Huffington Post publishes an article questioning man-made global warming. Harold Ambler sites several data that allow for the plausibility that maybe there are other sources of climate change. Is the left opening up to the possibility that global warming might just be a natural cycle? If you read the comments, they don't seem to be open to the discussion.
As an engineer, I tend to side with Ambler. The simple argument about the specific heat of CO2 vs. H2O a big. And the many cycles of the climate over the history of earth is also unsubstantiated in the man-made global warming argument. What man-made period reversed the ice age? Also as a scientist, I always keep my mind open to alternative views. Anyone who says the argument is over is not scientific (Thanks, liberal public education).
Here in lies the challenge in loosening the grip of the man-made global warming argument. If you say, "The argument is over." you have crossed the line into faith/religion. Most who have committed themselves to the man-made global warming cause stick to it like a religion. How do you convince a Christian there might not be a God?

Good article. As you know, global warming is one of my hot buttons. The more I talk to people about it, the more I am learning how skeptical they are. Especially since the recent weather trends are veering away from the trends the weather nazis have been warning us about.
