Not very well it seems plus the science has rather improved in 20 years.

The idea that there is an "almost universal scientific consensus" is a
complete fallacy. *The so-called "consensus" is a political construct

I see conspiracy corner is open for business and tickets are selling well..

by governments has to sign up to that so-called "consensus" before
they can even apply for funding. *They also have to undertake never to
release any results that question or contradict the so-called
"consensus".

So all governments are in on the conspiracy are they, even the russians?

Perhaps you should get together with your fellow mouth breathers on the flip
side of the braindead coin you all inhabit who insist that all governments are
in cahoots with the oil companies and don't care about the climate. Then you
can have a bitch fight while I get the popcorn.

That means that researchers have to agree what their conclusions will

Of course they do dear. Whatever you say. Have a nice cup of tea.

If you think writing pages of paranoid prose that could have been cut and
pasted from any number of pig ignorant US websites somehow makes your argument

You usually talk sense. However, I am with Tony Polson on this one.
Green is the new Red. I do want to breathe cleaner air in our
cities. That can be achieved with electric transit. But, the whole
"Hockey Stick" theory is based on false data. Climategate brought
that out into the open. Just look into who supports "climate change",
the "liberal" elite and their useful idiots.
