      Stanley Goddard my parents were two pack a day smokers. My mother could actually circular breath her cigarettes smoke. It left her mouth, flowed up her upper lip and back in her nose.
      I’m not a smoker. There may be no links because the scientists where latterly silenced. I’m not going to research it any further. My parents told me smoking was not good for me, even though they were addicted.

      As instantsurgery said, we don’t know what ignited the big bang (universe). And this isn’t a bad thing. It shows humility and honesty and creates the driving force for scientific discovery. But yes, because we don’t know we can not 100% rule out god as a possibility. However There is no evidence for god, thus no reason to believe is was a god and would be scientifically dishonest to say it was god because there is no evidence. If you still wish to believe it was a god, you may, but please realize that that requires faith. And all the modern conveniences that most of society enjoys were not created by faith. I’m not against religion/faith necessarily, just when it steps outside its realm and interjects itself into science.

      Dr. Scafetta, your paper 'Phenomenological solar contribution to the 1900-2000 global surface warming' is categorized by Cook et al. (2013) as; "Explicitly endorses and quantifies AGW as 50+%"
      Is this an accurate representation of your paper?
      Scafetta: "Cook et al. (2013) is based on a strawman argument because it does not correctly define the IPCC AGW theory, which is NOT that human emissions have contributed 50%+ of the global warming since 1900 but that almost 90-100% of the observed global warming was induced by human emission.
      What my papers say is that the IPCC view is erroneous because about 40-70% of the global warming observed from 1900 to 2000 was induced by the sun. This implies that the true climate sensitivity to CO2 doubling is likely around 1.5 C or less, and that the 21st century projections must be reduced by at least a factor of 2 or more. Of that the sun contributed (more or less) as much as the anthropogenic forcings.
      The "less" claim is based on alternative solar models (e.g. ACRIM instead of PMOD) and also on the observation that part of the observed global warming might be due to urban heat island effect, and not to CO2.
      By using the 50% borderline a lot of so-called "skeptical works" including some of mine are included in their 97%."

      As for the 30,000 scientist petition;
      It is misleading for the signatories to be considered climate scientists or even top researchers in their field, as some suggest. In fact, based on the group’s own numbers, only 12% of the signers have degrees (of any kind) in earth, environmental, or atmospheric science.
      If there is sanity in question here it has to be that of those who refuse to accept the scientific consensus. The science on climate change is solid.

Dr. Soon, your paper 'Polar Bear Population Forecasts: A Public-Policy Forecasting Audit' is categorized by Cook et al. (2013) as having; "No Position on AGW". Is this an accurate representation of your paper? Soon: "I am sure that this rating of no position on AGW by CO2 is nowhere accurate nor correct. Rating our serious auditing paper from just a reading of the abstract or words contained in the title of the paper is surely a bad mistake. Specifically, anyone can easily read the statements in our paper as quoted below: "For example, Soon et al. (2001) found that the current generation of GCMs is unable to meaningfully calculate the effects that additional atmospheric carbon dioxide has on the climate. This is because of the uncertainty about the past and present climate and ignorance about relevant weather and climate processes." Here is at least one of our positions on AGW by CO2: the main tool climate scientists used to confirm or reject their CO2-AGW hypothesis is largely not validated and hence has a very limited role for any diagnosis or even predicting real-world regional impacts for any changes in atmospheric CO2. I hope my scientific views and conclusions are clear to anyone that will spend time reading our papers. Cook et al. (2013) is not the study to read if you want to find out about what we say and conclude in our own scientific works." Any further comment on the Cook et al. (2013) paper?

Not only are you denied your right, your role necessarily as a scientist, to subject a study to falsification, but the mere notion, the intention to do such, results in career suicide....that means, by default, man-made global warming is not science. If it were, there wouldn't be only a "2-3%" of papers with dissenting opinion. Science isn't a goddamn Democracy, and it can't be subjective within a study, but also it can't be subjective in managing the body of allowable studies. 2-3% is a clear indication there is pseudoscience happening. Every single study published has to name it's potential faults, where it could have been improved, and the limitations of the study....in order to yield to falsifiability. 2-3% doesn't cover those weaknesses - 20-30% would still be low.
      If it hit a 30% falsification attempts published and they couldn't do it, maybe...maybe I would say man-made global warming is accurately stated. 97% consensus doesn't make sense scientifically. It makes sense in a political context...maybe..., but definitely not a Scientific context...

That's the only way to approach this, they are not scientists, they cannot actually do the science in order to reach a conclusion, they can't even learn properly what scientists have already done, but they still need to know what is the TL;DR and make decisions based on that.

You say this is possible whether natural or man made. So if a warming planet is occurring, and its completely natural, how do you propose we prevent it warming enough to affect "society"??

    Some good points. Some reflections:
    1) We should not be concerned with “settle science” (aka scientific consensus) but rather of truth. Anyone should be free to question anything but humble enough to know the limits of their own expertise.
    2) You can’t point to any instance of a weather event (e.g. the hurricane, as was done here) as proof of climate change. The one could be true without the other.
    3) What I am most skeptical about personally is not that human’s are contributing to climate change but that the effects of the change constitute a crisis.

Dr. Soon, your paper 'Polar Bear Population Forecasts: A Public-Policy Forecasting Audit' is categorized by Cook et al. (2013) as having; "No Position on AGW". Is this an accurate representation of your paper? Soon: "I am sure that this rating of no position on AGW by CO2 is nowhere accurate nor correct. Rating our serious auditing paper from just a reading of the abstract or words contained in the title of the paper is surely a bad mistake. Specifically, anyone can easily read the statements in our paper as quoted below: "For example, Soon et al. (2001) found that the current generation of GCMs is unable to meaningfully calculate the effects that additional atmospheric carbon dioxide has on the climate. This is because of the uncertainty about the past and present climate and ignorance about relevant weather and climate processes." Here is at least one of our positions on AGW by CO2: the main tool climate scientists used to confirm or reject their CO2-AGW hypothesis is largely not validated and hence has a very limited role for any diagnosis or even predicting real-world regional impacts for any changes in atmospheric CO2. I hope my scientific views and conclusions are clear to anyone that will spend time reading our papers. Cook et al. (2013) is not the study to read if you want to find out about what we say and conclude in our own scientific works." Any further comment on the Cook et al. (2013) paper? Soon: "No extra comment on Cook et al. (2013) is necessary as it is not a paper aiming to help anyone understand the science."

Because of this, people can point out any random paper with nothing else to back it up to support their false beliefs. He calls this cherry picking. When creating any kind of opinion or policy, it is important that we always pick out information that is supported by numerous scientists and that is what Tyson calls "settled science". It is important that we all base our opinions on established facts and that politicians do the same with policies.

      The church used the Bible to determine what was true concerning the cosmos, Galileo used methods of discovery that conflicted with what was accepted from biblical teachings. Galileo helped to pioneer the modern scientific method but was regarded as a heretic in his day.
      So you see the consensus Galileo fought was one derived from religious dogma, not scientific research. Because of this stance, he is regarded today as a hero - and rightly so.

      Because information is power. The science on whether human-induced climate change is occurring is settled, but something as dire as this needs specific information. How fast is climate change accelerating? Are our efforts truly making a difference already? Which regions will be impacted the most? Think of it this way- in the 1980's researched were able to confirm the existence of HIV. But what if they just stopped there? What if they did not investigate how it affects the human body, and what medicine can do about it? Same with climate change, we need a whole lot more information than "yup, it exists".

President W Bush said "we will not have an all volunteer army" (the audience corrected him and he corrected himself). Bush knows that we have and will continue to have a volunteer army. And finally, NGT talks about Lincoln, references the Civil war, and knows that didn't happen while he was alive.

    So how does he respond to Profs. Lindzen (MIT), Happer (Princeton), Christie (Huntsville) and others who go, (a) the satellite data says the temp hasn't gone up as much as you're saying. Have you checked your thermometers aren't being affected by urban sprawl? (b) our plants are LOVING it because they evolved to eat much higher levels of CO2 than we have now (we pump it in at 1000 ppm to greenhouses because that's what they like). (c) CO2 levels have been MUCH higher in the past (2,000 ppm when brachiosaurus was stomping about) and the world survived. It was at 7,000 ppm when our fossil fuels were laid down. How about the NOAA's own ice core samples that show we go through periods of warming and cooling, and peak warming every 100,000 years or so (we're just over 100,000 years since the last one)? How does he justify plunging the west, responsible for less than 50% of CO2 emissions (which are greening the planet. China and Asia, plus developing countries being helped by China, account for over 50%) into economic disaster, with its associated starvation, suicides, riots and revolutions over something that happens regularly, and that we cannot stop even if it WAS our fault because the biggest 'polluters' won't play ball (India calls it eco-colonialism. Frankly, I'm with them).
    Is the temp rising? Yes. It does that. Every 100,000 years or so, it goes very high. Then it drops down to around -3 to -4. The last one (just over 100,000 years ago) was the Eemian. 100,000 years before that we had La Bouchet, 100,000 before that Purfleet, and 100,000 before that the Hoxnian. It happens, it's predictable. We need to focus not on stopping it, but on steeling ourselves to deal with it because even if we stopped (everyone, including China, Asia, etc) producing CO2 tomorrow, the temp with STILL go up. We also need to find a reliable power source that can work in subzero temps, because that's what comes next. Wind and solar will not cut it.
    CO2 is 0.04% of the 1% of GHGs. Of that over 96% is entirely natural (plants and animals breathing, evaporation from the oceans, volcanic activity, etc). Man is responsible for less than 4% of 0.04% of 1%. If the Earth were SO sensitive that it would burn up if we carry on, it would have burned to a crisp when Krakatoa went boom in 1882. It didn't. The Earth can cope. It IS coping by growing more plants (which are feeding the people, so win-win).
    Bottom line. The threats to the farmers (Eire told they must slaughter 200,000 cattle, farmers across Europe told they must stop growing food, stop using fertilizers and generally stop running efficient farms) has led to outcry because we all know that if they stop, we starve. They're telling us to get rid of our cars and shift to electric, but the grid couldn't cope if we COULD do that, and most of us are too broke thanks to the cost of heating and fuel right now. We're poor and we're starting to get very, VERY angry.
    Most of the alarmist stuff is coming from one model, RCP 8.5. They put figures we know from 50 years ago into RCP 8.5 and asked it to tell us the weather today. We're all, apparently, dead. Of all the models, RCP 2.4 (I think) is the lowest and most accurately aligns with reality, but it's not scary, so they don't use it for the press briefings. There's only so long you can keep crying wolf. Stop funding this idiocy and you'd be amazed how fast the fearmongering goes down. I've seen papers on how diabetes is responsible for the obesity epidemic (as opposed to stupid amounts of cheap sugar in the food and sedentary lifestyles) and diabetes. Say ANYTHING is caused by climate change, and you'll get published, even if it's utter rubbish. This has got to stop. Use the trillions being pushed into this into defences against rising sea levels, research into genuine alternatives to fossil fuels (which WILL run out one day, and we need something we can turn on and off to accommodate peaks in demands. You can't do that with a nuclear power station!), and ways to keep people cool because we're going to need it, but stop saying we're going to turn into Venus. We simply won't. We're not close enough to the sun, we have MUCH more water than that planet ever had, and Earth has been through this MANY times before.
