Duh.......Nice cherry picking...Did you intentionally leave this part out?.......Heatwaves will be lethal and the sea level will rise, leaving coastal towns at risk of being swamped by storm surges.
I have some future ocean front property in Arizona.
The "97%" number being tossed around by the AGW scammers comes from a University of Illinois online survey that only asked two questions. The university researchers solicited 10,257 earth scientists. Only 77 chose to answer the anonymous online survey. Of those 77, 75 agreed that man-kind contributed significantly to global warming. Thus you have your "97%" consensus among earth scientists.
No, you're completely wrong. Don't let that stop you, though.
Uh, it stopped warming 15 years ago. getting colder, you can stop wasting money.
Prove this. And if you're going to try using some tabloid article that claims the Met Office said something it didn't say, just start whining about Al Gore now. It'll save you time.
Is your mouse broken? Do your own research for a change.
I know what the answer is Sanspeur, at least as far as it pertains to the Doran study because I have read it instead of allowing the media and others to interpret it for me. I'm like a lawyer. I never ask a question in any of these debates I don't the answer too.
What I'm trying to do here is encourage Chad to go look it up himself.
I would assume there are 10,000's of climate scientists in the world. And they are connected to scientists who study ice records, ocean currents, record temperatures, study clouds, study the atmosphere, study ancient temperatures, study living old trees, ex.ex.ex.ex.
Chad there is only one reference on that page that actually polled scientists. It's the Dornan study.
There you have it. A survey of published works expressing an opinion on the matter of anthropogenic climate change reveals the vast majority endorse it. And 12000 papers is a lot.
I'm referring to actual numbers where the scientists were polled, and only the Doran study attempted to do that. The other ones differ becsue they arbitrarily assigned positions to the works of other scientists but I'll be happy to discuss the flaws in the Cook study.
Any intelligent child knows what the "Greenhouse Effect" is.
And any informed American knows that the average American lets out about 20 tons of Carbon Dioxide each year.
1+1=2
Chad, if you want to make an analogy we can compare to the insulation in your ceiling. Saying you know that insulation in your ceiling is going to trap X amount of heat without knowing the R-value and other variables such as if the windows are open is not going to produce very good results is it?
It's the same with climate science becsue there is a plethora of variables that can affect temperature.

Shhhhhh, I was hoping to get Chad to look it up.
