I'm all for a honest discussion of the science, but at least don't keep using the same lame websites from the list of astro-turfing, industry supported non-scientists :S Give me a break! SPPI, the Australian News Jeesh! Why not just say the Exxon/Mobil says don't worry. These are the same people who denied any link between tobacco and cancer and had the science to back it up.
A bit of information about SPPI
The Science and Public Policy Institute (SPPI) is a United States based organization that is skeptical of human induced climate change.
It was formerly known as the Center for Science and Public Policy for the Frontiers of Freedom, a conservative think tank founded by former Republican senator Malcolm Wallop. The institute describes itself as a
nonprofit institute of research and education dedicated to sound public policy based on sound science. Free from affiliation to any corporation or political party, we support the advancement of sensible public policies for energy and the environment rooted in rational science and economics. Only through science and factual information, separating reality from rhetoric, can legislators develop beneficial policies without unintended consequences that might threaten the life, liberty, and prosperity of the citizenry.
The organization's Executive Director is Robert "Bob" Ferguson, a former Chief of Staff to Republican Congressmen Jack Fields (1981-1997), John E. Peterson (1997-2002), and Rick Renzi (2002). The chief science adviser to the institute is Willie Soon, PhD an astrophysicist and geoscientist, an opponent of man made global warming and advancer of the theory that climate change is caused by solar variation. The chief policy adviser is Christopher Monckton, a former special adviser to Margaret Thatcher and one of the UK's most prominent climate change sceptics.
TVMOB was recently discussed in this forum concerning his outright lies concerning the APS. Willie Soon has been discredited so many times it's pathetic. SPPI sole source of funding is Exxon/Mobil
