you are not a scientist. taking a couple of classes in college on the subject (and the rest being a little basic math and other fluff to make up for the degree requirements) doesn't make you a scientist. It makes you a mere student, who's not even in the field anymore. I am sorry if I take the word of people with actual degrees on the matter over yours.
btw, I've done science all my life. currently finishing up phd in physics. a big part of what I do is model complex systems on super-computers both at unis and national labs. actually, modeling weather patterns was a project I was part of as an intern some years ago. I may not specialize in climate science (when it comes to research at the phd level), but I am pretty sure I know more actual science, spanning several fields, than some punk-ass undergrad whose greatest achievement in his academic career is passing a diff. eqns course.
So here's a guy who almost has a PhD (supposedly) and can't come to his own conclusions. I guess that makes your degree worthless?
You don't know who I am, but I was correct in that you don't know climate science. Congrats on being a life-time student as well.

All their climate computer model predictions have been wrong by a lot (none of them have predicted the pause in warming since 1998) but they continue driving this bull$#@! to put taxes, give subsidies to $#@!ty energy and bring world government.
The sad thing is that so many people buy this garbage.
One of the main flaws from a meteorological perspective is that we were always taught (through thermodynamics and the use of the ideal gas laws) that PV = nRT. But this can't be possible under the global warming theory. One would need extra mass or gravity to bring the equation into equilibrium with a sheer increase in temperature. One might say atmospheric volume could increase, but at the same time the ozone layer is shrinking (also caused by greenhouse gasses), so that complicates matters even further.
The other theory is that AGW's rising temperatures create more water vapor from rising air parcels which leads to the development of more clouds and storms. Even while tornadoes and hurricanes have been below average for a number of years, the creation of more clouds would actually reflect more radiance from the sun back into space, which actually has a cooling effect on the surface. So even then, the energy balance of the atmosphere would remain in equilibrium.
So in other words, nobody has a clue as to what is really occurring and to think so otherwise is sheer hubris. The Republicans believe in God, the Democrats believe in man as God.
