My God.........these alarmists think there are no special interests tied to renewable energy!!
My god! These deniers think there are no special interests tied to the massive fossil fuel industry!
We know that there are...which is why we concentrate on observed, measured, quantified, empirical data that supports the claims made in the AGW hypothesis...there is none to be found so that would lead one to believe that the climate science side of the argument is full of shit.
[
I'm going to hang on to that quote. For the several years I've been debating this topic, I have yet to see a denier accept that the Fossil Fuel Industry has reason to attempt to affect this debate. Every scientist on the planet will endanger his entire career to get another grant, but Exxon-Mobil had the intentions of angels when it funded every denier crackpot on the face of the planet.
far more special interest money flows into climate science than does the fossil fuel industry

HAHAHAHAhahaahaahhaaaahaaaaa......
Human influence on the climate system is clear, and recent anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases are the highest in history. Recent climate changes have had widespread impacts on human and natural systems.
Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, and since the 1950s, many of the observed changes are unprecedented over decades to millennia. The atmosphere and ocean have warmed, the amounts of snow and ice have diminished, and sea level has risen.
Anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions have increased since the pre-industrial era, driven largely by economic and population growth, and are now higher than ever. This has led to atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide that are unprecedented in at least the last 800,000 years. Their effects, together with those of other anthropogenic drivers, have been detected throughout the climate system and are extremely likely to have been the dominant cause of the observed warming since the mid-20th century.
In recent decades, changes in climate have caused impacts on natural and human systems on all continents and across the oceans. Impacts are due to observed climate change, irrespective of its cause, indicating the sensitivity of natural and human systems to changing climate.
Changes in many extreme weather and climate events have been observed since about 1950. Some of these changes have been linked to human influences, including a decrease in cold temperature extremes, an increase in warm temperature extremes, an increase in extreme high sea levels and an increase in the number of heavy precipitation events in a number of regions.
Continued emission of greenhouse gases will cause further warming and long-lasting changes in all components of the climate system, increasing the likelihood of severe, pervasive and irreversible impacts for people and ecosystems. Limiting climate change would require substantial and sustained reductions in greenhouse gas emissions which, together with adaptation, can limit climate change risks.
Cumulative emissions of CO2 largely determine global mean surface warming by the late 21st century and beyond. Projections of greenhouse gas emissions vary over a wide range, depending on both socio-economic development and climate policy.
Surface temperature is projected to rise over the 21st century under all assessed emission scenarios. It is very likely that heat waves will occur more often and last longer, and that extreme precipitation events will become more intense and frequent in many regions. The ocean will continue to warm and acidify, and global mean sea level to rise.
Climate change will amplify existing risks and create new risks for natural and human systems. Risks are unevenly distributed and are generally greater for disadvantaged people and communities in countries at all levels of development.
Many aspects of climate change and associated impacts will continue for centuries, even if anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases are stopped. The risks of abrupt or irreversible changes increase as the magnitude of the warming increases.
Adaptation and mitigation are complementary strategies for reducing and managing the risks of climate change. Substantial emissions reductions over the next few decades can reduce climate risks in the 21st century and beyond, increase prospects for effective adaptation, reduce the costs and challenges of mitigation in the longer term and contribute to climate-resilient pathways for sustainable development.
Effective decision-making to limit climate change and its effects can be informed by a wide range of analytical approaches for evaluating expected risks and benefits, recognizing the importance of governance, ethical dimensions, equity, value judgments, economic assessments and diverse perceptions and responses to risk and uncertainty.
Without additional mitigation efforts beyond those in place today, and even with adaptation, warming by the end of the 21st century will lead to high to very high risk of severe, widespread and irreversible impacts globally (high confidence). Mitigation involves some level of co-benefits and of risks due to adverse side effects, but these risks do not involve the same possibility of severe, widespread and irreversible impacts as risks from climate change, increasing the benefits from near-term mitigation efforts.

Thinks men in big leather chairs with white Persian cats in their lap control the weather.
Then, SID, show us some reputable source that shows more money flowing into "climate science" than the >$10 billion we see flowing into the US petroleum industry annually (and that flowing into US coal, natural gas, LNG and the rest of the world's fossil fuel industries.)
You're the one who made the claim dickweed. How about some evidence backing it up?
That would be the portions of representative government bought and paid for with fossil fuel money to give subsidies and tax breaks to an already extremely profitable industry. I said $10 billion, but I've just recently heard that $38 billion might be a more accurate figure. Do you think you can find $38 billion being put into "climate science" each year SID?

well sure, in a leftist world one isn't allowed to reinvest.That would be the portions of representative government bought and paid for with fossil fuel money to give subsidies and tax breaks to an already extremely profitable industry.

So according to you, there is no special interest money going into the fossil fuel industry.....spending one's own money on one's own interest hardly qualifies as special interest....

"A group of international scientists find that carbon dioxide is a coolant, the calculations in the greenhouse gas theory are wrong and humans are not killing the planet.
It may have taken the Climategate controversy to prompt a growing band of specialist scientists to come forward and work together to help climatologists get themselves out of an almighty mess. But at last we know for sure that the doomsaying equations behind "man-made global warming" were fudged, the physics was misapplied and group thinking perpetuated gross errors.
Yes, the greenhouse effect has now been proven to be a fabrication. That mythical concept called ‘back radiation’ whereby heat was supposed to be recycled in the atmosphere and its effects worsened by the dreaded burning of fossil fuels is contradicted. In reality it’s now been shown that the atmosphere acts like a coolant of Earth’s surface, which, otherwise, would have a temperature of 121 Degrees Celsius, or 394 Kelvin (K)."

How does that work?

Radiation is contradicted?
