AU, those to sites you provided links to are a bit short on facts and long on propaganda with not much to even consider unless one wants to blindly accept what is said as factual. Do you have any better research to share??
2126, I found it amusing that you produced a fairly long post based primarily on political correctness and no facts or citations and then end it with your opinion that this isn't the appropriate place for a discussion. I've said what it is so no more discussion??
Here's an article out of Forbe's that addresses the subject of consensus. http://www.forbes.com/sites/larrybell/20...ensus-not/
And another, also from Forbe's. http://www.forbes.com/sites/jamestaylor/...ng-crisis/
Here's one from Investor's Business Daily. http://news.investors.com/ibd-editorials...change.htm
And then there's one from American Thinker http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2014...rming.html
There are lots more that deal with debunking the mythical consensus. There also lots of studies based upon the facts that help to explain climate change, which for quite some time, has been in a cooling phase.
It you study the Vostok chart I posted a link to previously, you will see that climate change is quite normal with Earth having Ice Ages about every 80,000 to 100,000 years and these Ice Ages are always followed by warming periods as well as cooling periods.
Obviously, during that small slice of time over a span f over 400,000 years, the Ice Ages nor the warming periods were caused by man. Also, according to the data they developed from those ice core samples, Earth had more CO2, higher temperatures as well as less CO2 and lower temperatures. Climate is cyclical. You can easily prove that to yourselves by reviewing the data from the past few hundred years.
