Yes I read the entire article much to your disbelief. I don't know what group of scientists to beleive. I am of the opinion that most of these people are crackpots.

Anything published must pass through those I call "gatekeepers." This also applies to children's->college textbooks. When I compare some of my older ones with what my younger sibling is reading- I am amazed. Then I look at even older ones and I see a pattern. A lot of "knowledge" is filtered if not ought right made up in general it seems.

There has never been a 100% agreement on anything. Alot of enviornmentalist just say we are adding to the problem, which I agree with, to what degree though is another question. To assume nothing we do effect anything would be better left to children and fools.

Unfortunately, now- adays the gatekeepers only get to see the "published" material, at which time you may be lucky to find a critique of the material.

The easiest way to determine the material's credibility, or it's bias, is to determine who is funding the author.

Science schools and labs receive funding from whoever wants credible results of some kind. With schools so desperate for funds, the results should be considered subject to bias.

You always hope published information is authored by independent experts.

A few years ago, Public Citizen Health Research Group discovered that some articles plublished in JAMA, were written by well known physicians, who received funding from industries who would in some way benefit from the articles, discounting the articles' information.
