Climate-Change Fervor Cools Amid Disputed Science, Defections

Three years after former Vice President Gore won a Nobel Prize for sounding the alarm on climate change and GE joined a coalition of companies pushing for a cap on greenhouse gases, public concern is flagging, along with U.S. and global efforts to mount government responses.

Polls find more Americans questioning whether human activity is leading to climate change, or whether the trend is so dire as to justify reshaping U.S. energy use during an economic slump, as President Barack Obama has proposed. Record snowfalls in the U.S. also are fueling doubts.

Peabody Energy Corp., the biggest U.S. coal company, said in a court challenge Feb. 12 that the Obama administration's Environmental Protection Agency relied on flawed science by the UN panel in its decision last year to regulate carbon-dioxide emissions.

Let's not wreck the US and the global economy based on clearly dubious "data".

Wait till the first good warm front hits this spring.

GE is now pushing for all med records to be federally data-based. I watched the first commercial today. GE and the Marxists are one in the same.

Global warming scientists in a highly unusual move finally admitted that the reason they will not be able to produce their data is because their dog Fido ate it.

How stupid are you people? We told you the weather would change and it did. If you weren’t so stupid you would understand.

The religion of global warming has reached the point of stupidity. Every time they get pushed on one of their claims they can not produce the research and then they admit that the claim was not researched at all. Then on to the next fantasy and the same thing happens again and again.
Science has standards or it is not science. There is nothing about Global warming that qualifies as science. This whole thing has been nothing more than a propaganda campaign to make Al Gore and his buddies a bundle of money.
It's over, it is done. The truth is coming out bit by bit but they have been exposed as liars and scam artists. The problem is that the people who have been scammed do not want to admit how stupid they have been so they must keep pretending that all of this climate change crap is still real and true. It is the same reason that victims of other scam artists won't go to the police and expose the crime. The do not want to admit their own stupidity.

I thought it said, “Defecations,” which is, of course, what AGW is made of.

Now fraud charges should be filed.

Looking for Gore to be frog-walked to a prison cell in the future... IF justice is to be done.

“The science has not changed” said former Dem senator Tim Wirth. “Disregard the money I’m stuffing in my pockets from heading this phony U.N. commission on climate change.

[Grunthor]

Three years after former Vice President Gore won a Nobel Prize for sounding the alarm on climate change and GE joined a coalition of companies pushing for a cap on greenhouse gases, the entire episode has be proven a fraud.

I look forward to seeing Gore frog marched off to prison.

I look forward to seeing Gore frog marched off to prison.

Sorry. The cells are all full of petty thieves. No room for those who have stolen billions through fraud like Gore has.

Put him up with Bernie Madoff. They can pass the time lying to each other.
