How much is "political" science? Are they giving adequate weight to the fact that the earth has been warming ever since the last ice age? And that they're only looking at a small slice in time? Kind of like looking at the stock market over the past 18 months and trying to extrapolate years, maybe decades, or even hundreds of years in either direction? Why and how are those "scientists" so much more accurate than all the stock analysts we follow daily? How about the fact that something "big" could occur again to create another ice age? e.g. a world-wide cloud created by a volcanic eruption or impact of an object from space like the one that killed the dinosaurs? Perhaps they would like to see a massive war, or starvation to reduce the "...human activity [is] having a discernible effect on the environment, ..."? Just a few of many things to consider...

Climatic Climate Changes caused by unruly, self-directed, disorganized humans. Truth, half Truth, Lie? Who knows? Who will ever know completely? But you can know the source: Cambridge University Press on behalf of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was set up jointly by the United Nations Environment Programme and the World Meteorological Organisation in 1988 to provide an authoritative, international consensus of scientific opinion on climate change.
