Science of the new millennium......
It all highlights that “consensus” does not mean right, factual, nor even accurate.
It was never an appropriate term to promote, no matter if it were even true (which it isn’t, but that’s beside my point here).
Nearly all of the initial 17,100 scientist signers have technical training suitable for the evaluation of the relevant research data, and many are trained in related fields. In addition to these 17,100, approximately 2,400 individuals have signed the petition who are trained in fields other than science or whose field of specialization was not specified on their returned petition.

Global Warming Petition
We urge the United States government to reject the global warming agreement that was written in Kyoto, Japan in December, 1997, and any other similar proposals. The proposed limits on greenhouse gases would harm the environment, hinder the advance of science and technology, and damage the health and welfare of mankind.
There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gasses is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.

I do look forward to relishing the day when the true consensus will be about what a presumptive idiot Al Gore has been proven to be ....
But wait, isn’t he a nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize? HA!

Why not have these deniers do a “minority report” ?

Ping me if you find one I've missed.
Love it, love it, love it! Thanks for posting this!
In the fifteenth century, the consensus was that the earth was flat and was the center of the universe.

Good post.
The concensus might be wrong. Bradbury demonstrated that in his recent interview. Concensus is most safely assumed to be wrong most of the time.

It is truly impossible to know if this man is truly retarded, or simply impervious to reality (is there a difference?).
When I first heard of him he was simply another fancy suit in Washington and, by outward appearances, normal enough.
Since his campaigning in 1991, and the following 16 years, he is living proof that the mental ADA laws should be revisited...
As climatic conditions deteriorated, a lethal mix of misfortunes descended on a growing European population. Crops failed and cattle perished by diseases caused by abnormal weather. Famine followed famine bringing epidemics in their train, bread riots and general disorder brought fear and distrust.Witchcraft accusations soared, as people accused their neighbors of fabricating bad weather. Lutheran orthodoxy called the cold and deep snowfall on Leipzig in 1562 a sign of God's wrath at human sin, but the church's bulwark against accusations of witchcraft began to crumble when climatic shifts caused poor harvests, food dearths, and cattle diseases.
Sixty three women were burned to death as witches in the small town of Wisensteig in Germany in 1563 at a time of intense debate over the authority of God over the weather. Witch panics erupted periodically after the 1560's. Between 1580 and 1620, more than 1,000 people were burned to death for witchcraft in the Bern region alone.
Witchcraft accusations reached a height in England and France in the severe weather years of 1587 and 1588. Almost invariably, a frenzy of prosecutions coincided with the coldest and most difficult years of the Little Ice Age, when people demanded the eradication of the witches they held responsible for their misfortunes.

And today it is we, Global Warming deniers from America, Australia and other non-Kyoto conforming countries who are their witches.
Has this guy put his essays together into a book or something? Seems it would look good in the bookstore next to “Earth in the Lurch” or any other of L. Ron Gore’s fiction-based histories.
