Now it is quite funny given that this bloke calls himself a sceptic, but, clearly due to either erroneous and poorly done research or deliberately using data to provide misleading information proactively sets back any genuine sceptic by light years.

Apart from the actual issues being misrepresented, there is the bigger issue of integrity. Clearly it is lacking.
Now this is the problem I like to site with the entire debate. Misinformation, discredited facts, facts being falsely discredited etc etc etc.
The real problem is that we (humans) have greatly contributed to (significant) environmental degradation and this pseudo debate conducted by pseudo intellectuals (at least in MSM) does a great smoke screen job of avoiding doing anything about the actual damage we have done. That is great work really... In fact, both camps should be extremely proud of their efforts to facilitate ongoing and destructive irresponsible behaviour...
However, I will make it perfectly clear that I am quite pointedly targeting the deniers here, because, it is noteworthy that from my perspective, deniers really do need to stop perpetuating the lie about being sceptics. I am sceptical they have that level of integrity though...
