There is far more money to be made in linking Global warming to human activity then in denying it. The links to big companies are often thrown out there without just cause to devalue what credible scientists are saying. Eliminate those who are making a profit on the man caused/impending doom side of the equation and you would find very little unbiased research has been done.
