Update: More Than 700 International Scientists Dissent Over Man-Made Global Warming Claims

Prominent Japanese Geologist Dr. Shigenori Maruyama, a professor at the Tokyo Institute of Technology’s Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences who has authored more than 125 scientific publications, said in March 2009 that “there was widespread skepticism among his colleagues about the IPCC's fourth and latest assessment report that most of the observed global temperature increase since the mid-20th century ‘is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations.” Maruyama noted that when this question was raised at a Japan Geoscience Union symposium last year, ‘the result showed 90 per cent of the participants do not believe the IPCC report.” [Also See: The prestigious International Geological Congress, dubbed the geologists' equivalent of the Olympic Games, was held in Norway in August 2008 and prominently featured the voices of scientists skeptical of man-made global warming fears. [ See: Skeptical scientists overwhelm conference: '2/3 of presenters and question-askers were hostile to, even dismissive of, the UN IPCC' & see full reports here & here –More analyses of recent developments see report’s introduction here. ]

“I do not find the supposed scientific consensus among my colleagues,” noted Earth Scientist Dr. Javier Cuadros on March 3, 2009. Cuadros, of the UK Natural History Museum, specializes in Clay Mineralogy and has published more than 30 scientific papers.

THREE senior Japanese scientists separately engaged in climate-change research have strongly questioned the validity of the man-made global-warming model that underpins the drive by the UN and most developed-nation governments to curb greenhouse gas emissions. "I believe the anthropogenic (man-made) effect for climate change is still only one of the hypotheses to explain the variability of climate," Kanya Kusano told The Weekend Australian. It could take 10 to 20 years more research to prove or disprove the theory of anthropogenic climate change, said Dr Kusano, a research group leader with the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science's Earth Simulator project. "Before anyone noticed, this hypothesis has been substituted for truth," writes Shunichi Akasofu, founding director of the University of Alaska's International Arctic Research Centre.

I love the polite way this Japanese scientist says, in effect, that the global warming gang has been seriously dishonest: "Before anyone noticed, this hypothesis has been substituted for truth."

Believe me, we noticed that some people have been saying that an extremely shaky hypothesis is truth. Later in this decade, high prices of fossil fuels will drive the alternative energy industry forward instead of the man-made global warming hoax.

Thanx for the ping Army Air Corps !

Legions of Anthropogenic Global Warming Skeptics

Global Warming Petition Project, also known as the Oregon Project, has been signed to date by 31,487 American scientists, including 9,029 with PhDs, and nearly 4,000 with specific training in atmospheric, earth, and environmental sciences. All signers have the necessary training in physics, chemistry, and mathematics to understand and evaluate the scientific data relevant to the human-caused global warming hypothesis and to the effects of human activities upon environmental quality.
Statement by Atmospheric Scientists on Greenhouse Warming signed by 47 scientists against the highly uncertain scientific theories being used to support global environmental regulations in anticipation of the Earth Summit (Brazil 1992). FEBRUARY 27, 1992
THE LEIPZIG DECLARATION ON GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE originally a prebuttal to the 1997 Kyoto Climate Treaty Conference. It has 105 signatories. (1995, 1997, revised 2005)
The CATO Institute Climate Change Ad signed by 115 scientists, mostly PhDs. Ad in pdf form. March 30, 2009
141 Scientists Sign Letter Sent to UN Secretary-General Questioning Global Warming stating that the science behind anthropogenic global warming is anything but "settled". December 8, 2009
U. S. Senate Minority Report: More Than 700 International Scientists Dissent Over Man-Made Global Warming Claim Over 700 dissenting scientists to date from around the globe challenged man-made global warming claims made by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and former Vice President Al Gore. Initially released December 2007. UPDATE: 1000 signatories as of 8 Dec 10.
Manhattan Declaration on Climate Change approximately 1000 endorsers of the International Climate Science Coalition, March 2-4, 2008.
Memorandum submitted by the Institute of Physics The Institute of Physics, with a worldwide membership of over 36,000, has submitted a memorandum to the U.K. Parliament in which they excoriate the CRU as an affront to the integrity of science, as well as decry the corrupt peer review process in climatology that has evolved to support the anthropogenic global warming fraud. February 2010
More than 60 German Scientists Dissent Over Global Warming Claims in an open letter to German Chancellor. The more than 60 signers of the letter include several United Nations IPCC scientists. The scientists declared that global warming has become a “pseudo religion” and they noted that rising CO2 has “had no measurable effect” on temperatures. The German scientists, also wrote that the “UN IPCC has lost its scientific credibility." August 9, 2009

Actually, it's a report that has been updated since 2007, when 400 dissenting scientists have gone public, and by 2009 had 700 or so dissenters, and abruptly stopped updating that data.

Here is a current (April 2011) list of Inhofe's expose's.

There's quite a few nuggets all through these pages, enough to strongly suggest Obama immediately began efforts to impose onerous Cap'n trade taxes regardless of what the science ~ indeed, he claims to have a judge's order to proceed, and financials/Market Makers such as Knight Trading were ramping up over a year ago.
