There are many scientists stating that man made CO2 is not causing the global warming but is a result of global warming from other causes, whatever they are. That BBC Video showed a scientist who wanted his name off the IPCC report because he did not agree with it. In fact he had to threaten legal action to get them to remove his name.

Immanuel, I’ve thought about Global Warming. That is why I disagree with the so-called “vast majority of the science community”. I doubt that the majority is all that vast. I, unlike the “vast majority of the science community”, do not get to write my own job description and then get Governments to finance my “work”. It’s politics and fear mongering. In the view of the “vast majority of the science community” mankind of today is causing Global Warming. Yet, 18,000 or so years ago when there were few humanoids populating Earth, that little ice sheet that covered most of North America was a “natural variation” as was the melting of the ice over a period of time. Millions of years before that, when no humanoids apparently roamed North America or Earth for that matter, what is now known as Alberta (Canada) was tropical. As evidence, I offer our resources of natural gas, oil and the tar sands. Let’s not forget the evidence of dinosaurs that roamed this area. tyrrellmuseum.com Here is an interesting question that I oft consider, but cannot answer: What is the “Natural Climate” for Alberta? Three to six or more months of winter (snow cover) and a couple months of summer, 2,000 feet of ice, tropical, or some other scenario? How would the so-called “vast majority of the science community” answer that? Id
