Thirdly: Do you agree that we can readily distinguish CO2, which is why you can buy it in canisters, and why we're able to give readings of its presence down to a single part per million.


Of course, it's how we can measure carbon12 and carbopn14 and then work out the residence times as under 20 years for CO2 with massive, possibly up to 20%, transfers between the oceans and atmosphere on an annual basis.

Fourthly: Do you agree that we're already seeing changes, such as rainfall patterns changing in eastern Africa or flood frequency increasing in Bangladesh, that are exactly in line with what was predicted.


No, I do not, it's weather. One of the IPCC contributors QUIT over the use of data to suggest the increasing occurence of storms - which was simply not true.

My mum and dad lost their house to a flood last year in the Highlands and they still think AGW is a complete con. My mum's 74, even she sees through it.

They also were flooded out in 2002, the bottom picture on here is my mum's dog in a boat against my mum's back being rescued then: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/2484635.stm ...and not a WORD about AGW!!! Richard Black and the bbc weren't yet on-message back then!

fifthly: How do you propose we 'adapt' to crop failures across the globe and drastic falls in food prioduction?


Y'know what, the earth warms and cools in cycles. If it gets too warm to grow enough food we'll start to decrease in numbers. We're a simple species with no 'rights' of survival, regardless of our arrogance as a species. If we've speeded it up, we'll die out quicker, if we haven't, it'll happen slower. Intersting report here though as the earth is getting 'greener' just now: http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/GlobalGarden/

Sixthly: Where have the IPCC tried to cover over and remove from the records the fact of the Medieval Warming period?


Any critical review of the 'Hockey Stick' statistical methods shows the MWP either 'smoothed' out, or the start date curtalied to exclude it.

Seventhly: Where's the peer-reviewed papers that say MWP was warmer than today?


Couple linked in here, but the IPCC won't recognise this type of Peer Review as they can't control it.... http://www.liberalwhoppers.com/2010/02/14/medieval-warming-period-in-china-and-south-america-warmer-than-modern-temperatures/
