If Plimer and others like him think they have the scientific answers why do they not publish in peer reviewed journals? A bit of hand waving drivel which his book mostly is will only fool the scientifically illiterate. Nearly all of his references are quoted out of context or twisted when it really matters.
If you do not trust climate scientists then next time you fly on international airliner maybe the passengers can vote for the most reasonable non pilot who gives a convincing story as to what the real pilots should do next. I am sure you would all feel a lot safer!
I am really tired of hearing people/commentators/denialists say ' I am not a scientist but ( insert outlandish non scientific hearsay statement here)... '.
All of the denialists rubbish the models with the simple statement 'garbage in garbage out'. Not one of them understands the basic mathematics needed to begin to understand the models such as partial differential equations and their integrals, Greens Theorem, double/triple integrals, Fourier series/analysis and far more. I would go so far as saying they do not understand even simple spreadsheets. They are the sort of people who call arithmetic maths.
I won't mention the general denialist faith in non existent invisible friends and then have the nerve to accuse scientists of believing in a quasi green religion.
Meanwhile if I get a brain tumour I should bone up on 'Brain Surgery for Beginners' as you cannot trust these doctors as they do not have all the answers.
I only mentioned the war once but I think I got away with it.
