Climategate: You should be steamed

Climategate: You should be steamed
"Now that Copenhagen is past history, what is the next step in the man-made global warming controversy?

Without question, there should be an immediate and thorough investigation of the scientific debauchery revealed by “Climategate.”"

What do the skeptics believe?

First, they concur with the believers that the Earth has been warming since the end of a Little Ice Age around 1850.
The cause of this warming is the question.
Believers think the warming is man-made, while the skeptics believe the warming is natural and contributions from man are minimal and certainly not potentially catastrophic à la Al Gore.

Second, skeptics argue that CO2 is not a pollutant but vital for plant life.

Third, and most important, skeptics believe that climate models are grossly overpredicting future warming from rising concentrations of carbon dioxide.
