No, they did review 12,000 papers but eliminated 7930 for not having an opinion. Of that only 64 explicitly endorsed the quantitative hypothesis to the effect that humans are the primary cause of current warming. Which leads to: "their stated conclusion is incorrect." http://wattsupwiththat.com/2

It is not accidental. It is as well crafted a disinformation campaign as any used against enemies in warfare, with as delicate a touch as the best marketing campaigns. a LOT of time and effort and brain power is used to create these misconceptions. On Wed, Jul 10, 2013 at 9:53 AM, Vivec wrote:

No it doesn't. There is no scientific proof global warming is caused by man, to the contrary. The pause in temperature rise during the increase of co2 would seem to suggest otherwise. But who cares about actual science when you can make shit up and earn a bundle. . On Wed, Jul 10, 2013 at 12:
