Politicians and some of the scientists like to say that there's a consensus now on global warming or the science has been settled, but you have to ask them, what is there a consensus on? Because it really makes a difference. What are you talking about? The only consensus I`m aware of is that it's warmed in the last century.

Believe it or not, very little research has ever been funded to search for natural mechanisms of warming. . . it has simply been assumed that global warming is manmade. Climate change - it happens, with or without our help.

We see something change in our climate and we blame ourselves. . . I don't think we understand what happens. We can watch it happen on the (climate) models, we know it happens, but we don't know for sure how it happens.
