Just in case you haven't noticed global warming stopped in 1998 despite CO2 being poured into the atmosphere at ever greater rates since then, something no eco-nutters or their beloved computer models predicted would happen.
I don't expect the loony climate hysteria brigade to give up on their hobby just yet but unless reality starts to fit their ludicrous, unfounded, cash driven, selfish predictions sooner rather than later even fewer people will take notice of what they say than do now.
