I have followed this global warming story for the last 10 years or so, I have covered many scientific subjects and many subjects covered by the Paracast. I also work in a broad sense in the scientific community where when statements are made and need to be backed up with evidence, citing papers...

Well that is at least an honest post and I appreciate honesty. I have personally come from the pro global warming opinion & only changed my opinions after being confronted with articles by what seemed to me vested interests. I still took the plunge & still read that article. Whether a person is...

For those out there with an open mind on this issue can I suggest you read this very informative piece; The Climate Wars’ Damage to Science Considering this is not a science forum this news story explains many aspects of my previous posts but in a much more clear way. It explains the so...

In relation to predictions, what predictions have come true, which dire predictions are we being forced to live with?

Hi everyone, I am sorry if I am losing you, but ill try and pickup on a couple of my points. Firstly if you do not know of or understand what I am saying about Ike farewell address then please listen to the WHOLE speech, an not just the part that deals with military industrial complex. Ike...

I see people have told me about the science should not be debated on this thread and this is fair enough. I will need to stop posting links to this. Regarding the politics, what is this phrase "Climate Change Denier" actually used for? It is not scientific, its actually a very mean spirited...

I could not help but add this to my increasing list of predictions about this terrible ice loss. What we have below is a demonstration of how this bogus crisis spreads like a virus through the web. The link is below but I am going to put in the actual screenshots too. The final screenshot is...

Does Citibank have a stake in the global warming (AGW) hypothesis? Yes. Investments. Banks are likely to make massive amounts of money when investing in solar and alternative energy systems. You cant rely on any other person out there to do your own thinking for you. It doesn't matter if...

When it comes to headlines we need to be very careful & check the source of the actual data that is being reported. We recently had the same kind of announcements in the United Kingdom and trust me, this year has not been the hottest on record. What was reported was a record temperature...

This post is bang on the money. That farewell address is commonly used to demonstrate the rise of the MIC. But what he saw most clearly was that if science was to rely purely on the funding of governments, then politics would ultimately rule over the results of said research. Eisenhower...

Fair enough Tyger I will post questions on the correct forum as you are quite correct. I will just post news items here to cover the politics of it, that is a just topic in of itself.

I also think that MSNBC article is really over egging the pudding. The "global warming deniers" are not on the run, or concerned. Public polls over the last 10 years are crystal clear. The public simply don't buy the claims anymore, they can see the world for themselves. But honestly my...

Actually Tyger, let's put our discussion in the following way. What would change your mind regarding the AGW hypothesis?

Up until this recent Pope climate visit I thought he was making a difference. He still is, he is anti austerity, anti IMF, anti world banks, anti corruption. With his climate approach he is seeking to help the worlds poor, I respect that, but his thinking has been co opted. The energy &...

Regarding the climate emails, let me clarify your point. "Have you read the conclusions of the investigations of the emails?" I see you have answered your own question here but I thought the question was for me to answer? The answer is Yes and Yes. I have read the emails and I have also read...

"This is definitely a point of view. Not sure I've seen any of this. You'd have to be more precise in what you are referencing." Yes it is a point of view that I have arrived at over a long period of careful study. I used to be on the side of the alarmists until I put my money where my mouth...

Tyger The way I see it, human contribution of CO2 will have a negligible affect if any in the long term. "And you base this on what? Scientists say it is and will continue to do so." As before some scientists say this but tying in another of your points, science is about observation, not...

Who to believe - 97%? I have read the Cook et al paper where Professor Cook, from the University of Queensland authored a paper claiming to have reviewed the abstracts of 11,944 papers & found a 97% consensus of AGW theory. Have you read this work Tyger? If you have not, why not? If you...

CO2 Is a Pollutant in a Certain Context? What context is this? The last time I say CO2 as a pollutant was in that movie Prometheus where I think that alien planet had a 30% CO2 level. That would be poisonous to humans but 400ppm, no. For me plant food is a vital cog to which you agree...

The next part of your reply Tyger was "Start reading and you will find out why the CO2 level over the last 50 years of significantly of note". This is a very generalised sentence & perhaps you can suggest what I should read that would convince me of this? 400ppm is the current CO2 level, in...
