Nonsense, mr engineer.
You pick at the article, yet your points absolutely ratify exactly what it is telling us. Its message is two-fold: (1) proponents of "a coming global warming calamity" will accept one side of the data, and willingly and abruptly dismiss anything to the contrary as if it never existed, which is not scientific and is more like propganda in a cause, and (2) the global warming crowd jumps to the most dire consequences possible, without ever stopping for a millisecond to consider if a few degrees of warming might ultimately be countermanded by other natural factors in the design of our world. Might there even be POSITIVES with some warming? Might the positives outweigh the negatives? Perish the thought! Don't dare think that.
For example, let's look at warming. There probably is some degree of warming going on. (Man made? Very very dubious science with that part of the claim!)
But even if so, if it does actually occur, what happens? There is less ice and more warm land. There is more sun. There is more evaporation and rain. More fresh water. More wind and pollination. Put all that together, and what do you ultimately get? You get more vegetation. That makes LESS carbon dioxide, and more oxygen. More cloud cover. Wow. A completely natural PENDULUM OF NATURE that will gradually send the climate back the other direction without government mandate and intervention.
Meanwhile the Chicken-Little-Gores of the world are screaming for government minions to stop what is completely a part of the cycle of nature. Micromanage the environment. Control our atmosphere. And so on. Jump on the "PC" bandwagon that demands we see global warming and cede our liberty to the "climate police." Make it harder to make a living with a "protect the climate" rationale.
Pure rubbish.
