Ringer's a fucking idiot. Most, if not all do NOT believe in anthropogenic
warming or climate change. I don't know how many paleo scientists there
are out there, but I guess "Ringer" knows them all, huh? Nope.

Here's my list of the sane and NOT paid by the government to lie,
scientists and experts in their fields of study, who KNOW man isn't
responsible for climate change.
I'll take these scientists over GOVERNMENT paid shills.
These scientists have said that it is not possible to project global
climate accurately enough to justify the ranges projected for
temperature and sea-level rise over the next century.

Scientists arguing that global warming is primarily caused by natural
processes.

be attributable to natural causes than to human activities. Their views

Reid Bryson (1920-2008), Emeritus Professor of Atmospheric and Oceanic
Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison, said in a 2007 magazine
interview that he believed global warming was primarily caused by
natural processes:
Robert Jastrow (1925-2008), American astronomer, physicist and
cosmologist. He was a leading NASA scientist. Together with Fred Seitz
and William Nierenberg he established the George C. Marshall Institute
to counter the scientists who were arguing against Reagan's Starwars
Initiative, arguing for equal time in the media. This institute later
took the view that tobacco was having no effect, that acid rain was not
caused by human emissions, that ozone was not depleted by CFCs, that
pesticides were not environmentally harmful and it was also critical of
the consensus view of anthropogenic global warming. Jastrow acknowledged
the Earth was experiencing a warming trend, but claimed that the cause
was likely to be natural variation.
Harold ("Hal") Warren Lewis (1923-2011), Emeritus Professor of Physics
and former department chairman at the University of California, Santa
Barbara. In 2010, after 67 years of membership, Lewis resigned from the
American Physical Society, writing in a letter about the "corruption"
from "the money flood" of government grants.

of the National Academy of Sciences and co-founder of the George C.
Marshall Institute in 1984.
