On the basis that a million lemmings can't be wrong? Actually, it used

As a retired scientist I like to make my own judgement. The acid test
of any theory is that the results it predicts should reasonably follow
reality. The theory that anthropogenic CO2 is responsible for the
recent rise in global temperature fails that test, in that CO2 has
continued to rise, but temperatures haven't changed significantly
within their normal variation since about 2000.

As a retired scientist I would have thought you would put more faith
in figures from a peer reviewed scientific publication from a leading
scientific body(97%) rather than than a politically motivated
blog(43%).


There are plenty of well-qualified climatologists who do not believe
that anthropogenic CO2 causes global warming.


So why don't they publish anything in peer reviewed scientific
publication?


Because there isn't anything to publish. No one has come up with anything
new on why global temperatures aren't following atmospheric CO2 levels.

We just don't know why that isn't happening yet.
