Insincere people with double standards promote global warming and, feigning to be experts, are making money in the name of global warming, Chairman and Head of Panjab University’s Centre of Advanced Studies (CAS) in Geology, Professor Arun D Ahluwalia said. “The pressure imposed on poor countries to reduce carbon emissions is unfair and unscientific and it is a pity that Nobel Prize winners are arrogating scientific wisdom to themselves and supporting exploitation of the poor by the already rich,” added Professor Ahluwalia.

“The bogey of human induced climate change that is being forced down the throat of developing nations by the developed G8 and G20 nations is not merely unfair, but nothing short of a swindle forced on unscientific presumptions if not designed distortions,” said Ahluwalia, also the chairman of Advanced Studies in Geology.

Professor Ahluwalia told The Pioneer that geologists are aware that global warming has followed every phase of global cooling in geological past since the origin of Earth due to some complex natural dynamics of earth, sun and several other factors.

The elegant professor of Geology said that man could be called a cause of this only by the naive or by political exploiters and it is disappointing that IPCC is also promoting the myth that the global warming is man made. Professor Ahluwalia further added that unconscionable powers are exerting all political pressures on the poor countries on the basis of a virtual fraud in the name of global warming and this needs to be confronted scientifically and politically.

He further said” I have raised this issue in the Climate Panel Meet in IGC at OSLO last year, by now over 650 scientists from across the world have joined hands to call the bluff of these so called climate saviours whose only concern is getting research grants, making money for themselves and their countries and companies.”
