What Rhetoric? Blatent lies, half truths and downright simplifications, such as you'll find on Anthony Watt's site, the Heartland Institute, Craig Idso's family site, and the kind of waffle that Monckton comes up with. These are some examples of rhetoric with no scientific basis whatsoever.
It's quite seductive, because the message is simple, albeit deceiving. Much easier than wading through highly technical material.
Goodnight.
Hey muso the highlighted bit that's what the IPCC is full of.
Lucky for you true believers there are sceptics that actually question the validity of what the IPCC says....???
Otherwise you guys would be preaching a science that is only found in the IPCC computer circulation models and NOT IN THE REAL WORLD.
for example if it wasn't for sceptics you would still believe,
There is a hot spot in the tropopause,
All glaciers would melt by 2035,
There was no medieval warm period,
There was no mini ice age,
Co2 and temperature correlate,
0.3 ph ocean acidification will kill all life on Earth,
A carbon tax ETS will save us all from human CO2 emissions,
Polar bears would become extinct,
We have never before had this much CO2 in our atmosphere,
Man is totally responsible for the last 60 years of warming, even though we're coming out of a mini ice age and for the last 30 odds years our sun was very active.
We would have 0.2 degrees celcius per decade of unequivocal warming,
In the old days when politics didn't meddle with science the failing of the above points would have been enough to throw the AGW hypothesis in the rubbish bin where it belongs.
