John Coleman is a meteorologist and founder of The Weather Channel.

awesome, just like the global cooling fear in the seventies... I am skeptical of global warming... climate change is a natural cyclical event that we cannot control... but are we as humans affecting it?

There is plenty of evidence that global warming is a cyclical event and very little to none that us human are effecting it. The thing is that it is very intuitive to use to think that we are to blame and there for everyone believe the conspiracy and not science (which is not intuitive and requires knowledge which few have).
Since we are part of a democratic/mass media society the people and not science rule (for better or worse).

SCAM is most appropriate.
The thing just drips with phoniness and eventually Gore is going to have to try to figure out how to slink away silently.

It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a SCAM.

That's the best you can come up with for the greatest scam in history?

Perhaps you're being a bit dramatic. Even if scientists are fooled by the data, they are making their judgments based on evidence. That says a lot, and it's appreciated far more than making judgments without it.

Long ago the saying went keep your mouth shut and risk people thinking your a ____ or open it wide and loud and remove all doubt.

First, I didn't say it. John Coleman, founder of The Weather Channel said it. Second, he is a scientist, he has seen the data, and he (along with many other scientists) believe the current alarmism over global warming is nothing more than a scam.

Sorry. I thought you were in agreement with his statement.

But at least he's making judgments based on the data, which is appreciated far more than making judgments without it.

This meteorologist is the only anti global warming person I have come across who's facts are worth reading. Can anyone tell me some other scientists who have come to the same conclusions?
Can anyone tell me why America's and Australia's leaders have done back flips on this issue and now regard global warming as a real threat?

Well it certainly couldn't be that they reexamined the evidence, could it?

I actually concur with that Aces.

ICECAP's main aim seems to be to challenge the climate models being used, and it worries that relying on them may leave civilization unprepared for major climate change which could happen 'possibly very soon' in their words. It is fair enough to challenge political opportunism and misuse of data, though this should not detract from the focus on very real and present dangers - whether a result 'natural' or human factors, or a combination of both.
