You cant debate. you only throw mud at anyone who has 1% variance with your opinion. if u even studied science and learned from places other then the internet you might recognise the stupidiity of adopting a position that does not allow dissent of any kind. thats not science. it is religion - nothing more.

You can dissent... In a peer reviewed journal. Anything else is opinionated gibberish that has no bearing whatsoever on the scientific "debate" and can be dismisse dout of hand.

so we can dismiss garnaut, gore and flannery because they dont publich in such journals?

I agree there is "a" great climate debate.

There are many.

But you refered to THE debate.

Like referring to"The Thriller in Manila" or "The Great Rock & Roll Swindle".

One is "a" boxing match, the other "a" movie.

AS for the various arguments about CC - one side is right, and the other calls their childish tantrums "The Debate".

Well well well! You actually DO have a skill after all! PEDANTRY.

in a long thread your only contribution is this??? i might oppose many of the viewpoints expressed in this thread but yours is... worthless.

The basic premise of your OP is flawed, as are your arguments.

Straw Man.

and the biggest laugh is on you. the OP ISNT pimarily about CC but on the polarisation of the debate - something neither you or anyone has had the capacity to render a comment on.

Longweekend, your attempt to rebadge yourself as a moderate in this debate, having tried every other position from outright denial forwards, is pathetic.

Your OP is flawed, and no-one cares about the labels except the people who tend towards denialism, like yourself.

Well they are only extremists & alarmists specialising in scaremongering which appeals to the gullies.

Wow, what a zinger.

As the evidence mounts, as church leaders join business leaders and pollies in supporting action, I expect we'll see more denialists rebadging themselves "moderates".

"Yes" they'll say, "we need to do something, but not too much", conveniently forgetting all the time they've wasted.

When we need action, they'll be labelling us extremists, and urging restraint. They'll be quiet on death threats against scientists, and silent when the evidence is ratified yet again.

And, for the record, I hope CC is proven to be wrong. That would be great. That doesn't mean I believe we should sit on our hands.

So these celebrities, church leaders, business leaders and pollies - they're scientists aren't they!
And these celebrities, church leaders, business leaders and pollies in the advertisements are being paid to say what Gillard wants them to say aren't they!

Garnaut talks about the economics of climate change, not whether climate change is real or not. So, no, Garnaut is most definitely in.
