(And are probably having too much fun calling those who don’t agree with them “deniers” and likening skeptics to fascists.) But these scientists have made an important contribution to the debate that Gore says doesn’t exist. Their research, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research, indicates that nature, not man, has been the dominant force in climate change in the late 20th century.”
