If money is the motivator, as you claim it is, the people who can prove that humans don't have anything to do with climate change are going to get paid and then some. They'll get rich and famous and their name will be in the history books.
There have been a few scientists in history who have gone against the consenting opinion of the day and they've done alright.

The vast money pouring into global warming research has been generated by fear and sensation. Nobody is going to pay millions to better understand long term weather patterns and temperatures for the sake of advancing knowledge. Before the global warming scare there was little money for research. Now it is one of the biggest benefits of government money.
There are scientists who question the association of man to global warming and more importantly the current forecasts for the future. They get immediately dog piled by those scientists with their bellys already full of government grants. You say it is because they are practicing junk science. I say look at the money that is at stake and you will see why any questions regarding the theory of man caused global warming isn't tolerated. I say those e-mails give evidence to my position. Photon and others say that scientists have a special English language where words like "trick" don't mean "trick" and every other troubling thing they said is somehow taken out of context. I'm not buying it.
