Climate science is a physical science, just like physics. Many of the people who call themselves climate scientists are actually physicists.

The problem is with people cherry-picking data.

When you look at a correlation 150 years old and ignore the history of the last 500 million years, you're being dishonest. When every single one of your top models fails to predict a 17 year trend and you say "Oh 17 years is cherry-picking, it's better to look at 150 out of the 3.5 billion. That gives you a better idea of what's happening" then your hypothesis was wrong and you're being dishonest.

That's science though. They formulated a hypothesis and their predictions failed. But they should have reformulated a new hypothesis, instead of making AR after AR for the IPCC, repeating the same lies and half-truths and erasing the same facts.

Does this pic make CO2 look like a primary climate forcing? No. And it's because it's not.

Why you fucking lying little piece of shit.

B-B-B-UT... MUH CONSENSUS!!!

>study a gigantic, chaotic (and thefore unpredictable, at least right now) system
>attempt to make predictions about it
>call yourself a scientist

>all your models predict warming over the past 15 years
>warming doesn't happen
>all of your models fail
>resort to claiming consensus because hey, technically there's a consensus if you're all completely wrong

You alarmists are on the EXACT same level as those right wing retards who claim the planet hasn't warmed at all in the past 150 years. Exact same level of willful ignorance in the face of endless, overwhelming, pounding-you-in-the-throat evidence.

There's no meaningful correlation between CO2 and temperature going back 500 million years. This pic destroys you.

And that site is retarded. Much decrying of the Canadian oil sands is a dead give away that the source is ignorant.

CO2 is 0.038% of the atmosphere. Of that 0.038%, after 250 years of industrialization, only 5% is man made. Canada is responsible for 2% of the world's emissions and the oil sands are just 5% of Canada's total emissions. That brings the oil sands' life time contribution to 0.0000019% of an atmosphere's worth of CO2.

And believe it or not there are many legitimate points that have gone unexplained by the AGW side. This site tries to bring down every single one fo them. Whoever is responsible for it is a complete idiot.
