First, the use of perjorative terms for people who disagree with you is insulting and hardly worthy of a "scientist". The word is SKEPTIC. and there are many of us. First, the science has NOT been done. What we have are a lot of theories and models but absolutely nothing by way of real science. What is demonstrated is that ice is melting in various places. Whether this is due to changes in weather patterns or true warming is still open to debate,

Next, there still have been no widely published and distributed studies of the global energy budget.. There is one way and one way only for global warming to be a fact. That is for the earth to receive and retain more heat than it radiates to space. We have sufficient assets in space to determine the radiated energy, we can certainly calculate the total energy received from the sun as well as that generated by human activity and heat transfer due to natural radioactivity and conduction through the mantle. So where are the energy budget figures? Inquiring minds want to know. The source of warming if it exists is immaterial at this time. What is needed is some real science to determine if warming is real and not a myth perpertrated by those in need of grant money.
