The green/left hate and fear this man...

...Dr Roy W. Spencer is a principal research scientist for the University of Alabama in Huntsville and the U.S. Science Team Leader for the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR-E) on NASA’s Aqua satellite. He has served as senior scientist for climate studies at NASA’s Marshal Space Flight Centre in Huntsville, Alabama. While Spencer is known for his satellite-based temperature monitoring work, for which he was awarded the American Meteorological Society's Special Award, he has in recent years become better known for his denial of the (so called) scientific consensus that human activity is primarily responsible for global warming. (From Wikipedia.)


...Unquestionably, the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was formed to build the scientific case for humanity being the primary cause of global warming. Such a goal is fundamentally unscientific, as it is hostile to alternative hypotheses for the causes of climate change...more here...

...While popular press reports would lead one to believe that all reputable scientists now agree that manmade global warming will be a serious problem, there is a sizeable minority of reputable scientists who disagree. They have published peer reviewed papers on the subject, yet they are largely ignored by mainstream climate scientists. .. recent evidence support(s) the view that our climate is relatively immune to mankind’s emissions of carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere...more here...

..."There's probably a natural reason for global warming...We will look back on it as a gigantic false alarm...The Earth isn't that sensitive to how much CO2 we put into the atmosphere... I think we need to consider the possibility that more carbon dioxide is better than less."
Asked in December 2008 what his advice was for then-President-Elect Obama, Spencer responded, "He should put off the environmentalists indefinitely... Tell them we have to fix the economy first before we can afford unaffordable renewable energy 'solutions.'...

...I hope that the (Senate Works) Committee realizes that, if true, these new results mean that humanity will be largely spared the negative consequences of human-induced climate change. This would be good news that should be celebrated, not attacked and maligned. And given that virtually no research into possible natural explanations for global warming has been performed, it is time for scientific objectivity and integrity to be restored to the field of global warming research ...more here...
