au67 states, "Many conservatives have contended for many years that global warming is one of the greatest hoaxes of modern times."
Please be sure to include scientists in the contention.
The truth (inconvenient?) is that there IS NOT a consensus among scientists that there is anthropogenic global warming (AGW). As a scientist (geophysicist and registered professional geologist in Tennessee and Alabama), I DEMAND that the scientific method, as introduced in junior high science classes, be allowed to function in the AGW debate. This process requires that a theory be debated in the open, among peers... and that other scientists have access to the supporting data and methods. Data must be both valid and reliable, and results must be reproducible. To date, this has not happened. I’m sure, from the recent exposure via the hacked emails, that we all understand why we “deniers” had to be kept from the data and models.
There IS a consensus among scientists that there is global climate change. The Earth presents millions of years of evidence to support cyclical changes in global climate. For example, the Chesapeake Bay disappears and reappears as the Atlantic Ocean transgresses and regresses with the cycles between ice and tropical global climate swings.
