Gore On Tour

April 28, 2007 @ 09:11

I received this e-mail last night, but the person did not identiify himself.

Fred,
"I went to Al Gore's presentation of Global Warming tonight with my wife at the University of Buffalo's Alumni Arena. Let me tell you, it was even more compelling in person.
He has added up to date data and figures that support it even more.
The other tid bit that most people fail to realize when it comes to this issue is that there was a study done recently in a peer reviewed (meaning scientific literature reviewed by scientific experts) research done on 928 peer reviewed journal articles on Global Warming.
Of those, NONE disputed global warming. They then went through over 1000 articles from newpapers across North America - 53% presented doubt.
The point is, there is absolutely NO doubt amongst the scientific community as to the cause and what is going on with global warming. The only ones putting doubt into peoples minds is the mass media.
When it comes to science, I know who I trust. I trust the scienctists doing the work. If we don't listen to what the scientists are saying then we might as well not bother listening to doctors when we go in for physicals or when we're sick because what the hell do they know.
They are scientists.
Just another side of what everyone is calling the Global Warming debate. The experts aren't debating, non experts are. The ones who should be implementing programs to do something about it (our politicians) need to listen to the scientists.
Global warming will not cost any more to the economies, but what's the cost if the experts are right?"

You cite the study of peer-reviewed papers that was conducted by Naomi Oreskes. Her study essentially boiled down to a keyword search of the abstracts of the articles, with no analysis of the actual articles.

Dr. Benny Peiser replicated the study, and got vastly different results. His results are:

1)Of all 1117 abstracts, only 13 (or 1%) explicitly endorse the 'consensus view'.

2)322 abstracts (or 29%) implicitly accept the 'consensus view' but mainly focus on impact assessments of envisaged global climate change.

3)Less than 10% of the abstracts (89) focus on "mitigation".

4)67 abstracts mainly focus on methodological questions.

5)87 abstracts deal exclusively with paleo-climatological research unrelated to recent climate change.

6)34 abstracts reject or doubt the view that human activities are the main drivers of the "the observed warming over the last 50 years".

7)44 abstracts focus on natural factors of global climate change.

8)470 (or 42%) abstracts include the keywords "global climate change" but do not include any direct or indirect link or reference to human activities, CO2 or greenhouse gas emissions, let alone anthropogenic forcing of recent climate change.

You can find his full results here: http://www.staff.livjm.ac.uk/spsbpeis/Scienceletter.htm

Gore's claim of universal consensus amongst the scientific community is just one of the many falsehoods that he's been spreading since he started his movie dog-and-pony show. There's plenty of dissent, but as soon as the dissenter's speak up, they're labeled "crack-pots" or "Oil company mouthpieces", like Professor Richard Lindzen has been. I love how the foaming-at-the-mouth enviro-zealots imagine they somehow know more about this incredibly complex issue than accredited atmospheric physicists do. I loved this interview with Lindzen (ran in the Post last week, but now unavailable there): http://www.windaction.org/opinions/9148

The whole difference between construction and creation is precisely this: a item constructed is able to be adored just after its constructed; but a thing created is cherished before it exists.

The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a subject constructed can simply be adored right after it is constructed; however a thing created is cherished before it exists.

how bouts we web page moderators delete nonsense comments? There are a few information web pages I browse that allow comments; the comments are so plagued with trolls and crap, I no more bother viewing the comments. Be advised erase the nonsense. Not one person will miss it; similarly slice the tangents people try.
