Poirot, you have apparently achieved what the supposed experts, namely the IPCC, the socalled learned science societies, the government-funded climate researchers, and the environmental lobbyists have been unable to do, i.e. find the empirical scientific evidence that proves the hypothesis that anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are the cause of dangerous global warming.

Do not be shy. Share that evidence with us. Table the scientific papers that document that evidence.

PS IPCC climate models do not qualify as scientific evidence.

Thats exactly how many will feel when they have their eyes opened to the evolution con. That is what turned true science into a religion. Thankfully many have already seen through the fantasy/religion/deceit or whatever else you want to call it.

Yeah Poirot, don't be shy. Table the evidence. Go on, I dare ya.
PS evidence about climate change, supplied by climate scientists, does not qualify as evidence.
(?)
How about this:
Fossil Fuel usage:
coal: 53,000,000 barrels (oil equivalent) every day
oil: 84,000,000 barrels every day
Natural gas: 19,000,000 barrels (oil equivalent) every day.
Total daily: 156,000,000 barrels of oil equivalent converted from an underground resource into pollution, mostly atmospheric, every day.
More than 56,940,000,000 barrels a year, producing 21.3 billion tonnes of CO2, and still growing.
Nah. How could that piddling little amount possibly make a difference?

Good on ya, Runner.
There you go, Hasbeen. Anyone stupid enough to believe in AGW, is also stupid enough to believe in Evolution.
Couldn't agree more.

Hasbeen,

Email - schmeemail....http://climatesight.org/2010/11/17/the-real-story-of-climategate/

"We have studied their arguments and found them wanting......" As if you're some sort of authority on the subject (not).

How's your "maths" on evolution?

You could confirm runner's con theory with your expertise.

Dear Poirot,

Just a small reminder by the economist Tor Hundloe:

"On issues which require radical solutions that are likely
to harm vested economic and political interests,
censorship has always existed. For example in Australia
in 2006, leading climatologists with the country's
pre-eminent public research organisation, CSIRO, were
forbidden by the organisation's management from publicly
discussing the implications of climate change."

"Management was acting on behalf of the government. And
Australia is one of the standout countries in terms of
human development status. In 2006, the Australian Government's
position was to cast doubt on global warming and refuse to
enter into UN agreements such as the Kyoto protocol."

"With the release of the Stern Report on climate change, the
Australian Government's position had changed - yet the Prime
Minister remained half-hearted about a commitment to counter
global warming."

Remember that Galileo was put under house arrest by the Vatican
for saying that the earth moved around the sun. In fact, in
1633 the Church made him recant his theory of the universe.

Little has changed over the years when ignorance and vested
interests are confronted by scientific facts. New ideas, instead
of being welcomed for the opportunities they open up for
the improvement of the human lot, are threats to those
who've become comfortable in their ideologies (religious
or otherwise).

Look at how long its taken for the dangers of tobacco to be
recognised - finally. The Tobacco industry was a powerful
lobby group - but then so are the "smokestack" industries.
