Another CO2 Debunking

Yet another report debunks CO2 as the cause of global warming:

Three Stages of Knowledge and the IPCC

Our scientific understanding of global warming has gone through three stages:

1985–2003
Old ice core data led us to strongly suspect that CO2 causes global warming.

2003–2007
New ice core data eliminated previous reason for suspecting CO2. No evidence to suspect or exonerate CO2.

From Aug 2007
Know for sure that greenhouse is not causing global warming. CO2 no longer a suspect.

The IPCC 2007 report (the latest and greatest from the IPCC) is based on all scientific literature up to mid 2006. The Bali Conference is the bureaucratic response to that report. Too bad that the data has changed since then

Given that those attending the boondoggle in Bali knew this before they went can we charge them for fraud and get our money back?

Somehow I don't think anything will change because of the gravy train. As the author points out:

Gratuitous advice for those whose jobs depend on the idea that carbon emissions cause global warming: Find another job to pay your mortgage and feed your kids!)

Global cooling is the new global warming! They can just dig out the scare stories on GC from the 1970s and re-run that.
