One aspect of the Anthropogenic Global Warming issue is that the supporters are lying when they say that there in a consensus of scientists supporting the position of the IPCC, Al Gore and James Hansen. I am astonished that they continue with that obvious lie. Here is a log from Cheat Seeking Missiles regarding the growing list of the skeptical.

More AGW Dissent

- This Time By Scientist Fired By Gore
Posted by: Laer at 10:00 am


Senator James Inhof continues to build his list of prominent scientists who have come out of the closet and now stand proudly against anthropogenic global warming hysteria. His latest catch of 10 such scientists includes Dr. Will Happer, of the Department of Physics at Princeton University, more noted as the scientist Al Gore fired in 1993 for not going along with global warming hysteria.

The latest Inhof post on the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works minority page, Happer says:

“I had the privilege of being fired by Al Gore, since I refused to go along with his alarmism. … I was told that science was not going to intrude on policy. … I did not need the job that badly.

“I have spent a long research career studying physics that is closely related to the greenhouse effect, for example, absorption and emission of visible and infrared radiation, and fluid flow. Fears about man-made global warming are unwarranted and are not based on good science. The earth’s climate is changing now, as it always has. There is no evidence that the changes differ in any qualitative way from those of the past.”

Also new to Inhof’s list - which now numbers more than 650 - are:

Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Dr. W. M. Schaffer, Ph. D., of the University of Arizona - Tucson, past member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, who has authored more than 80 scientific publications and authored the paper “Human Population and Carbon Dioxide.”
CNN (CNN!?) Meteorologist Chad Myers, an meteorologist for 22 years, certified by the American Meteorological Society.
Engineer and Physicist J.K. “Jim” August, formerly of the U.S. Navy nuclear power program, and former chair of professional standard committees in both the American Nuclear Society and the American Society of Mechanical Engineering.
Biologist and Neuropharmacologist Dr. Doug Pettibone, who has authored 120 scientific publications and holds ten patents and is a past member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Meteorologist Tom Wysmuller, former weather forecaster at Amsterdam’s Royal Dutch Weather Bureau whose “Polynomial Regression algorithm is embedded in every high-end Texas Instruments calculator sold today.
MIT Scientist Dr. Robert Rose, a professor of Materials Science and Engineering at MIT with approximately 50 years of experience teaching various scientific courses.
Climate researcher Dr. Craig Loehle, formerly of the Department of Energy Laboratories and currently with the National Council for Air and Stream Improvements, who has published more than 100 peer-reviewed scientific papers.
German Meteorologist Dr. Gerd-Rainer Weber, a Consulting Meteorologist.
Atmospheric Scientist Robert L. Scotto, who has more than 30 years air quality consulting experience, served as zone-wide QA Manager on a $300 million EPA Superfund contract, is co-founder of Minnich and Scotto, Inc., a full-service air quality consulting firm and a past member of the American Meteorological Society (AMS).
Atmospheric Scientist Timothy R. Minnich, who has more than 30 years experience in the design and management of a wide range of air quality investigations for industry and government, specializes in the application of optical remote sensing (ORS) to a wide range of air-related issues. Minnich has worked with EPA as a Superfund contractor, is co-founder of Minnich and Scotto, Inc., a full-service air quality consulting firm. Minnich, who holds a masters degree in meteorology and taught courses at Rutgers University and University of Michigan, is a past member of the American Meteorological Society, specializes in issues like acid rain and ozone and has authored or co-authored numerous technical publications and reports.
You can read each of these scientists’ statements about AGW here. But do remember, please, the debate is over. All that’s left to do is to squander trillions of dollars in a phony war against global warming that is really little more than a massive wealth redistribution scheme.
