Caveat: This is a response to Doug Peterson. There is no market analysis here.
Seriously Doug?!? The Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change (NIPCC) is the source for your argument that "there is coherent and legitimate counterpoint". That is ridiculous.
The NIPCC "article" is hosted on the Heartland Institute's website. What is the Heartland Institute? They just push a "conservative" and libertarian agenda for their corporate sponsors. They don't really have any scientific credentials.
As for the NIPCC, they list only four scientists:
Craig D. Idso, his daddy Sherwood (age 76), Robert Carter (deceased three years ago at age 73), and Fred Singer (age 94 and the Founder of the NIPCC).
Singer got his PhD in 1948 (that was 70 years ago!). He is known for his questioning of the link between UV-B and melanoma rates, between chlorofluoro compounds and stratospheric ozone loss, his public downplaying of the health risks of passive smoking, and later as an advocate for climate change denial. Other claims to fame include working as a photographer and electrician on the blockbuster films "Teenage Strangler" and "Flesh Feast". I swear I'm not making this up. Oh -- he also supported the idea that the orbit of the Martian moon Phobos suggests that it is hollow, which implies it is of artificial origin and thus made by "Martians"!
Craig D. Idso is partially sponsored by the CATO Institute. You know the American libertarian think tank headquartered in Washington, D.C. It was founded as the Charles Koch Foundation. You know -- one of the Koch brothers.
Sherwood Idso got his PhD in Soil Science in 1968. He studied plant responses to CO2 (they need it -- no one denies that). While he argued in the 1980s that he didn't believe increasing CO2 would increase global temperatures, he hasn't really done anything in the last two-plus decades.
Robert Carter got his PhD in Paleontology in 1968. He studied morphology of bivalves (clams, oysters, scallops, etc.). In 2006, he published an article declaring that global warming had "stopped" in 1998. This was not published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, but a British newspaper.. The article and its author were widely panned for using short-term, cherry-picked data to misrepresent the facts. In 2007 Wendy Frew, an environmental reporter with The Sydney Morning Herald, wrote that Carter "appears to have little standing in the Australian climate science community." BTW -- he was on the payroll of the Heartland Institute.
These guys are professional charlatans, not real scientists.
If anyone read this far -- you are an open-minded thinker and searcher for knowledge!

I think there is strong political influence in climate "science" and reporting. There is nowhere near the often reported 97% concurrence. There is coherent and legitimate counterpoint.
