Dr. Richard Lindzen words (professor in atmospheric science at MIT) leave a chilling effect on the greenhouse controversy:

"The impact on temperature per unit carbon dioxide goes down, not up, with increasing CO2. The role of anthropogenic greenhouse gases is not directly related to the emissions rate or even CO2 levels, which is what the legislation is hitting on, but rather to the impact of these gases on the greenhouse effect. The real signature of greenhouse warming is not surface temperature but temperature in the middle of the troposphere, about five kilometers. And that is going up even slower than the temperature at the surface."
