Climate fraud report on eve of Climate Summit

Al Gore and many of his followers insist that climate change science is settled. Not so fast.

From a report at the link below:

The scientific consensus that mankind has caused climate change was rocked yesterday as a leading academic called it a “load of hot air underpinned by fraud”.

Professor Plimer - author of Heaven and Earth: Global Warming, The Missing Science - says “Climates always change. They always have and they always will. They are driven by a number of factors that are random and cyclical.”

Ian Plimer condemned the climate change lobby as “climate comrades” keeping the “gravy train” going.

In a controversial talk just days before the start of a climate summit attended by world leaders in Copenhagen, Prof Plimer said Governments were treating the public like “fools” and using climate change to increase taxes.

In America it’s more than just about carbon taxes - it’s also about control.

Plimer cited periods of warming during the Roman Empire and in the Middle Ages – when Vikings grew crops on Greenland – and cooler phases such as the Dark Ages and the Little Ice Age from 1300 to 1850.

And he predicted that the next phase would cool the planet.
