Scientific Skeptics of Anthropogenic Global Warming(AGW)

Submitted by bluemarble on November 13, 2007 - 6:18pm

There is a growing number of vocal scientists that are challenging the overwhelming consensus of the scientific communtiy (i.e. the IPCC and every National Academy of Science of the major industrialized nations). They are challenging Anthropogenic Global Warming(man-made Climate Change) consensus and are furthering the misconception that there is widespread debate over this issue.

That is why I posted the link. There are companies out there with too much to lose with Carbon Tax, Pollution Cleanup, etc. Several Oil Companies, such as BP and Chevron have got with the program and realize the future of their companies lay with renewable energy and new non-polluting technology. The rest of the fossil fuel companies just want to go with the old missinformation ploy. It worked for the start of the Iraq war with my government and it is gaining ground now with the fossil fuel energy companies. The main thing now is to spread the word and expose these so-called objective scientists. Note from the link in the start of this thread that almost every one of those guys have little or no peer-reviewed climate research.

At least you would be helping make a better planet.

I cringed when I saw the front page of The Arizona Republic last Sunday. The front page article was titled, “Skeptics Raise Doubts on Global Warming”

The other front page article, “Outspoken ASU Professor Draws Ire,” is about Arizona State University climatologist Robert Balling who has spoken and written extensively against the widely held scientific view that the documented rise in global temperatures is the result of human activity and that serious consequences will result. His views have elicited outrage from environmentalists and scorn from some fellow scientists. They've also resulted in conference invitations and research grants from industries with a stake in debunking the large body of research that supports a link between human activity and global warming.

Of course any naysayer will not bother to completely read the articles, they just see the headlines and will feel justified in continuing on with their lifestyle, and won’t feel compelled to make greener choices.

Supporting the Message

Atraction's action communities are created to help people plug-in and engage after seeing our films. Help us continue our work and support the message by buying our DVDs, T-shirts or other cool things related to our films. The films we make are created to raise awareness and help foster change around issues of the environment, social justice, consciousness, health and well-being. With each film we launch and action community and conduct educational tours of the film to universities and schools. We also create teaching materials that help people dive deeper into the subject. By purchasing a DVD, or other things, you help spread the message.

Purpose

The purpose of this website is to inspire people to take action. We encourage people to take action at home and in their communities. On this social action website, you will see thousands of examples of what people have chosen to do to make the world a better place. We believe that when people see what other people are doing, it helps them take action too. So we ask that you open a profile, and tell us what action you are doing, perhaps you are going to plant a vegetable garden, or you are going to help start a recycling program at school, whatever it is, let us know and tell us how it's going. You can post videos, pictures and statements. If you need inspiration, check and see what people have done by looking on the action map or joining a group that has already started. Together, step by step, action by action, we can create a healthy and just world.

Take Action

Stop talking. Now is the time. Take action here.
