UW-Milwaukee Study Realigns Climate Change Theory

Scientists Claim Earth Is Undergoing Natural Climate Shift

A new study by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee could turn the climate change world upside down.

"This way we were able to explain all the fluctuations in the global temperature trend in the past century," ..."The research team has found the warming trend of the past 30 years has stopped and in fact global temperatures have leveled off since 2001."

Tsonis said.

"But if we don't understand what is natural, I don't think we can say much about what the humans are doing. So our interest is to understand -- first the natural variability of climate -- and then take it from there. So we were very excited when we realized a lot of changes in the past century from warmer to cooler and then back to warmer were all natural,"

Tsonis said he thinks the current trend of steady or even cooling earth temps may last a couple of decades or until the next climate shift occurs.
