Here's the bottom line: every time scientists build a model projecting climate change (or tomorrow's temperature), they use a probability distribution to assign confidence intervals, saying that "with 95% certainty, we can say that the expected temperature will be between X and Y."

To inflate the scare over global warming, the media and the more media-savvy (and dishonest) scientists have only been reporting the Y end of the scale.

The bottom line is that there probably is some amount of anthropogenically caused climate change, but it's nowhere near as dire or catastrophic as you'd think from people who only report worst-case (and improbable) scenarios. Certainly not enough to turn our economy upside-down over.
