It was not based upon an online survey which included no more than two questions.<br /><br />That aside, if someone doesn't like this particular survey, there are plenty of others to choose from all of which tell the same story. It is more than obvious that within the scientific community there is no large scale debate as the media (and many energy companies) would have us believe. <br /><br />The list of scientific agencies and organizations I cited should be evidence enough that the scientific community overwhelmingly supports the idea of anthropogenic climate change being due in part due human activity, but I fully realize no amount of evidence will ever be sufficient to change all opinions on the subject.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11207315813982483195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8216107257175200947.post-58971065364701530142012-04-30T10:20:45.236-05:002012-04-30T10:20:45.236-05:00No idea if man is to blame for our changing climat...No idea if man is to blame for our changing climate and I really don't care, but I'm surprised when I see someone linking to a survey that was long ago discredited. Here's but one source that did so.<br /><br />http://wattsupwiththat.com/2011/11/21/gmu-on-climate-scientists-we-are-the-97/<br /><br />It might say something that just over 30% took the time to respond at all. If this is such settled science I would expect a much higher response rate.<br /><br />Not picking sides, again, I don't care, but thought you might want to know the survey isn't taken seriously.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
