Dr. Wilson Flood, of the Royal Society of Chemistry and a chemistry education
consultant


Cites this article and this one

Arguments Condensed:
  • It hasn't warmed since 1998
  • co2 won't double by 2100
  • climate sensitivity is 0.18K/wm-2 (roughly calculated by dividing 33C by 150wm-2...I suspect the last figure is calculated by surface radiation minus outgoing radiation)

Quotes:

"Of all the scientific disciplines, chemistry equips us best to grasp the essentials of the global warming debate"
