Yes, the sky is falling. Anybody else notice that as the cold war died down the global warming war heated up? I am sure it is just a coincidence. Funny thing, back in the late 70s and early 80s, scientists were saying that we were headed for an ice age.
Global warming can lead to an ice age.
And, with that, scientists can use just about any "evidence" they want to support their version of GW.
...and I give you.....The Tobacco Institute.
And what happened there? Data was analyzed by independent researches and shown to be a crock of bull. I can pretty much guarantee you that those who put their names to reports that claimed tobacco is not harmful to one's health didn't have much luck finding employment afterwards.
No, I think the point is that "scientists" claimed no harm to you by smoking cigarettes, IIRC...
Coleman is no researcher. Being a good businessman and knowing how to start a tv network does not make one an authority on climatology.
Maybe not. But, I don't think Coleman got to be the founder by flipping burgers at Wendy's. He obviously had to have a background in climate and weather in order to found TWC. No one is making a claim that he's an authority on climatology. But, I think contrary to your belief, he should have an ear when he speaks.
If you want to make such an accusation then I imagine you have a list or at least a rough idea of the people you are claiming fudged these numbers.
How about numbers of your own, Redworm? All you say is "vast majority".
OntheFly provided an article with 22,000 scientists in your opposition. Quite the small number, yes? I think they may have evidence that just because our temp rise rate is similar to pollution doesn't necessarily it's the cause...
The main issue with sea level rise is that it could very likely be much, much more drastic in the coming years if the currents trends continue.
And your graph shows a so called "significant" rise in such a short time frame. This type of thinking will get a running back stuffed in the backfield. All he's seeing is the tiny lane open between the guard and center when he didn't take a gander to his left and right...the linebackers beating the tackles on the block....
Also, if several people including DNSpy has claimed that there hasn't been a rise in water level where he is, then where IS the rise? Last time I stepped in the bathtub (Saturday nights whether I need it or not...HONEST!) the level rose everywhere...not just on certain areas...
