Of course this is a global boondoggle.  Is there global cooling and warming? Of course it has been happening forever but the truth of the matter is that the scientific community has had to beg and whine for years for research funding but they have orchestrated it so all they have to do is whisper global warming and the cash comes out for them.  Whey would they want it to stop.  

As for the argument that almost all scientists agree with global warming and the ones questioning are wackos it's because all of the research funding goes to the global warmers and anyone who wants to question the validity of global warming gets no funding.  Therefore how much research do you think is going to come from the questioners.
