You just proved that again with those quotes...lol.
Again, you manufactured a drive by post because you cannot counter what was originally said and now you are resorting to obfuscating the entire matter with a claim...that was NEVER made.
You are really bad at this.

You know exactly what you're doing.
Here's a thread where you refer to CO2 contributing to climate change a 'fringe' belief.

I have read on this very board that not only are hurricanes of late more prevelant but that climate change is DIRECTLY responsible for the ferocity as well. I argued against this assertion right after Katrina when passion was at it highest. (for a very good reason)
Not saying anything like "there is no climate change/global warming"...because there is. What I still believe, along with a myriad of scientists in various disciplines, is that a warming trend on this planet is quite possibly nothing more than history repeating itself....for the umpteenth time.
No one is or can be 100% certain that man has caused the most recent event, but so many say they are. That's why this whole debate has become so polorized.
So much more needed to be learned before we can know one way or another....and sacificing thousands and thousands of livlihoods before we know for sure could be so more detrimental than waiting til we have the proof.
This guy would be the first to admit as much, although the article also includes detractors to his theory...which is par for the course on this debate at any level. My favorite quote is the last one however...makes the whole thing a bit easier to dicuss.

Anti-enviroment? You believe there is a mass group of people that go around wanting to destroy the enviroment? And of course they are automatically labelled right-wingers right? Maybe they are just whackos with no affiliation.....no that wouldn't allow you to paint everyone with your broad brush of hate though.
Who said it "doesnt exist"? Many are just concerned that a huge reaction to what might be a small if not normal occurence deosnt occur that ends up costing billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of jobs....but no its all about wanting to destroy that lovely little daisy growing across the street.
Wow.
