<div>Thanks for your compliment.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As for the other recent comments, some Vision2020 participants do not read very carefully. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>But at least Roger Falen noted that I posted an article that was critical of the global warming scientific consensus, that came from the Realclimate web site. Realclimate is open for public comment. You will find opinions galore on this website, from numerous points of view, though it is devoted to scientific information, discussion and debate, not political or economic oriented discussion. The "side" of this website is called "Science."
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The comment about only posting information to support my "side" (which is what the best science currently indicates, given the consensus in the scientific community), appeared oblivious to the article I posted that attacked the very scientific consensus on global warming I have been defending.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But Roger, did you read the report from the Union of Concerned Scientists on solutions to global warming, focusing on the USA Northeast, that I have referenced on Vision2020 several times? This report was written integrating the work of economists and climate scientists, to find realistic solutions using both the public and private sector. I am not "not looking at market driven ways to solve the problem" nor have I implied that "we should go back to the horse and buggy or to the cave." I could document this claim extensively.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You do a disservice to Vision2020 by making these kind of false implications that obviously are not based on a careful reading of what someone has posted to the list.</div>

<p>Given I suggested you inform climate scientists I have been referencing (i. e. the majority of climate scientists involved in the conclusions of the IPCC, the Union of Concerned Scientists, insofar as they comment on climate change, the Stern Report, etc.) of the errors of their climate models, you might find this web site, welcoming discussion online with climate scientists, an easy way to follow my suggestion. I'm not sure how submitting comments works on this website. But I'll include an "article" submitted, offered at Realclimate, at a web link below, that I found interesting, on "Suppressing Dissent" in the political, media, economic and scientific web of discussion on global warming. You, along with Roger Falen, will find ammunition in this article for your skepticism about the "consensus" scientists working on global warming. Consider that the climate scientists who sponsor Realclimate fall into the "IPCC' mold, as far as I can tell. So they are sponsoring a web site that allows their own work to be sliced and diced. One way or the other, this web site is an amazing resource to study the subject of climate science, from beginners to Phds.:
