Gore-bal Warming Exposed

"The Inconvenient Truth" is indeed inconvenient to alarmists
By Tom Harris


"Professor Bob Carter of the Marine Geophysical Laboratory at James Cook University, in Australia gives what, for many Canadians, is a surprising assessment: "Gore's circumstantial arguments are so weak that they are pathetic. It is simply incredible that they, and his film, are commanding public attention."
But surely Carter is merely part of what most people regard as a tiny cadre of "climate change skeptics" who disagree with the "vast majority of scientists" Gore cites?

No; Carter is one of hundreds of highly qualified non-governmental, non-industry, non-lobby group climate experts who contest the hypothesis that human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing significant global climate change. "Climate experts" is the operative term here. Why? Because what Gore's "majority of scientists" think is immaterial when only a very small fraction of them actually work in the climate field."

Most everyone accepts the global warming idea, and the fact that humans cause it and can correct it. Disagree, and they presume you're ignorant. But the more scientists know about the subject, the less certain they are about global warming and "weather" or not it is caused by the CO2 increase. Click through to read the whole article.
