Hi koan; Re: "And you think that 97% of atmospheric scientist's overlooked all your information huh?":

97% of atmospheric scientists agree with me on the subjects of those 97% polls: (1) The climate has been getting warmer over the last 200 years. (2) Mankind contributes to recent rise in temperatures.

Your error is in assuming that the above implies a "catastrophe". No.

Let's look at the evidence.

According to you, the planet has been drastically warmed by CO2 over the last 30 years or so. And this will be a big catastrophe for humans.

But by every measure, humans are doing better now than they were 30 years ago.

There is less starvation.
There is more use of energy.
People live longer lives.
Medicine has improved.
Fewer people die in natural disasters.

So if the climate is going against man, the evidence is that man makes progress faster than the climate moves. And so there is no catastrophe.

What's more, you have almost no peer reviewed articles that claim that there is a catastrophe. Instead, 97% of them talk about various levels of warming, not about what consequences there are for humans. And the reason for this is pretty obvious. Humans have been *thriving* in the recent warm weather. We're doing great! You live a life of fear because you're too stupid to understand the literature. You live with boogey-men hiding around corners, a world of superstitious nonsense. And you lost the political fight over CO2. That's why the planet's CO2 production sets new records every year. So sorry, but you failed. Now your grandchildren will have to live the hell that exists in your dreams.
