In light of this, will George W Bucking Fush now sign the Kyoto Treaty?

He won't sign the treaty because there's nothing anyone can do to mitigate this naturally occurring cyclical phenomenon. Moreover, it would be stupid to hamstring our economy when the Europeans can't even meet their obligations under the treaty and their participation has caused economic growth to stall. Lastly, why should he sign it when the Chinese, Indians and the developing countries will not be bound by it, yet those countries are the greatest polluters? Besides, in another eight years, everyone will have forgotten about global warming and instead will be talking about global cooling.

Should studies put forth by 'green' organisations be dismissed, just because they are the interested party?

Rebuttal of studies should be done by attacking its contents, not by ad hominem.

You've been reading too much of the aforementioned Pseudo-science.

I'm not sure if I agree with the issue or not, but you can't just say that this is a "naturally occuring cyclical phenomenon."

The evidence from your side must be pretty compelling if have to resort to name calling, but the truth is there is nothing approaching consensus among climate scientists as to the causes of global warming. Based upon your response I gather that you’re some pasty-faced vegan teen activist and that I've insulted your religion. Maybe when you have s ...[text shortened]... d to the discussion we can continue this dialogue; until then, go eat a hamburger or something.
