    LOL! Scraping the bottom of a barrel with that hockey stick eh?

    Here's another to upset you:

    Manhattan Declaration on Climate Change

    Nothing in that contradicts the IPCC position.

    And back to Hal Lewis, he was one of the scientists, as part of Jason, who first predicted to the US Govt that CO2 was a problem, back in the early 80s. Just because he doesn't like the implications of what he predicted isn't a good reason for making a fuss now.

    IPCC positon = Inconsequential would be the word, ridiculous hyperbole would be another two.

    Hey, you were the one posting the petition that didn't disagree with the IPCC.

    And, if you think the IPCC recommendations are inconsequential, why make yourself look stupid by trying to suggest that the basic science, backed by every major world scientific institution, is wrong in some fabulously unspecific manner.

    The petition didn't disagree??? Are you really that stupid? Here it is in BOLD, just for you:

    Now, therefore, we recommend –

    That world leaders reject the views expressed by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as well as popular, but misguided works such as “An Inconvenient Truth”.


    How on EARTH did you miss that?

    And as for one making themself look stupid...well...do I really need to answer that? And I love the way that you stick to the Crimatoligist key words/phrases:

    Basic Science
    Backed
    World
    Major
    Major Scientific Institutuions
    Position
    Denier
    Liar

    The fact is that your cult has little support apart from those such as Al Gore who stand to make billions if we were stupid enough to buy this scam! Once it is well and truly over, can I ask what you'll do for a living? Flipping burgers by any chance?

    Because they don't refute the science, just saying we shouldn't tax CO2, (they think a warmer world is better)

    Haha. Little support apart from every major world scientific institution. The science would still be true even if no non scientist understood it.

    You don't even seem to have a clue as to what's going on.

    The commie greenies are keeping the phrase "Climate Crisis " in reserve for a really bad weather event.

    Haha. So not calling a normal weather event a "climate crisis" is a cause of criticism from you?

    Quite how hopeless is your argument?

    in proper science, attempts are routinely made to disprove established theories

    so although ALL major scientific institutions and nearly all scientists 'believe' Eistein Theory of Relativity is true, there are nevertheless serious attmpets to disprove the theory... that's normal; no-one this this is odd behaviour

    however, with climate change any attempt to disprove it is considered mad or bad.
    this is bad science
