I thought the most interesting part of the article was the hope that "doubts would be silenced" by a scientific report. The notion that science should make people stop asking questions is a thoroughly modern, PC one. It's fully in line with what the UN and most of the western world want nowadays, but is quite the opposite of what science was supposed to be about.

Maybe there is hope for Britain after all.

Good to see that the Brits are "wising up." Follow the money, folks -- all the grants (essentially free money, provided by you and me, the taxpayers of this nation), et al., going to these bought-and-paid-for "scientists" to promulgate this gigantic scam; once they've locked up their funding this way, they'll say ANYTHING at all to advance their so-called cause.

As for the IPCC, the old saying "GIGO" (garbage in, garbage out) certainly applies to that bunch of scum. Why anyone would believe a damn word the U.N. says is beyond me.

How do you know its a hoax?

Don't you respect the world's top scientists? I think they know better than right wing politicians.

Its scary that hard right ideologues try to discredit and silence the world's most accomplished and respected scientists. The war against science is scary.

Its like the Nazis' war on science.

Lee...you really did stumble on the wrong website. Let me suggest you try this:

http://www.junkscience.com/

You might be surprised that there isn't, in fact, a "consensus" among scientists (an oxymoron, by the way). Not everyone that doesn't believe this stuff (i.e. isn't drinking Al Gore's Kool Aid) is a "right wing politician".

NO TO SOCIALISM. DUMP THE U.N. DRILL HERE, DRILL NOW.

...and Lee, true to liberal progressive form, immediately goes for the "Nazi, demonization" card. "You DARE to not see it our way? YOU ARE A NAZI."

You, Lee, are either agenda driven (i.e. you know it's a hoax, but are using it in hopes of breaking the U.S. economy and culture, and foisting socialism in it's aftermath) or you are a dupe.

The debate is over. The consensus is in. 12,175,743 political scientists agree. You are one or the other. Hey, at least I'm not calling you a Nazi.

Woah! Lee with the funniest comment I have read in quite a long time. If memory serves, and it does, no one has been silenced, except those who have spoken out against anthropogenic global warming. Heck, wasn't it some Weather Channel twit who said that any meteorologist that doesn't hold the "Man is at fault" line should have their AMA credentials yanked? Yup.

Lee, we are not discrediting them in particular, but their viewpoints. Unlike the Left, we tend to go after the issue, not the person. Excepting Al Gore, who, guess what, Lee? Is not a scientist!

Lee,
Regarding "the world's top scientists": Since "global warming" is a weather/climate related situation, you would assume that climatologists/meteoroligists would be the LARGEST group of scientists pushing this issue, wouldn't you?
Wouldn't you say that these types are the EXPERTS in this area?
Most (homework assignment, Lee: do a "Google" search) climatologists agree that this "global warming" is a NATURAL RECURRING PHENOMENON!!! (Is Algore a climatologist? a meteorologist? a wanker???)
Most of the "scientists" clamoring for "global warming is the end of the world in 7 weeks" are working OUT OF THEIR AREAS OF EXPERTISE.
Read "Scientific American", not the democratic party science platform.

OLT = Obama Lightworker Topic

....But, can't the Lightworker solve all of human kind's problems and end the global warming hoax?

-----------

"Here we have a true Lightworker," explained Alexis Virago, High Harridan of the Church of the Holy Hooter (commonly known as the Boobtists). "He is probably not really human, or at least not totally human; I suspect that his father was a spiritual being residing temporarily in physical form in order to accomplish The Obama's incarnation."

Same topic,

It's not just the UK, others in Europe don't 'give a hoot' and increasingly jet polute.

They will just continue to pay the increasing socialist tax burden and carry on.

Low Cost Airlines - Air Travel and Carbon on Increase in Europe – Common Europeans now also ignore the Global Warming Hoax and travel by air

Let's see...

2,500 scientists say manmade global warming is a fact.

30,000 scientists say manmade global warming is a hoax.

Of course - it's the worthless dipwad Algorian idiots who believe the 2,500.

Health Alert if you own a Prius.

Not to mention that a Prius cause more environmental damage over its lifespan than the carbon it saves when the owner drives it. But it still has a ‘Smug Effect’ (South Park remark).

Writing for the Heartland Institute, John Dale Dunn of the American Council on Science and Health notes many people who have bought taxpayer-subsidized hybrids are trading them in — at huge losses in some cases…. Worried about health effects

I should add that the 2,500 are bought and paid for by the shyster himself - Al "god" Gore.

Some days, I just do not understand the PC social welfare state.

The facts about ManBearPig have been stated to Lee repeatedly, but he pretends they haven't.

2,500 scientists say manmade global warming is a fact.

Most of those aren't scientists, but scienticians. It's unsurprising that when politicians wave grant money in front of scientists to "prove" AGW exists, a lot of scienticians will suddenly come up with research to "prove" it exists.

Our pal Lee was just another hit-and-run enviro-lib sniper. They come into a site, scream and shriek like one of those tree-sitters in Berkeley, then slink off when they find out that they are with intelligent people.

"Oops, screaming "Nazi" and invoking the words "environment" and "scientist" isn't working. Time to move on..."

V the K
What the heck is a "Scientician"? Just askin'!!

Global Warming hysteria, and its ridiculously expensive, restrictive, and ineffective socialist reactions is one big scam. It's being used as an excuse to institute all manner of bad ideas.

This is true regardless of the truth of the theory of man made global warming. It's a case of the cure being worse than the disease, if the "disease" exists at all.

What the heck is a "Scientician"?

Someone who is less of a scientist, and more of a politician. Someone who misuses "science" to achieve a political end.

Gorebal Worming is just another socialist scam to exert control. It has nothing to do with "science", per say. When you compare the multi-gigawatts of energy that pours down on Earth from the sun every day with the Human output it's like comparing the Oceans to swimming pools. AGW will go down as one of the most rediculous scams in human history.

JimK - it will, as long as someone sane survives the 'cure' to the hoax to laugh about it.

OT = Obama Topic

What if an Obamazionist calls you a racist because you do not support Obama?

One of the frustrating things about reading articles like that is when whey mention the 2500 scientists from the UN IPCC but consistently refuse to mention any opposition, such as the 31,000 U.S. scientists who declared it a hoax, mentioned by other posters here. Those articles simply become part of the propoganda itself, instead of reliable news sources.

A good write up about that here.

OFT = Obama Friends Topic

Obama friends of 20 years is as Obama friends does today!

NGW - all of the Party Line Socialist Scientists at NASA are on the 'Grant Wagon' also.

Some of them have tried to stand up to the bully Hanson, and the rest of the wanna-bees who are worried about thier pitiful Roses Grants not their heads and move along with the PC crowd.

In case Lee comes back, I'll answer his objections.

1: "How do you know its a hoax?"
Because nothing has been proven, only computer simulations of what MIGHT happen IF the trend continues have been offered. Better yet, selling carbon credits is a scam.
2: "Don't you respect the world's top scientists?"
What exactly is a "top scientist"? Do they hold contests, or turn in papers to be graded by some high authority?
3: "I think they know better than right wing politicians."
Do you think they know better than LEFT WING polititions?
4: "Its scary that hard right ideologues try to discredit and silence the world's most accomplished and respected scientists."
As it has been pointed out above, the only people who are "being silenced" are those who QUESTION 'global warming'.
5: "The war against science is scary."
Yes it is, people like YOU should stop trying to prevent honest research.
6: "Its like the Nazis' war on science."
You mean like when the Nazis prevented the development of the most advanced helicopters, submarines, rockets. jet planes and banned nuclear research in the the early forties?

Lee, you say that 2,500 scientists agreeing on something makes it true, but you fail to admit that about 600 had publicly denounced the paper and demanded that their names be removed from it because they had OBJECTED to it BEFORE the paper was released. Also, if you think a VOTE settles the matter, it was pointed out that over 30,000 scientists said that 'global warming' was NOT caused by mankind!
Besides, dozens of "your" scientists have said that reducing carbon emissions as much as the "gorians" have demanded would NOT have any effect on 'global warming'.

And it's not getting warmer to boot.

Anon, I don't get Lee's crack about the Nazis being anti-science either. They developed some very nasty artillery and advanced armor piercing rounds along with the stuff you mentioned. The wicked little Panzerfaust is an innovation that is still with us today too in more advanced forms, much to the chagrin of tank and other vehicle crews.

It's a good thing today's totalitarian supremacists are usually too backward to develop or produce anything like the Nazis did.

Lee pops up every few months and leaves pretty much the same post every time.

On a related note, I'm kinda shocked the Dan Quayle imposter hasn't posted yet. He seems to be particularly interested in schooling us on environmental issues. I guess his basket-weaving class hasn't let out yet.

At the most it is probable but not definitive. To call it a HOAX is ludicrous. I am a hard core capitalist. If global warming exits - it exists, regardless of your political ideology. It is a scientific issue not a political one.

I am not a "tree hugger" or a socalist. I am economically conservative and socially progressive.

The sound of a "social progessive":

flipflopflipflopflipflopflipflopflipflopflipflop
flipflopflipflopflipflopflipflopflipflopflipflop
flipflopflipflopflipflopflipflopflipflopflipflop

they stand for NOTHING, make an issue out of ANYTHING, and are sniveling little idiots.

Jimbo,

Are you OK? You sound alittle unstable.

Jimbo,

I think it is going to be a long 8 or maybe even 16 years for you. You may want to consider moving to Canada - oh no that is even more progressive. Maybe Europe - no - also progressive - maybe Nigeria or Eygpt then. Bye.

Canada - oh no that is even more progressive.

Yeah, so "progressive" they're already holding Stalinist show-trials of people like Mark Steyn and Ezra Levant for publishing politically inconvenient truths.

Not to mention Canada's progressive three month waits for basic medical care.

I don't think it's conservatives who are constantly threatening to move to other countries to protest democratically-held elections. I believe that would be libtards, specifically Hollywood libtards.

Here is what moonbattery looks like after a country has become completely unhinged and lost its will to live.

I'll stay right here, Ms. Lee.

This is my country. Come and take it from me, bitch.

I appreciate the way you were able to rebut all those above who have issue with your world-view. Rather than debate you change the subject.

Typical liberal-speak.

As I say - you stand for nothing, little girl.

Not only is the science not settled but there a more than 2 view points in the scientific community. Some scientists have suggested global warming is occuring and is a goood thing, others say it is not occuring, others it is but not manmade, others say it is manmade but we can't reverse it etc...Which one to trust? who knows but alarms calls for authoritarian measures could actually do more harm than good.

I know little about climate science but quite a bit about computer generated mathmatical models of dynamic systems(such as the atmospher), no one in my field would consider a computer model prophetic or worthy of forcing all human activity to radically change.

Quit being so logical mandy - you'll make liberals' heads explode.

On second thought... GO FOR IT!! :-)

Why do you entice it?

It is an idiot.

Ignore it.

Lee,

What do you say about the 31,000+ scientist in the U.S. alone that denounce global warming?

Lee, the worst thing about science is the damn data - for the last 20 years, CO2 goes up, temperature goes down !

D'oh ! My Apologies, I missed that in the preview.

Below is quote is a link to the graph that goes with it:

"Below is the monthly Hadley land and ocean and UAH MSU lower tropospheric temperatures over the last decade plotted with the CO2. Note the temperatures have not warmed, something even IPCC’s head Dr. Rajendra Pachauri took note of (paraphrasing him - as for the plateauing of temperatures in recent years, we have to see if there are natural factors offsetting greenhouse gases). Note the correlation with CO2 has vanished the last decade for both data sets."

"It is a scientific issue not a political one." - Lee

Lee, I have some carbon credits for sale - real cheap. You interested?

Seriously though, if you can't see this issue has become more political than scientific, I don't think there's any helping you.

Cherry crop devastated by Global Warming. Naw, just kidding, it was this winter's record cold.
