Mr. President, that is not true

"Few challenges facing America and the world are more urgent than combating climate change.The science is beyond dispute and the facts are clear."

— PRESIDENT-ELECT BARACK OBAMA, NOVEMBER 19 , 2008

With all due respect Mr. President, that is not true.

We, the undersigned scientists, maintain that the case for alarm regarding climate change is grossly overstated. Surface temperature changes over the past century have been episodic and modest and there has been no net global warming for over a decade now.

Not everyone agrees that humans are responsible for global warming. Indeed, not everyone agrees that the globe is warming. Of course, if you listen the mainstream media, you don't hear anyone but the alarmists who are creating the hysteria which is necessary to create public support for the Obama agenda.
