The "Scientific Consensus" That Isn't Of Climate Change


Below is a small list of scientists, with impeccable credentials, all of whom were once global warming supporters, since turned skeptics. They are far from the only ones, which tends to belie the oft-repeated “scientific consensus” the environmentalist whackos like to throw around.

USA - Stanley B. Goldenberg, MS (Atmospheric Scientist – Hurricane Expert) - NOAA

“It is a blatant lie put forth in the media that makes it seem there is only a fringe of scientists who don't buy into anthropogenic global warming.”

Commenting on the alarmist Hurricane report for the President he says “I didn't notice a single recognized hurricane climate expert in the list of authors and they definitely ignore a large body of the published hurricane research. There are a number of hurricane climate experts (including myself) that would disagree strongly with the hurricane-related conclusions of this report!”

USA - Dr. Neil Frank (Atmospheric Scientist and Hurricane Expert), former director of the National Hurricane Center, dismissed fears of catastrophic man-made global warming. Frank has published a variety of professional papers on tropical meteorology and served as the chairman of the International Hurricane Committee.

"It's a hoax," Frank told the Washington Post on May 28, 2006 regarding doomsday climate scenarios. According to the article, "[Frank] says cutting carbon emissions would wind up hurting poor people. When asked if he thinks more CO2 in the air would be a good thing. ‘Exactly! Maybe we're living in a carbon dioxide-starved world. We don't know.'" Frank also lamented that the UN's IPCC does not reach out to the many skeptics of global warming like himself.

Dr. Joe Sobel (Senior Meteorologist) of Accuweather, winner of the American Meteorological Society 2005 Award for Broadcaster of the Year, asserted that climate change is nothing new. Sobel has 35 years experience at Accuweather and has also been a member of the American Meteorology Society since 1966. Sobel said on January 11, 2007:

"The climate is changing. The climate has always changed, that is a fact of the earth's existence,"

"Only 10,000 years ago, which is geologically speaking is like the snap of a finger, we were in the midst of an ice age. There is not much doubt that climate changes and that climate will continue to change."

"Back in the old days... and I'm only talking 5 years or so ago... we did not name sub-tropical storms. Names were only given to storms that were deemed to be truly tropical. In the last few years, there have been a number of sub-tropical storms named. Those named storms go into the total of named storms and obviously increase the number of storms that year and consequently increase the average number of storms per year. It has been claimed that global warming is responsible for an increasing number of tropical storms and hurricanes, but here is a reason that the number of storms is increasing that has absolutely nothing to do with global warming. It's because we are mixing apples and oranges and calling them all apples!”

I'm sorry, but if you read the report, they don't really sound like just a FEW “fringe skeptics” to me
.

I know the MSM has a bad habit of ignoring the things that go against, or don't advance, their agenda, but you'd think they would have given this at least a passing mention in order to maintain their illusion of objectivity. Yet they still blather on about how the “science is settled” and there is a “scientific consensus.” ~ Hunter
