Than 1000 International Scientists Dissent Over Man-Made Global ...

Swedish Climatologist Dr. Hans Jelbring of the Paleogeophysics & Geodynamics
Unit at Stockholm University, dissented from the global warming movement in 2009.
―The dysfunctional nature of the climate sciences is nothing short of a scandal,‖ Jelbring
wrote in August 2009. ―Science is too important for our society to be misused in the way
it has been done within the Climate Science Community,‖ Jelbring added. Jelbring noted
that many of global warming promoting scientists ―have actively suppressed research
results presented by researchers that do not comply with the dogma that they and the
IPCC have set without support of accepted scientific methods." He called the UN IPCC a
―political‖ organization and accused the IPCC of making claims ―without complying with
scientific methods according to its Swedish definition. It should be observed that the
IPCC statements have no validity, as information with scientific quality.‖ Jelbring
lamented that ―recognized servants in the specialized topics of climatology and
meteorology in Sweden have failed to accomplish their duty to present facts and results
that, according to Swedish law, has to be based on scientific methods and acknowledged
experience.‖ He went on to explain that the ―Greenhouse Effect phenomenon is not a
result of human emissions.‖ (LINK) [Updated December 9, 2010. Corrects Jelbring's

Renowned engineer and aviation/space pioneer Burt Rutan, was named "100 most
influential people in the world, 2004" by Time Magazine and Newsweek called him
"the man responsible for more innovations in modern aviation than any living
engineer." Rutan has received “hundreds of awards including: Presidential
Citizen's Medal, Two Collier Trophies, Academy of Achievement Golden Plate and
the Charles Lindbergh Award. He has developed 44 new aircraft types since 1972
including; Voyager, SpaceShipOne, and the first commercial spaceship –
SpaceShipTwo. Rutan, declared himself skeptical of man-made global warming. Rutan
mocked the alleged climate ―crisis‖ in August 2009. ―Complex data from disparate
sources can be processed and presented in very different ways, and to ‗prove‘ many
different theories,‖ Rutan explained. ―For decades, as a professional experimental test
engineer, I have analyzed experimental data and watched others massage and present
data. I became a cynic; My conclusion – ‗if someone is aggressively selling a technical
product who‘s merits are dependent on complex experimental data, he is likely lying‘.
That is true whether the product is an airplane or a Carbon Credit,‖ Rutan said. In
September 2009, Rutan added, ― It looks to me like the history and the geology and the
biology all pretty much say ‗Warm is good, cold is bad,‘‖ he added. ―Those who call
themselves "Green planet advocates‖ should be arguing for a CO2- fertilized atmosphere,
not a CO2-starved atmosphere," says Rutan. "Just do a bit of research and you will find
that diversity increases when the planet was warm AND had high CO2 atmospheric
content." According to Rutan, "You will also find that we almost had a planet
catastrophe when the atmospheric CO2 went down to its low of 180 parts per million.
Below 150 ppm, plants die and then we animals die. A more ideal atmosphere for a
green planet (4 or 5 times the current CO2) is what we had when the dinosaurs roamed a
planet that was nearly all green, pole to pole. Oh, BTW, Al Gore's personal behavior
supports a green planet - his enormous energy use with his 4 homes and his bizjet, does
