Global warming sources needed

[LuckyTheDog]

My father-in-law, a Phd. chemical engineer, has fallen hook, line and sinker for the opinion of the Heartland Institute re: global warming.

Could someone point me to good, scientific sources that might refute the "it's all a myth" point of view? I am at a disadvantage here because I really do have to acknowledge that my father-in-law has far better scientific credentials than me.

Thanks in advance.

8. Why waste time on in-laws? It will just send you to an early grave

Given your description of his educational background it is most likely he does understand the science behind global warming, but has chosen to value greed and capitalism before the environment.

It is a problem of personality, not facts.
