Fortunately, there are always a few scientists, like Lomborg, who refuse to be silenced. We owe them a tremendous debt of gratitude.

Yes we do. And another one of the leading skeptics, John Daly creator of the website 'Still Waiting for Greenhouse', is one we owe gratitute to, who passed away about a week ago.

Amazing how in just over twenty years (1970's) we go from creating another "Ice Age", to creating a "Greenhouse". Our emissions are much lower than in the 70's too. Like we say here in the south: Somethin' just ain't right here...

"Tracking the world's average temperature from the late 19th century, people in the 1930s realized there had been a pronounced warming. During the 1960s, scientists found that over the past couple of decades the trend had shifted to cooling. Many scientists predicted a continued and prolonged cooling, perhaps a phase of a long natural cycle or perhaps caused by human activities. Others insisted that humanity's emission of gases would bring warming over the long run. In the late 1970s, this group's views became predominant. By the late 1980s, it was plain that the cooling spell, whose cause remained mysterious, had been a temporary distraction. For whatever reason, unprecedented global warming was underway."

It would seem a global cooling dance, similar to Indian rain dances, would be the logical step to stopping global warming.

Michael Crichton gave a fantastic speech on junk science and 'global warming'. It's a bit long, but a real keeper.

Left out the part about the US being a net CO2 absorber, not emitter. The biggest CO2 generators are China and India, but Kyoto didn't require them to do anything.
