:mrgreen: oh nooooos... the BROs (aka the white-knights) are rallying! it is just tooooooo easy to get a most predictable rise!
You just got pwned again.. See below
holy moly
Das siebenundneunzig Prozent-Problem: Welcher Konsens? | Die kalte Sonne
The claim of a 97% consensus on global warming does not stand up | Richard Tol | Environment | The Guardian
Germns should have known long ago about the absence of consensus. Post & Kepplinger sent questionaires to German scientists they could see active in the field of climate science. They got about 130 responses. (Data summary PDF – in German) There is no consensus.
Die Welt carried an article on it in Spetember 2007.
Climategate shows a public perception of 'that global warming is man made', and it has now become a 'new religion'. The Earth's climate has always fluctuated between getting warmer and colder. This was long before the industrial revolution. We must protect our environment, but not get swept along without questioning how to do it. The absence of the impact of Cyclical Celestial Phenomenon in the argument by the 'Alarmists' is in itself questionable. And whatever happened to predictions of a New Ice Age prior to 1975...... what we have now is a political agenda,placing a new global taxation system upon us all, and it is the poor that will have to pay for it.
"In reality, the IPCC conference was the charade designed to engineer a massive transfer of wealth from industrialized nations to those, as often as not, ruled by a variety of despots and authoritarian, corrupt governments that have failed to keep pace with the West for whom the use of “fossil fuels” has marked their economic ascendancy." ......
"Even when they are proved wrong, the warmists will never admit it. They simply move the goalposts — which is how global warming morphed into ‘climate change’. You can’t argue with them. That’s because ‘climate change’ isn’t a *science, it’s a religion. Sceptics are trashed as heretics. The climate change lobby is a curious mix of cultists and cynical opportunists."(Daily Mail)
"It is of course, the global warming scam, with the (literally) trillions of dollars driving it, that has corrupted so many scientists, and has carried APS before it like a rogue wave. It is the greatest and most successful pseudoscientific fraud I have seen in my long life as a physicist. Anyone who has the faintest doubt that this is so should force himself to read the ClimateGate documents, which lay it bare. (Montford's book organizes the facts very well.) I don't believe that any real physicist, nay scientist, can read that stuff without revulsion. I would almost make that revulsion a definition of the word scientist." (Harold Lewis, Emeritus Professor of Physics, University of California, Santa Barbara)
