I dont give a shit what you choose to accept, rockie.
As I said before, there are others who share the same opinion. And I think they probably know a bit more about the subject than you and groggy:

It's not my opinion that has dealt with your points, it's the facts from said scientist, many of whom are actually climatologist, 97% of whom understand that climate change is a fact, and some of whom I've actually worked with and respect highly.
Here's the criteria for making your list of oooow, 25 scientists; same source
The scientists listed in this article have made statements since the publication of the Third Assessment Report which disagree with one or more of these 3 main conclusions. Each scientist included in this list has published at least one peer-reviewed article in the broad field of
natural sciences, although not necessarily in a field relevant to climatology. To be included on this list it is not enough for a scientist to be merely included on a petition, survey, or list. Instead, the scientist must make their own statement.
In contrast, from the same source, establishing the mainstream scientific assessment,
climate scientists agree that the global average surface temperature has risen over the last century. The
scientific consensus and
scientific opinion on climate change were summarized in the 2001
Third Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The main conclusions on
global warming were as follows:
1. The global
average surface temperaturehas risen 0.6 ± 0.2 °
C since the late 19th century, and 0.17 °C per decade in the last 30 years.[SUP]

2. "There is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is
attributable to human activities", in particular emissions of the
greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane.[SUP]

3. If greenhouse gas emissions continue the warming will also continue, with temperatures projected to increase by 1.4 °C to 5.8 °C between 1990 and 2100.[SUP]
[A][/SUP] Accompanying this temperature increase will be increases in some types of extreme weather and a projected
sea level rise.[SUP]
[5][/SUP] The balance of impacts of global warming become significantly negative at larger values of warming.[SUP]

These findings are recognized by the national science academies of all the major industrialized nations.[SUP]
