What happened? Global warming comes under fire by so many other scientists that global warming proponents need to add another theory to explain why so called global warming hasn't killed us all already?
I'm LMAO at this latest grasp to keep a very flawed theory afloat. Am I the only one who sees this?

C'mon people! No one has a clue about this solar cooling thing? That is, 'they' claim that man is releasing huge amounts of particulates into the atmosphere and it in blotting out the full effects of the sun on the planet and thus staving off global warming for a while. Just long enough so that people like Al Gore & Co. wont be around when their theory doesn't come to fruition and they wont be around so we can all laugh at the fools.

I'm reading a book right now called "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming and Environmentalism".
It pretty much says the same thing -- that the sky isn't falling, but the "greenies" insist it is.

Got a reference? All I see in the news is about Global Warming. I don't believe in conspiracy theories that require 99% of the literate people on the planet to be conspirators. Weather scientists don't believe the conspiracy theorists are worthy of the amount of time I have given them here. Yahoo Answers is probably the only place they get that kind of attention, other than their own blogs. That's why the place is infested with them.

Oh, are you talking about the effects of aerosols? Y'know, particulates in the air =do= have the effect of reflecting sunlight back into space, are you trying to say they don't? If you doubt it, just have a gander at any temperature reconstruction, like this one:

See the dip in temperatures right around 1990 (circled)? That would have been the eruption of Mount Pinatubo. Volcanoes release massive amounts of dust, ash, and other particulates in the air when they erupt.

"Global warming comes under fire by so many other scientists..."
Nonsense. Because of the ever increasing mountain of data, the number of skeptical scientists is small and dwindling. Even Richard Lindzen now admits global warming is mostly caused by us.
"The fact that the community overwhelmingly supports the consensus is evidenced by picking up any copy of Journal of Climate or similar, any scientific program at the meetings, or simply going to talk to scientists. I challenge you, if you think there is some un-reported division, show me the hundreds of abstracts that support your view - you won't be able to. You can argue whether the consensus is correct, or what it really implies, but you can't credibly argue it doesn't exist."
Dr. James Baker - NOAA

If you think scientists need to add another theory to explain why global warming hasn't killed us all already, then you are not aware of the true facts. Scientists are not saying global warming will kill us. Only politicians are.

No there is a segment of the global warming scientists(The ones your supposed to believe cause they are 99.9 % of Scientist's) that believes that global warming will lead to global cooling Mini Ice age stuff.

There's no solar cooling theory. The Sun has been fairly constant for a couple decades---it has not been enough to affect the Earth's temperature either way. In case you haven't noticed, 2007 so far is the hottest year in millenia.
