“This document says you can just ditch [Kyoto],” Mr. Carstensen said. “How will this inspire countries not to ditch the next agreement?”

Peter Foster: Weaver's web - FP Comment

Is this what the scientific method looks like? Is Dr. Weaver’s hypothesis about fossil-fuel interests “falsifiable?” If Dr. Weaver has any evidence, he should produce it. Indeed, the University of Victoria should immediately launch an inquiry into these very serious allegations. Who knows what they might find? Was Dr. Weaver’s office the only office broken into?

There, a greying, mostly male crowd, numbering between 30 and 50 through the day, gathered to deny the science and denounce the 15,000+ conference goers across town.

But regardless that the assembled codgers and their mostly superannuated speakers are howling in the scientific wilderness...

[comment] Richard appeared little more than a dunce when he “debated” Christopher Monckton over global warming.

Richard provided little more explanation for his disaterous debate debut than he wasn’t quite ready that day.

Richard had little more to say about the matter than Monckton is a “denier.”
