Just out of curiosity, has any fed with bona fide credentials in this area posted in this thread yet? If so, who was it? I want to read their opinion.

Yes, global warming and climate change are real. The sun, the stars, the moon, rain, snow, blizzards, droughts too. It's all real and part of nature. But all the hoop-la about how man has somehow caused any of this to change is a bunch of crap! Man didn't cause it and man cannot change it. The earth changes everyday, according to the weather. Always has....always will! It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Whadya think, nnuut?!

Another meteorologist here, 40 years experience. The warming is real, it is just very poorly explicated in every book I've read. Journalists simply cannot write about science. For example, Tim Flannery who has acquired a reputation lately, writes that "air holds water" (Weather Makers, pp123). With that sort of idiocy he lost my respect.
The only real contention concerns the extent to which mankind is responsible. In my estimate that percentage is non-zero but growing, probably 25% or less today. The next big volcano that goes off will show us.
Great to have 2 meteorologists on the Board commenting on Climate Change in this thread, I know of a couple more. Agreeably there has been warming especially noticeable around the Northern Arctic region, although Antarctica is cooling. I am no meteorologist by a long shot, all I know is what I've learned researching the subject. If you read back in this thread you may understand how a layman could question the Global Warming Theory (now renamed to Climate Change for some reason). The whole premise that CO2 is the MAIN Contributer to the Warming has been proved to be wrong as far as I'm concerned and is obviously being used as a means to promote a Social agenda. The Science is just not there to support the CLIMATOLOGISTS Claims. It is a sad thing but some of the most respected world wide meteorological Organizations were COOKING THE BOOKS to promote their POLITICAL AGENDA!! It's all about Copenhagen and TAX and TRADE. I'm not to go into all of the ways that the Data was Corrupted we all know about that, I just want to know what the World Governments are going to do about it? These Crooks need to go to Jail.
CO2 is Good, but other pollutants definitely need to be controlled, let's concentrate on reducing the emissions a that are causing the problems around the World, that would be an idea.
Has anyone heard anything from/about Mr. Gore lately? I'm wondering where he is? I rather doubt that he & wife are holed up in the `32 room mansion' this winter.
...just curious, I guess. The caretakers are undoubtedly keeping the water pipes open. I wonder how many homeless & poorly sheltered were given sancutary there this month?
I suppose Ophra is comfortable in her place, but there doesn't seem to be the weather at her place as is in the northeast, midwest, south, etc, etc.
So probably not any need to offer over-night lodging there.

It would be nice to leave politics out of it. But "crises" are used by pols for their political ends. When you have a smoking gun such as those thousands of emails (which were an indictment of the scientific community's inability to exchange opposing points of views) it becomes exceedingly difficult to take anyone seriously.
Keep in mind too, political money funds much of these "research" organizations. Think that doesn't play a role?
FireWeatherMet, Carbon Monoxide is a killer not usually CO2! It seems that I've seen that chart before. Take a look at these: Hockey Stick Stuff!
