Scientist Gathering Challenges Gore 'Science'

WorldNetDaily reports on the gathering of more than 100 scientists at the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change.

Environmental scientist S. Fred Singer and others gathered to shatter Al Gore's myth that humanity is causing global warming.

At the meeting, Singer presented a 40-page report on a study conducted over the past three years by the Nongovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The findings of the study are reflected in the title of the report: "Nature, Not Human Activity, Rules the Climate." A full copy of the report can be found at the Heartland Institute.

The report accepts that warming has occurred, but asks the all-important question: "How much is due to anthropogenic causes?" It points out that evidence of warming is not evidence that warming is man-caused. It also points out that the IPCC’s "hockey-stick" temperature analysis, widely cited as "proof" of man-made global warming, has been discredited. Also cited are warming and cooling trends which have occurred over the past 1,000 years.

Projections by computer models have also failed to hold up in the real world.

Ironically, the report says any modest warming is likely to produce positive economic benefits, not the disaster predicted by Al Gore.

The final word:

"Global warming is attributable to natural causes," Singer told WND, "so in that sense global warming is unstoppable, regardless what measures Al Gore or the U.N. want to impose on us with new international governmental regulations."

We should always be wary when business-loathing, Western-culture-hating environmental-extremist socialists come to us crying "The sky is falling."

Even a broken clock is right twice a day, but any "evidence" they present should be examined with a wary eye and their motives in mind.
