400 Scientists: Man-made global warming a myth
The Democrats will HATE this.

"Even some in the establishment media now appear to be taking notice of the growing number of skeptical scientists. In October, the Washington Post Staff Writer Juliet Eilperin conceded the obvious, writing that climate skeptics "appear to be expanding rather than shrinking." Many scientists from around the world have dubbed 2007 as the year man-made global warming fears “bites the dust.” (LINK)
This blockbuster Senate report lists the scientists by name, country of residence, and academic/institutional affiliation. It also features their own words, biographies, and weblinks to their peer reviewed studies and original source materials as gathered from public statements, various news outlets, and websites in 2007. This new “consensus busters” report is poised to redefine the debate."

Keeping the environment safe and beautiful is important. However, enacting regulations that will push us back to the stone age isn't...unless you're Al Gore. Environmentalists like Gore and, unfortunately, the USD Dems, typically turn a blind eye to the developing nations like China, which builds, on average,
one new coal power plant each week.. Instead, they focus their energies on the United States, disparaging it for its emissions. I hope that this inequality will be remedied, and that environmentalists will realize that we're on the right path while developing nations aren't..

Just because there are still people who believe the Earth is flat - that doesn't make it so.
"Scientists" can become incredibly biased when their paychecks start to get into the 6 figures.
I would make you a bet Matt that these 'global warming isn't real' "scientists" are all on the payrolls of oil companies, globalized industrial organizations and/or somehow linked to corporate interests and lobbies.
Amongst REAL scientists - that is scientists NOT in the employ of CORPORATE OIL INTERESTES - there is no longer any debate that global warming is very real and has been for the most part been caused by the emission of carbon dioxide from petro-chemical (oil) combustion.
You can certainly maintain your denial of reality though if you want Matt and join those skeptics who say that if you keep sailing west you'll eventually sail right off the edge of the world - but some of the rest of us actually KNOW some sailors who have already sailed around the globe and they didn't fall off the edge.
Global warming is an observable phenomenon and the primary cause has been clearly identified as man-made.

Yeah, Douglas, and Halliburton is in league with the Bilderburg Group in training monkeys to assassinate Gloria Steinem.
Your trite conspiracy-theory-esque platitudes don't apply to every situation. Sometimes, there is a perfectly rational explanation.
Maybe you'd also like to comment on the markedly left-leaning politics of those scientists avidly endorsing the idea of man-made global warming?
Or would that be too rational?
Also, you make some broad claims. Back them up with URLs.

You can't be serious?
Of course I can back them up with URL's. There's.... just so many... where to start?

Here's the first delivery of a million dozen URL's....
Man's effect on the global climate is probably one of the most thoroughly studied issues in modern history. There are literally millions of highly reputable and distinguished documented sources which prove an 'inconvenient' correlation between man's carbon consumption and global climate instability beyond the shadow of a foggiest doubt.
The only people I can find who aren't willing to accept this harsh reality are pundits on Pro-Oil Industry payrolls and a few uninformed young Republicans.

Only about a third of those links are valid. The other are simply apologists.
I didn't want every link you could find to corroborate global warming. I wanted links backing up your claim that those 400 scientists are on the payroll of oil companies or the Bilderburg Group, or whichever organization the conspiracy is about.
