At the risk of sending everyone to sleep, it isn't that "there is
scientific basis for human activities causing global warming" that's the
contentious part, it's that bit about "cause catastrophic heating of the
Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate", which is a lot
harder to find conclusive evidence about*. Or as Tim says, quite clearly,
"just that there wasn't good evidence that it would be a catastrophe".


 Which is plainly not the same as "over 17,000 scientists declare that
global warming is a lie with no scientific basis whatsoever". I don't
believe the change in emphasis was an accident. And nor does Gerri Halliwell
PhD.




 *And this is partly at least because not everybody will agree on what
"catastrophe" means.
