I do not believe that carbon emissions contribute much to changes in the climate. Nor do I believe that mankind "is responsible" for bad weather, climate trends, etc. But I do believe that we need to develop other sources of energy other than fossil fuels and to preserve as much of our resources as is economically feasible.

That said, if I were a proponent of AGW, rather than downplay or try to explain their actions away, I would be furious at the scientist/researchers/media/politicians who are part of this fraud. The damage to the environmental movement over this is going to be hard to recover from. Serious environmental issues are now likely to be dismissed or flat-out disbelieved.

How many “environmentalists” do you believe are more concerned about the “erf” and the environment

than they are concerned about promoting a global socialist agenda?

In other words, they won’t be really mad about this except for the fact that “they were THIS close”...
