Study: Claim that CO2 drives temperature changes is just a FALSE NARRATIVE
07/23/2024 / By Kevin Hughes
The popular claims that carbon dioxide (CO2) drives global temperature changes presently or throughout the distant past “are based on imagination and climate models full of assumptions.”
This is according to an extensive study on the matter recently published by Demetris Koutsoyiannis titled “Stochastic assessment of temperature–CO2 causal relationship in climate from the Phanerozoic through modern times.” Koutsoyiannis holds an engineering doctorate and is a professor emeritus of hydrology and hydrosystems at the National Technical University of Athens.
The study is a stochastic assessment determination of the sequencing of CO2 variations versus temperature variations since the 1950s, over the last 2,000 years, and throughout the last 541 million years.
The strong conclusion of the study is that the causality direction certainly shows the temperature changes lead and CO2 changes lag on yearly, decadal, centennial and millennial scales.
