Read Michael Crichton’s book State of fear and he explains it all.
In the book, the environmentalists conspired to change the phrase global warming to the phrase climate change.
I laughed.
Who could be so foolish and so stupid as to believe that if the temperature goes up or the temperature goes down either way it must be climate change and therefore it is a bad thing.
Climate changedoesn’t happen every day? Isn’t it called the weather?
Anyway, read the bookI strongly recommend It

The environmental fanatics have given scientists a worse reputation than used car salesmen.

Judging from this excerpt -- "few doubt", "greenhouse gas", "fossil fuels" -- obviously this guy is just another shill, but trying to hide behind a pretext of objectivity. There hasn't been ad hominem attacks on both sides as the writer claims, there has been a continuous structured scientific response to the political fiction (and ad hominem attacks) the global warming demagogues have tried to shove down everyone's throats as if it were drawn from the sciences. Global warming / AGW is entirely political in origin, has no science to back it up, never has had, and never will have, because it is a political scam, and has as a goal the establishment of a single party state and dismantling of our liberties and Constitution. Countries which wish to promote the agenda need to be treated as the pariah nations that they are.
Thanks neverdem, you're on a roll!

In last weeks column, I lamented the devolution of the climate debate into dueling ad hominem attacks, which has...An Ad Hominem attack would be: 'Al Gore is a democrat, so therefore he can't claim global warming is real...'
However, 'Al Gore stands to profit from the furthering of AGW so his arguments are tainted and, likely false or exaggerated' is not ad hominem.

Skeptics argue that, like a police department that locks on a single suspect early in a crime investigation and fails to adequately investigate any other suspects, many climate scientists locked in early on to CO2 as the primary culprit for this warming, to the exclusion of many other possible causes.He acts like it's honest hastiness that led to pinning the blame on anthropogenic CO2 as the culprit (yes I realize police/prosecutors sometimes do this for evil ends too). Had they found the trend to be driven by something NOT caused by humans this would have been merely another sky-is-falling scientific boondoggle accompanied by much hand-wringing and gnashing of teeth among those who believed it, followed by it falling from the radar with no permanent effect. There's no money or power over other people's lives to be gained in that scenario.
