John Bennetts brings to mind Lyndall Ryan, the historian who was confronted with her references being incorrect or non existent. She said that she still stood by her conclusions, despite her “facts” being disproven.

Just give us the reference to the science which has demonstrated any measurable effect of human emissions on climate, John, and you will redeem yourself for the nonsense you have posted.

A specific reference, John, not another nonsense assertion like “thousands of scientists”. Let us have a specific reference to just one.

CO2 has been increasing as a trace gas in the atmosphere for the past 14 years, with no increase in global temperature. Should the role of CO2 in global warming not be reconsidered?

Curmudgeon’s work was published a couple of years ago: ”A Guide to Climate Change Lunacy”. You should read it and disabuse yourself of your ridiculous errors.

There is no Nobel Prize for telling the truth. They are awarded to liars like Al Gore and the IPCC.

Rhosty;” Many Himalayas communities are almost totally reliant on glacial melt water for all their drinking and agricultural needs, and at the present rate of melt, it will be gone inside twenty years?"

Have you not heard of Glaciergate? ” IPCC has been forced to back down over a claim that some Himalayan glaciers would probably disappear by 2035.”

popnperish: You are aware that you are quoting Mann the Climategate miscreant, are you? Your credibility is nil.

Oh dear, what will it take to make you see the light?
Maybe the sea rising over your favourite beach or a cyclone devastating Sydney?
It will happen now we are past the tipping point, but you just keep saying to yourself "it can't happen" and maybe it will go away.

Look, where have you been for the past two decades? The global warming scare story is basically past its peak. The real problem that scientists such as Hansen and Manne face, who have both staked their careers on this, is that their audiences are falling away and once willing listeners are becoming sceptical. This has nothing to do with denial, as you seem to want to believe, but the fact that this story is following the same trajectory as the others - Y2K, acid rain, bird flu. Sooner or later the doomsters have to show some results, or people move on.

popnperish refers to Muller; that's amusing:

Muller is discredited and unpublished and has failed peer review.

And sarnian with his "tipping points".

The hysteria of AGW believers knows no limits; the world is going to end they wail and like Toffler's Future Shock sufferers desperately want to control and prevent the inevitable change that NATURE offers.

Poirot Desmogblog is known for its attempts to discredit non-believers on the grounds of supposed 'character' issues rather than disagreements over facts. Most of its claims are alarmist, trivial or in this case an outright lie.

Ball has answered this question on numerous occasions:

Strangely they did not complain about the qualifications of the IPCC Head Scientist Rajendra Pachauri who has no environmental science qualifications at all yet presided over the IPCC decisions for some years.

A little hypocritical one might say?

Popnperish. On behalf of Snowman-, Professor Richard Muller even has the other warmista (Mann etc) gertting as much distance from him as they can. Let's wait and see if he can get this latest paper published will we? He had little luck with his previous attempt. Without wishing to denigrate the good man, the image 'show pony' springs to mind.
