CrossTalk on Climate: Dopenhagen?

World leaders have begun gathering in Copenhagen, as the UN's climate conference enters its crucial phase. But is this forum a Hope-nhagen or a Dope-nhagen? In this edition of CrossTalk, Peter Lavelle asks his guests who we should believe when it comes to the debate surrounding the so-called ClimateGate and Global Warming.

Pachauri was a railroad engineer, not a climatologist, so his opinion matters not.

Bio fuels have inflated world grain prices causing serious problems for the poor.Carbon Taxes that profit Gore and make Dictators rich do nothing for research.Most resources(coal/oil) will run out soon.If they didn't LIE to us, tax energy and invest it DIRECTLY into research for NEW energy sources I wouldn't have a problem with it!

@Maxdwolf i hope you wipe the poop from your mouth after talking.

your car breaks down, you get out of the car and look under the hood; it turns out the fan belt's snapped. once the mechanic arrives he inspects the car and then tells you they need to replace the engine.

@heavym3tal C'mon Mike, send him the evidence. lol

Piers Corbyn bitch-slaps Michael Maccracken with palm of Logic. Bam!

Warning Warning Warning you will now insert butt plugs and limit air output through upper orifice's. Co2 levels are elevating due to volcanic eruptions in Iceland and Indonesia thus limiting the earth's capacity to cool. Any "Prole" not in compliance will be forcefully transported, via rail line, to gulags situated in the once frozen North where they will assist in reversing global warming.

Commissar for global whining,uhm uhm warming.

@Stratslayer The only problem with the solar forcing hypotheses is that the pattern we see in the climate does not match the solar cycles. at. all.

[Maxdwolf]

@Stratslayer Perfect analogy. I'm not your friend. There is no absolute proof. The economies of the world will be just fine. The ice cores and other proxies are PREhistoric and show only a lag. Orbital variations trigger the change, released ghgs force the rest. Stop parroting long debunked canards.

[Stratslayer]

@Maxdwolf By the way, I didn't say anything about solar cycles. However, that theory makes more sense than saying that CO2 causes global warming. The global warming and cooling of the climate is natural. The global conning is dollar driven.
