97% of "scientists" believe in global warming...

[Dr Keghead]

Pretty much says it all...

[Z-Man]

That's a lot of scientists lying to keep that sweet sweet grant money rolling in.


I read an article recently that stated that average global temperatures have been on a decline for the last 19 years.

Didn't Al Bore claim that the Polar ice cap would be melted by now? It is actually growing larger. Wrong again Al.

In the 70"s several "news" rags were predicting global freezing

A consensus is not science. There was a time when 99% of "scientists" believed the world was flat. That did not make it so.

The Cataclysmic Global Warming industry is a government sponsored scam. Reasons for supporting it range from misguided good intent (the average spoon-fed person) to those making a living off a profitable fraud (academics and participatory industries). If it were real beyond the fact that the climate is always changing, we would have frozen over or burned off over 20 times between 1880 and today.

When science and politics share the same space, facts are often displaced by media created perceptions.

Z-Man mentioned grant money. Folow that money trail and see where it takes you.

[Dr Keghead]

The 97% figure is fiction... and the press conveniently ignores the fact that more than 31,000 physicists and physical chemists, over 9,000 with PhDs, signed a petition that specifically states that "there is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate"

[JGDJR]

you are correct Cruiseman...

[Dr Keghead]

Cruiseman's statement is true...but as pointed out in my last post, there is no consensus.

My first thought, before I even read your next line, was especially when money is involved
