Bullshit.
The only thing disproven this year was the notion that the free market works.
Or possibly the notion that our market is actually "free"...I HAVE heard the claim that the economic crisis was caused not by a lack of regulation, but by TOO MUCH regulation.:shocked:
Takes all kinds to make a world I guess.
You're never going to be able to "prove" something to everyone, no matter how convincing your proof.

"science" has failed with this one, but then the global warming funding is keeping some of them nicely employed.Originally posted by: GodlessAstronomer

I never understood why these forums were so anti global warming.
Despite the chest-beating to the contrary, much of this forum is anti-science in general. You should see the response to my recent chiropractic thread. People around here tend to think that their gut instinct trumps science.
No, "politics" and "the media" have failed with this one, and clearly the education system has as well if you think that it's not still an open question.
And how dare you imply that a large contingent of scientists would deliberately obscure the truth just for their funding. There will always be a few bad apples, but all in all scientists care much more than an accurate message is presented than the people who end up doing the presenting.
Maybe if you actually read journals instead of mainstream lowest-common-denominator media articles you would realize this. But instead you've let people with agendas tell you what the "scientists" have concluded.
i have spoken with a couple of professors at Cornell University in the Atmospheric Science program. so how do you like me now?
"global warming" is not man made and if it's occurring we aren't going to stop it. i'm all for improving air quality and finding cleaner energy, but i'm not sold on anybody who tells me man is changing the earth's temperature.
