You sound like a knowledgeable bloke, but if global warming is hokum, why
does New Scientist tell me it's real? Is this to do with research grants,
like the asteroids heading towards the Earth that the astronomers find
whenever they are trying to get increases in funding?

Global warming is real, but it's a natural phenomenon, not man-made.

Well here you have it - even the White House now accepts global
warming is man made:

Mister Harper's opinions are now those of a very small minority (what
might be called a lunatic fringe?).
