Can 30,000 scientists be wrong?

There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the earth's climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the earth.

The paragraph above is included in the petition application of the Global Warming Petition Project. To date, more 30,000 U.S. qualified scientists have signed on this petition. Interestingly, in Al Gore's home state of Tennessee, 544 scientists have signed on. California has more than 3,700 scientists signed on. Illinois shows 895 petitioners.

As I write, a blizzard is howling outside my office window. Where are you, Global Warmers, when I need you?
