Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now evident from observations of increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice and rising global average sea level |

Lord Monckton? From Wiki-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Monckton,_3rd_Viscount_Monckton_of_Brenchley However, his credentials as a commentator on climate change have been questioned by some commentators. James Hoggan and Richard Littlemore note in their book Climate Cover-Up: The Crusade to Deny Global Warming that Monckton has "no training whatsoever in science", and criticize his asserted credentials as "unfounded self-promotion
Lord Monckton, as any detractor likely has motive besides debunking climate change. |

The Facts About Global Warming
1.Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is not a pollutant. CO2 is necessary for life on earth. Nothing would be green without it. Vegetation thrives on increased levels of CO2. CO2 amounts to approximately 0.04% [1] of the Earth’s atmosphere. Likewise, mankind’s contributions to annual atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions are tiny. 97% of the CO2 released into the air is from natural sources. Mankind is thus responsible for 3% of the 0.04% of the atmosphere that’s comprised of carbon dioxide (0.001% of the atmosphere). As a greenhouse gas, CO2 is a weak agent. The most powerful contributor to the greenhouse effect is water vapor, which is responsible for 95% of the Earth’s greenhouse effect [2].
2.The Climate Changes. The Earth has constantly gone through periods of warming and cooling. The recent warming trend (which has now reversed – average world temperatures have been falling for the last decade) is not outside the natural variation that’s been observed in the geologic record. Mankind had nothing to do with the onset or end of any of the numerous past ice ages or warm periods.
3.Garbage in, Garbage Out. Computer models used by UN IPCC scientists that project catastrophic global warming are based on flawed inputs. The models assume that when average global temperatures are rising, less solar radiation is escaping from the Earth’s atmosphere. A new study by MIT climate scientist Richard Lindzen, using 15 years of data collected from an orbiting satellite found that the exact opposite is true [3].
4.Consensus. Science isn’t determined by consensus. Consensus is a mechanism of politics. We always hear that the debate is over, the science is settled and the scientific consensus is that we are facing a manmade global warming crisis. It’s a lie. The United Nations International Panel on Climate Change consists of hundreds of bureaucrats and only a handful of scientists. Only 50 IPCC scientists were responsible for the reports claiming catastrophic climate change is around the corner. 54 IPCC scientists dissented, but their remarks were excluded from the reports. Over 31,000 scientists from around the world, each holding a bachelor’s or higher degree (over 9,000 PhDs) have now signed a document stating that global warming is not a serious concern [4]. There is a consensus, but it’s not what we’ve been told.
5.Global Warming “Solutions” Will Harm, not Help. Supporters of cap and trade schemes claim that 100 years after implementing a cap and trade scheme, the Earth will warm 1/10th of a degree less than it otherwise would. This completely insignificant objective will cost the average American family thousands of dollars each year in increased energy costs. Middle and low income families will be hardest-hit.

Lord Monckton, by the way was a scientific adviser to former prime minister Margaret Thatcher. "No training in science whatsoever," but trusted to advise on scientific matters to the prime minister of the UK? I think not.
When the left can't argue with the facts, they attack the messenger - try to smear and discredit them. We're on to you now. When that fails, the old "right wing religious nut" and racist accusations come out, followed by a bunch of profanity. |

Minds have become so narrow. The weak minded can't think beyond what they've been indoctrinated to think and say.
THE EVIDENCE IS CLEAR. THERE IS NO EXISTENCE OF MAN-MADE GLOBAL WARMING. WHAT COMES UPON THIS EARTH IS THE NATURE OF IT''S ROOTS. MAN CANNOT STOP NOR CONTROL. THEY SURE CAN STIR THE POT AND USE STUPIDITY TO TRY TO GAIN THE MASSES. not only that, but if c02 is a poison, how does the government and the EPA explain the survival of cpr victims? When C02 is forced directly into their lungs? |

No, Dan, what comes next is how you've ignored the link to the IPCC you tried to use for your case. I provide an actual link and the report shows your post to be false. How is it that you go off and look up references, and certain studies that take focus off of the IPCC? Is it some way to divert your mistake?
You are wrong Dan, that's the fact.
I think you bring up your bias of my kind with that last retort. |

| Sory to butt in, but Rick, how much government backing are your sources? The fear mongering threat was initially MAN-MADE WARMING! Where is it, Rick? Now they cover it up to use the broad term "Climate Change." And you see nothing wrong with that? Something this big and threatening that a child has committed suicide over and you don't care what it's called? It's called a SCAM, Rick. It's awfully chilly in this state, so if global warming is caused by NATURAL RESOURCES AND THE USE OF, then we better continue, so we don't freeze to death! NATURE BALANCES OUT! do yourself a favor and STOP FOLLOWING LEADS OF DECEPTION! |

As a certified master environmental auditor having performed more that 1000 such audits Dan and Lord Monckton are absolutely correct in their statements and opposition. Those with opposing views fail to allow independent audits of their assertions and the formulas they use to project their predictions. Scientific consensus does not exist in science because real science is based on varifiable facts and validated hypothesis. These global warming zealots cannot and will not permit such verification of their flawed consensus positions. The products of our current school system have become the ignorant and obedient serfs of the global warming scam, the Obamacare scam, the government bailout scams, and the outlandish cap and tax scam. Each of us must do our part to bring truth to the forefront. Present facts instead of empty emotional rhetoric. Plus bring awareness of the tyranny that is present in our one-party government. |

Barb,
How about Nasa or the National Climatic Data Center or the National Ocianic and Atmospheric Association, and then add the British Broadcasting Service.
All of these have no heresey, but factual and sound scientific eveidence. There is nothing to guess, nothing to ponder, it's absolute fact. |

Jan,
Really? You're postivie about that?!
You can show that the Constitution allows that those treaties sign away our sovereignty?
RIGHT, you can show that the signing of the Copenhegan Protocol will without doubt end our sovereignty as a nation, under our Constitution?!
No Jan, you are a reactionary, and you spread it like a virus. You know nothing about the Kyoto Protocol which Bush ousted from U.S. climate policy and you know nothing of the Copehegan Protocol.
These ratified guidelines and rules would create cooperative and enduring quality of life changes for now and the future. Is the future unimportant to you Jan?
By the way, if "Who Cares!!" is actually your response, then why are you going on about sovereignty, when this issue has everything to do with "Who Cares!!"? |

I audit your Inane spew Gerry and find it to be utter trash.
Scientific review is critical to all and everything in science. If it can't be reviewed by fellow scientists and found to be repeated then it is indeed worthless science. However, you of all (acclaimed "master" auditors) must know this. Why am I explaining this?
I believe I am explaining this because you are a liar and a misinforming scum. |

Thanks for your response, Rick. The names of your sources are all backed by government.. Rick, please brace yourself and think clearly. Man did not create the universe and what has been provided on this earth for human life to exist, is there to be used for life to survive...don't let anyone influence this bull. Government only wants more control, more crisis, for more government. The government has been deceiving the public, why would you trust them on this outrageous fabrication? Especially with the profits being made by those that initiated this scam., They defy their own claim as they set NO EXAMPLE of the way they insist we live! They're hypocrites. I wish you well. |
