don't you know it digger? it was the scientists of course. and we all know that scientist are never wrong, right? These would be the same scientists who in the 1970's declared we were headed for another ice age? ;D

Hooray! I'm a Master Debater. And all this time you thought you were a cunning linguist.

Nope, that isn't proof. That is an opinion piece in the Chron. Concensus is not science. Confrences are not science. Everything I have read on this is set up to cofirm the thesis rather than to test it. Show us something that uses the proper scientific method.

Everything I have read on this is set up to cofirm the thesis rather than to test it. Show us something that uses the proper scientific method. It is a conference of SCIENTISTS presenting their findings, so yes, this conference is science. Because it was reported in the Chronicle is irrelevant. The conference happened and they are reporting the findings. Stop trying to skirt the issue. Just because you don't want to believe in something when the proof is right in front of your face doesn't mean you can make it not exist. How stubborn are you going to be on this issue before you come around to realize the truth: That humans are accelerating global climate change and it will have horrible repercussions that will affect millions around the world. America is the world's #2 polluter behind China. We must lead the charge to slow down climate change before it's too late.

That seems to be the answer of Conservatives when they can't refute the facts.

That seems to be the answer of Conservatives when they can't refute the facts. You have been refuted time after time after time with verifiable fact in these forums, across a variety of issues. Your typical response when you've been shown up is to disappear for a couple of days and then come back and make like it didn't happen. And still you have the uttter balls to throw that little piece of meat out to the curb, when it is something straight out of your own playbook. It's called Biology 101... CO2 good for green plants, hence the animals that feed on them farther up the food chain. No verifiable evidence outside of computer models to back up the assertion that CO2 is a pollutant. Disagree with me, fine. Don't insult my intelligence.

Don't take this as an insult but your explanation for why CO2 is not a greenhouse gas is incredibly simple. I will leave it to the experts, thousands of published scientists around the world, to figure out what the actual effects of unprecedented levels of CO2 in our atmosphere really are.

No, actually you are not leaving it to the experts. Because experts have already asserted that CO2 does not constitute a large portion of the Global Warming Gases. I have posted the figures on this site from a highly credible source. The man made contribution to total global warming gases is less then 1 percent.
