Taking one measurement in one location and claiming that it represents all locations defies all the rules of statistics. Scientists have been measuring temperatures all over the world for a very long time and the trend upwards is very clear. In addition, the loss of ice in the arctic is breaking new records every year. So how do you explain that? Is it a conspiracy theory?

Or could it be that the counter-arguments are being funded by the oil companies?

Global Warming is a red herring BUT the issues are actually parallel, so IMHO a lot of what they're trying to do is beneficial. The environment, via Ppollution and biodiversity loss need to be addressed very quickly... as do the degradation of our food supply (not really separate from our environment).

Thanks are decaying very quickly now as is chronicled by watching childhood maladies.
