The scientific community has a collective opinion about global Warming. And whoes opinion do you think trumps theirs? If they have such a "collective opinion" why do we have 700 scientists coming out and expressing dissent? The over 700 dissenting scientists are now more than 13 times the number of UN scientists (52) who authored the media-hyped IPCC 2007 Summary for Policymakers. The 59 additional scientists hail from all over the world, including Japan, Italy, UK, Czech Republic, Canada, Netherlands, the U.S. and many are affiliated with prestigious institutions including, NASA, U.S. Navy, U.S. Defense Department, Energy Department, U.S. Air Force, the Philosophical Society of Washington (the oldest scientific society in Washington), Princeton University, Tulane University, American University, Oregon State University, U.S. Naval Academy and EPA. epw.senate.gov 13 TIMES the number of UN scientists who authored that IPCC report, Mindmeld!!! And about this one?: When this question was raised at a Japan Geoscience Union symposium last year, he said, "the result showed 90 per cent of the participants do not believe the IPCC report". theaustralian.news.com.au Even if it were only a one to one ratio, it would certainly give you the right to suggest there was a "collective opinion" concurring with global warming.
