GWACBM=Global Warming As Caused By Man. From the Raleigh N&O
Regarding the Jan. 16 article "Evangelicals join scientists on warming":
Despite the media's persistent blurring of natural variability vs. anthropogenic responsibility for global climate change, the scientific community is in overwhelming agreement that human activities are hugely responsible. So news of faith communities' efforts to rally their constituents to act with a common sense of urgency about threats to life on Earth is most encouraging.
In the Triangle, the N.C. Council of Churches and Interfaith Power and Light are organizing to join clergy leaders with scientists. In the next few weeks, for example, there will be clergy breakfasts in Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill with Dr. William Schlesinger, dean of the Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Science at Duke University. These meetings are intended to provide opportunities to discuss global climate change and encourage hope and positive action in support of global warming solutions.
Got that? The scientific community is in overwhelming agreement. So, I decided that I had to write my once a quarter letter to the editor, which, as of Wednesday, is stull not published.
In response to the letter written by Nancy Carter, published on Monday, I must respectfully disagree that "the scientific community is in overwhelming agreement that human activities are hugely responsible" for global warming. In fact, they are not.
While a vast amount of scientists do agree that the Earth is going through a warming period, following on the heals of the Little Ice Age, not all, and especially not most, agree that it is primarily caused by human activity. In fact, most true, scientific studies, versus the computer models, which, BTW, cannot even tell us what the weather is with 100% reliability 10 days out, show that natural processes are responsible, such as the Sun in a higher activity state and volcano's in the Mid Atlantic Ridge being more active.
Certainly, Man plays some small part. But, do we cause massive changes in climate, or just local conditions? I submit to you the falsity of the "Snows of Kilimanjaro," which blamed the melting of the snow and glaciers on Global Warming as Caused by Man. In fact, Man was the cause, but not through "climate change," as it is disingenuously called. The issue was clear cutting, which changed the weather patterns around the mountain. It was not global warming.
Instead of having an honest discussion on global warming, those who faithfully spout the approved doctrine want to shut down any who disagree, as perfectly illustrated by the cartoon on the editorial page from the same day.
Instead of wasting time on something we can do little about, we should be working towards cleaner air, water, and land. Maybe better fuel economy for vehicles, to reduce pollutants. Funny how some of the biggest Global Warming as Caused By Mankind supporters live in the Los Angelos area. How's the air quality in L.A., BTW?
If those who spout the approved global warming doctrines actually cared, they would give up all forms of oil based travel, including their cars and trip by plane. Funny how that doesn't occur, eh?
Wouldn't want Liberals to have to deal with facts, now, would we? The might swoon, have coniption fits, sound like someone with Turrets syndrome, and get sick to their tummies.

The scientific community has never been in overwhelming agreement over global warming. In fact, merely a cursory search reveals plenty of disagreement over many aspects of the global warming debate including, but not limited to, the cause of the phenomena, if it is cyclical or not, whether or not it can be reversed and even if it is a long-term or short-term event that occurs naturally. The claims that the scientific community is in agreement over global warming is a completely and utterly disingenuous claim.
