Professor Bob Carter of the Marine Geophysical Laboratory at James Cook University, in Australia gives what, for many Canadians, is a surprising assessment: "Gore's circumstantial arguments are so weak that they are pathetic. It is simply incredible that they, and his film, are commanding public attention."

But surely Carter is merely part of what most people regard as a tiny cadre of "climate change skeptics" who disagree with the "vast majority of scientists" Gore cites?

No; Carter is one of hundreds of highly qualified non-governmental, non-industry, non-lobby group climate experts who contest the hypothesis that human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing significant global climate change. "Climate experts" is the operative term here. Why? Because what Gore's "majority of scientists" think is immaterial when only a very small fraction of them actually work in the climate field.

Re: more on gore...
 

Appearing before the Commons Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development last year, Carleton University paleoclimatologist Professor Tim Patterson testified, "There is no meaningful correlation between CO2 levels and Earth's temperature over this [geologic] time frame. In fact, when CO2 levels were over ten times higher than they are now, about 450 million years ago, the planet was in the depths of the absolute coldest period in the last half billion years." Patterson asked the committee, "On the basis of this evidence, how could anyone still believe that the recent relatively small increase in CO2 levels would be the major cause of the past century's modest warming?"

Re: more on gore...
 

Carter does not pull his punches about Gore's activism, "The man is an embarrassment to US science and its many fine practitioners, a lot of whom know (but feel unable to state publicly) that his propaganda crusade is mostly based on junk science."

He's not a pinko. That's one of the founders of greenpeace who is now vehemently Anti-greenpeace.

He is a good guy and a moral guy. He doesn't push an agenda outside of science.

His stance on global warming is: There is no doubt CO2 levels have doubled since the industrial revolution. There is barely any doubt that it is anthroprogenic (MAN CAUSED YOU ILLITERATES), there is some doubt on whether or not the earth is warming, there is severe doubt that the warming is anthroprogenic, and there is EXTREME doubt that warming is a bad thing. Both poles were tropical not too long ago.

Re: more on gore...
 

oh yeah, and the CO2 level is currently 200+ ppm

it was 100 ppm before industrial revolution.

The point during which earth experienced the most forms and most diverse forms of life, had an atmospheric CO2 level of 2000+ ppm

didn't hear it dude.

Re: more on gore...
 

I saw some research during one of my geology classes a few semesters ago that show that for the past X years (thousands, maybe ten-thousands... can't remember) the overall temperature trend has been going downward. There are upward spikes here and there, of course. I may try to see about finding the binder that had all that stuff in it.

Re: more on gore...
 

Right now we're in what is termed an Interglacial period. Like in between ice ages. These people who think we can somehow affect climate change are bonkers.
