I think Gavin Schmidt made the mistake of trying to make the science accessible to the audience, but in the process of doing so he came off as patronizing or talking to them like they were kids.

@Jimmyduudah Same goes for NPR in America. They continue to recycle the words of those like Gavin Schmidt. FOX news is in the business of the GOP, an organization largely fueled by (pun intended) oil producers. Keep in mind that just because President Bush shunned the Kyoto Protocol and denied the establishment, his reasons were most likely in the interest of the GOP and the oil companies.

What a putz.

I'm not an automotive genius but if you're suggesting that auto mechanics are not one of the most crooked professionals in the united states, and also incapable of ripping off the average person, then you are being deceptive.
"Your CV joints need replacing. I'm not sure how much further they will go. They don't look good!"
You get the old part back and you're not sure if it really came from your car! In reality, the joints were just fine, but he needed the extra work. Happens every fuckin day.

"We are going to talk about the bigger picture."
? I wish he would talk about something based in fact. What the hell is he talking about cigarettes for? A complete waste of time.
-
His diatribe applies SO WELL to his own argument. It's like a beautiful regression.
-
I have a descent general automotive knowledge. If my mechanic tells me something I know to be false I'm not paying him $2,000 to fix my car. I don't need to be an automotive genius to know when my mechanic is trying to rip me off.

He's an angry man.

There actually is a conclusion you can come to that is other than his lack of respect for the opposition. You can conclude he didn't have any points to make that aren't based upon massive assumptions written into computer models. He knows no intelligent audience would accept any argument based upon what a computer model suggests alone, and he has nothing else. So, to avoid having his own views subject to ridicule he (ineffectively) attacks the opposition.
-
It is a real shame Schmidt wasted his time, pointing out the presence of false arguments by his opponents, but only starting to address the issues as his time runs out. The only conclusion you can come too is he had no respect for the opposition, and just pointed out he didn't accept their arguments in order to get a laugh. Without a desire to address the issues over the data, nor an attempts to argue why the oppositions' points were invalid, his contribution to this debate is absolutely nothing

Note the IPCC completely ignores the Volstok ice core which shows 3 major temp changes over 2.5 degrees C in the SH the last 800 years.
Drastic temp change is the norm and the ice cores prove all of the temp change seen in the last 100 is within the natural range!
The IPCC wants you to believe any change in temp is man and cannot be natural despite the ice cores showing they are 100% wrong but the IPCC simply ignores ice core data in their 4th report, ignoring is the same as lying

He condemned logical fallacies while employing more than the other three speakers combined. According to his own logic, he spoke as a lawyer and not a scientist. He even played the "creationist card."
