian climate professor made the chilling announcement last month in an obscure foreign language journal that has only now been translated into English. The lambaste came in the publication Delo Polet (18/11/2010), translated into English as, "Inconvenient Truth." Inside Bogataj publishes a paper entitled, "The more we know, the better."
With science being thus clearly defenestrated it's the women who are now leading the men in fleeing the sinking ship. As that rotten IPCC hulk steers towards its ignominious fate, well known American climatologist, Dr. Judith Curry was the first female professor jostling for the lifeboats last month accusing the IPCC of "corruption" according to Nature magazine.
