Environmental organization leader disagrees with recent climate report

A recent climate report says to prepare for record-breaking heat in the years ahead, but not everyone agrees.

The World Meteorological Organization and the U.K. Meteorological Office say there's an 80% chance that the world will break another annual temperature record in five years.

There is a possibility that the world’s annual temperature will rise above the 1.5 degrees celsius goal that was set by the Paris Climate Accord for the first time before the end of the decade.

Dr. Cal Beisner, who is the president, founder, and national spokesman of Cornwall Alliance, disagrees with these claims.

"The climate models are extremely sophisticated mathematical structures. They've got millions of lines of code. The problem is how do we know whether it's 'garbage in and garbage out,' or whether it's, 'yeah, good stuff in and good stuff out?' The model is a guess as to how the climate system works. These models on which they depend, on average, simulate four times as much warming as actually observed,” Beisner explains.

The report also warns of more extreme weather events.

The rise in global temperature translates into a rise of extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes, heatwaves, and droughts. According to secular scientists, this is the results of human-caused climate change, and the effects can be caused by the world warming every tenth of a degree.

"When we actually look at the real-world observational data, we discover that there is no increase in the frequency or the severity of any extreme weather events. In fact, if anything, there's a slight downward trend in the frequency and the intensity of hurricanes,” Beisner said.

He added that earth's warming shows up mainly in the polar regions in the winter at night and not toward the equator during the summer in the daytime. Also, there isn't a significant increase in the frequency or intensity of heatwaves, but there is a decrease in cold snaps. As a result, he said there are fewer weather and climate-related deaths, as cold outbreaks on average kill 10 to 20 times as many people per day than heat waves.
