Perhaps it's the lawyer in me, but I don't believe I know enough to say one way or the other. I will readily admit that it looks fishy, and they may really have been trying to pull a fast one. But even if they were, I have a hard time translating that it into an international conspiracy to perpetrate a fraud. I would need a lot more evidence of that.

I just don't believe we are "smart" enough or "dumb" enough to change nature. If we wanted to change the Earth's temperature in either direction (cooler or hotter) I do not believe we could so so.
Not smart enough to change nature? Tell that to the Dutch, who've done a pretty good job of controlling the oceans and wetlands around them. Seems to me rather naive to think we can put whatever we want to in the air without any consequence at all.

My agenda is that I have seen man go overboard pandering to the environmental extremist and I am very concerned where this new effort and the multi billions or trillions of $$$ that will be extorted from us will take our country.
To be clear, I'm all for healthy skepticism. But I think what is basically an anti-environmentalist agenda is just as biased and unproductive as a do-whatever-the-environmentalists-say agenda.
