You just can't please some people.
runner,
the ratings ramblings are just pointless academic gobbledegook. Have any such surveys ever been conducted among everyday thinking people instead of Uni campuses ?

If Malcolm Turnbull had resorted to following the rules of evidence and carried out due diligence when he was environment minister, he would have found that the "arguments from authority of the IPCC, CSIRO and BOM, etc" were not supported by factual scientific evidence. He since has had ample time in Opposition to review the facts, but instead chooses to maintain his stubborn politically correct position, assumably for promoting his 'progressive' image.

Raycom,

It's endlessly fascinating day after day listening to the rants of "non-scientists" informing us that they understand "the factual scientific evidence" so much better than the "scientists".

Which "facts" did you have in mind for Turnbull to review?

@Poirot: "Which "facts" did you have in mind for Turnbull to review?"

Well, he could start with these peer-reviewed papers:

Holding a particular opinion on AGW is reasonable: pretending there is no contrary evidence is fanaticism. It's getting a little tiresome by now.

Jon J,

Your linked site draws its references from "Popular Technology Forum"...."most of the links you see here were collected by them and used with their permission."

Popular Technology is choc-o-bloc full of material from the usual denialist/skeptic suspects. - Heartland, Marshall Institute, Joanne Nova, David Evans, etc.

Next.....

Poirot, I don't know of a single person who claims to understand the science better than the scientists.

What any thinking person, with enough math to understand does claim, is to be no longer fooled by the activists in scientist clothing, payed by the UN, & some governments to promote a cause using this fraud.

We have studied their arguments, & found them wanting. If you have not read the Email record of their duplicity in climate gate 1 & 2, do so, then tell us you don't have some doubts.

I am disgusted with myself that for years I took the word of these con men as gospel.

I am even more disgusted with our academics, many of whom must know the whole thing is a con, who don't come forward & say so.
