Astrology. Heh.Three of the five researchers disagree with the UN's IPCC view that recent warming is primarily the consequence of man-made industrial emissions of greenhouse gases. Remarkably, the subtle and nuanced language typical in such reports has been set aside.
One of the five contributors compares computer climate modelling to ancient astrology. Others castigate the paucity of the US ground temperature data set used to support the hypothesis, and declare that the unambiguous warming trend from the mid-part of the 20th Century has ceased.
If you, like me, are interested in this subject, you should RTWT. It's pretty long, but includes extensive portions of the report.
When the Japanese call-out something stupid as "ancient astrology" I can take a hint!
