Of course another interpretation would simply be to posit that those rejecting the alarming visions of a human-unraveled climate are illustrating another solid human trait — skepticism about overwrought claims in the absence of hard evidence ( don’t expect that any time soon) or direct experience ( same deal, at least in prosperous places).Airports A Tarmac Tale « Musings from the Chiefio

Australian biologist, Roslyn Gleadow of Monash University, Melbourne raised eyebrows recently in her much trumpeted alarmist paper, 'Growth and nutritive value of cassava are reduced when grown in elevated CO2'. Now she deepens suspicions of wrongdoing by storming out of a media interview.THE HOCKEY SCHTICK: Dr. Patrick Michaels: IPCC Forecasts are Incorrect
...An additional and important discrepancy between the models and reality extends into the lower atmosphere as well. In the lower atmosphere, climate models expectations are that the degree of warming with increasing greenhouse gas concentrations should be greater than that experienced at the surface, with the lower atmosphere warming about 1.4 times faster than the average surface temperature. Despite claims that observations and models are in agreement (Santer et al., 2008), new analyses incorporating a large number of both observational datasets as well as climate model projections, clearly and strongly demonstrate that the surface warming (which itself is below the model mean) is significantly outpacing the warming in the lower atmosphere—contrary to climate model expectations. Instead of exhibiting 40% more warming than the surface, the lower atmosphere is warming 25% less—a statistically significant difference (Christy et al., 2010).
