This is also great one.
The IPCC Carbon Dioxide Predictions are Erroneous

Introduction: The global warming chain of hypothesis

The global warming theory can be split into the following chain of hypotheses:

H1: The anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide, will
increase to a great extent in the future if no global limitation agreements are realized.

H2: As a result of H1, the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide will increase
rapidly as about half of the emitted carbon will stay in the atmosphere.

H3: The direct radiative influence of increased atmospheric carbon dioxide
concentration is minute, but water vapour and clouds will gain the influence by
positive feedback mechanisms, thus causing significant global warming.

H4: The global warming is so large that it becomes detrimental for the nature and for
human beings.

If all the hypotheses, H1+H2+H3+H4 are true, there is ground for concern. If one of the hypotheses is
rejected, there are no environmental reasons for carbon dioxide emission limitations.

H1: Exaggeration from the very beginning

there are lots of figures
