Re: Sahara Desert Snow Storm

I think we’ve danced this dance already Ken. I believe I said then, and will say now, that if everyone followed your lead we’d all be far better off.

Re: Sahara Desert Snow Storm

Exile, I can’t extract out all your specific comments from your previous post, but let me address a couple:

You have misread my explanation of a scientific consensus as meaning the "prevailing...

Re: Sahara Desert Snow Storm

I have consistently presented the current scientific consensus on the issue, which is as adoxograph says, points firmly towards AGW. I have stated (agreeing with you I think) that the scale of human...

Re: Sahara Desert Snow Storm

Thanks Ado. I think this sums up what I’ve been consistently trying to say. The data and research supports AGW. That doesn’t mean it is the final stage in our understanding; in science, nothing is...

Re: Sahara Desert Snow Storm

It’s a perhaps unfortunate term that has been applied to those people who “deny” the data, facts and increasingly clear conclusions coming from the vast majority of experts in the study of climate....
