What I may think about it is beside the point. I would be interested to hear from scientists familiar with the data telling us what he may be leaving out or where his logic might be flawed. If science is not peer reviewed, it's just an opinion.
I'd also be very interested (and I'm not being sarcastic) to read any peer reviewed literature you could provide that showed any of Monckton's points to be off base.
OK. Google "National Academy of Science global warming" and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Both organizations have a high concentration of Nobel laureates and make the same basic claims although some details may vary:
- global climate change is happening
- mankind is causing it
- it's going to be bad
Good luck on your quest for knowledge.
