50,000 Watts of Hate: Santa vs. global-warming deniers
http://coloradoindependent.com/18145/50000-watts-of-hate-santa-vs-global-warming-deniers

Mike Rosen may think he has a friend in Santa and the polar bears, but climate scientists? Eh, not so much.

From our friends at Colorado Media Matters, Newsradio 850 KOA talker Mike Rosen’s gone off a polar ice cap once again when it comes to global warming.

From the Dec. 18 broadcast of The Mike Rosen Show discussing a Denver Post opinion piece citing the human causes of global warming by Waleed Abdalati, head of NASA’s Cryospheric Sciences Branch at the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) in Greenbelt, Md.:

ROSEN: And the argument, of course, is wholly problematic as to how much of human activity contributes to global warming, and I find much more credible the arguments of qualified scientists who say “pooh-pooh” to that. That we’re a flea — that is, all of human activity on this planet as compared to the influence of the sun and other factors completely outside of our control through the history of this planet long before there were humans walking the Earth and before they were driving around in SUVs, the climate was changing by huge increments over time, so I just don’t buy it.

So who are these credible scientists who claim — against hundreds of peer-reviewed scientific studies — that global warming is not man-made?
