Scientists respond to Gore's warnings of climate catastrophe

"The Inconvenient Truth" is indeed inconvenient to alarmists
By Tom Harris

Questions:

1) Who is the Canada Free Press? What sort of media is it? Where does it get its funding?
2) There is no challenge to the Gore assertion of consensus on human contribution to global warming, one of his central consensus claims.
3) I don't doubt that it's always possible to find critics. One can, of course, find critics of just about any assertion, critics who come to their criticisms from a variety of motives.
4) Most of these challenges assume the assertions are built on one data point. The method of attack is to then to find some flaw in that one data point, a flaw, incidentally, which is almost impossible for a layperson to research. However, the global warming arguments are based on multiple data points.
5) Thus, I read this as simply attack mode, not an attempt to take Gore's arguments seriously.

What do you think?
