^ Considering your lack of empathy, or any redeeming qualities, that one may associate with being a human, i'm not all to untogether suprised by that statement.

"...the heart of the Kyoto Protocol, the global climate agreement - that climate is one of the most complex systems known, yet that we can manage it by trying to control a small set of factors, namely greenhouse gas emissions. Scientifically, this is not mere uncertainty: it is a lie."
Professor Stott told BBC News Online: "The problem with a chaotic coupled non-linear system as complex as climate is that you can no more predict successfully the outcome of doing something as of not doing something. Kyoto will not halt climate change. Full stop."
- Philip Stott, emeritus professor of biogeography at the University of London.

but... but... the science is solid!
wave after wave of windbags like tantaloser, who have absolutely *zero* background in *any* sort of science assure us of this
I mean, al gore? come on!

yeah! al gore? come on!
he has no background and no business in talking about the environment! come on!
While a Representative, Gore co-sponsored hearings on toxic waste in 1978-79, and hearings on global warming in the 1980s.[44] While a senator working on his book Earth in the Balance, Gore had traveled around the world on numerous fact-finding missions. During Gore's tenure as Vice President, he was a proponent for environmental protection. On Earth Day 1994, Gore launched the worldwide GLOBE program, an innovative hands-on, school-based education and science activity that made extensive use of the Internet to increase student awareness of their environment and contribute research data for scientists.
In the late 1990s, Gore strongly pushed for the passage of the Kyoto Treaty, which called for reduction in greenhouse gas emissions

In thus considering the seven greatest temperature transitions of the past half-million years - three glacial terminations and four glacial inceptions - we note that increases and decreases in atmospheric CO2 concentration not only did not precede the changes in air temperature, they followed them, and by hundreds to thousands of years! There were also long periods of time when atmospheric CO2 remained unchanged, while air temperature dropped, as well as times when the air's CO2 content dropped, while air temperature remained unchanged or actually rose. Hence, the climate history of the past half-million years provides absolutely no evidence to suggest that the ongoing rise in the air's CO2 concentration will lead to significant global warming.

I was going to go through all of Justify's links to show how their authors and sponsors are full of crap, but Chaos took care of that.
I am a particular fan of Frederick Seitz who has been cited on numerous papers in the past, yet upon investigation has been found a liar. His organization is funded by Exxon, and also does "scientific" studies to debunk the "myth" that smoking leads to lung cancer.
I also notice that some of the other websites throw around statistics, yet do not cite where those stats came from. Real good reporting there...

climate is one of the most complex systems known, yet that we can manage it by trying to control a small set of factors, namely greenhouse gas emissions. Scientifically, this is not mere uncertainty: it is a lie.
I actually agree with this. It is very difficult to next week's weather. There have also been global warmings and coolings in the past, there is no doubt about it.
Is this an excuse to continue on an unsustainable course when there is a chance to actually help? Would forcing companies to only manufacture energy efficient products and ban older inefficient items really destroy our economies?!?!
The right seem to be fighting this as they do many arguments attempting to bring them to the middle. They refuse to change their minds regardless of any evidence brought to the table. I sometimes wonder about their childhood....
