		<description>Global warming does exist.  That is wonderful news!  A warmer world is better for humanity than a cooler world.  The amount of warming actually predicted for the next century is not alarming.  Man&#039;s contribution to the total global greenhouse effect is .28%.  That means that 99.72% is natural.  If the U.S. were to sign onto and follow the Kyoto Accords, we would expect a reduction in that total of .0335%.  That is less than natural variability and definitely not worth crippling the global economy!</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;If it is truly a problem, then it wouldn&#039;t cost a thing to change it.
(Eg.Having to buy or rent the Inconvenient Truth tells me that it is only a money grabbing thing.) We are still making huge cars and trucks and still buying junk!  If we all stop buying into this and start thinking about what really is living than it would all come together. ie. If we just start living a simple life and buy only what we need and believe that there is move value with people in our lives instead of materials then and only then we will survive this so called global warming.&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Since the earth&#039;s temperature fluctuates - just like the business cycle does - there will always be politicians clamoring for credit for the ultimate and predictable corrective course change, when it occurs. &quot;My [legislative] bill caused the sea change and saved the day. Vote for me.&quot; 

&quot;Scientists&quot; have discovered - through empirical and reproducible experimentation - that they get more research funding when they predict the sky is falling. Warming advocates cleverly omit weather trends of the middle ages that skew their hockey-stick graph. They rely on erroneous or speculative assumptions for their computer models and then accept the predictions as gospel. They respond to dissent with ad hominem attacks, and try to marginalize the dissenter, no matter his credentials. They forget they, in lock-step consensus, just as histrionically warned of global cooling in the 1970&#039;s, unless &quot;something [drastic - as usual] was done&quot; [by big government, of course] immediately to reverse the trend, which, we now see, apparently reversed itself.

Each citizen must decide if he wants to be taxed to the tune of $4000/yr per family [for starters plus or minus (OK, plus) a factor of 10] to respond to a natural cycle, that - even if manmade -  we wouldn&#039;t be able to control anyway. This whole thing is a left-wing power grab. I&#039;m still waiting for global cooling and the population bomb to materalize. Advocates can now explain why cooling didn&#039;t happen after all, but they were unequivocal at the time in their predictions of annihilation. How soon we forget.</description>

		<description>JJ says in #78
&quot;...Mt. St. Helens did not increase the CO2 levels in the atmosphere by 30%. We have. By burning fossil fuels.&quot;

Oh my goodness, we&#039;ve taken something very, very small and increased it by 30%!!!
That&#039;s amazing!!!  Look!  CO2 concentration in the atmosphere is still very, very small!  (</description>

		<description>Peiser attempted to write a letter to Science that was rejected and published elsewhere (Energy and the Environment, vol. 16,  p. 685, 2005).  Nowhere in his letter does he say what lindzen asserts, that 900+ had no abstracts, a frankly bizarre claim.   Peiser makes a rather od claim that his letter was rejected on narrow technical grounds.  i suspect it was rejected because it was flawed.  A letter by ``strong climate change&#039;&#039; skeptic Roger Pielke was published and responded to by Oreskes last year.  Peiser claims that some 34 question the human role--but he has somehow pulled up about 200 more abstracts than Oreskes with no explanation of the discrepancy given that he claimed to use the same keywords.

Dennis Bray and  Hans von Storch have published what is ostensibly a direct survey of climate scientists that reveals majority support for human induced warming but not high consensus. What is not clear is who these climate scientists are-the survey was accessed voluntarily and the geographic distribution changed markedly between their initial 1996 and final 2003 survey.  I fail to see that they provided security against potential ``ballot  box stuffing&#039;&#039;.  This said, there is a clear shift of responses towards the above statement between 1996 and 2003.  

Lindzen&#039;s willingness to post crappy opeds on the notoriously biased WSJ pages undercuts his notable and singular credibility among `skeptics&#039;.</description>
