The recent Electric Universe conference in Albuquerque New Mexico featured investigators from wide ranging disciplines, who had come to a common conclusion. The key to understanding so-called climate change is the electromagnetic connection between Earth and the Sun. One of the most powerful of these voices is Piers Corbyn, who has received international acclaim for the accuracy of his long-range forecasts. Although we hear daily of a scientific consensus to the contrary, what does Piers make of mankind's alleged role in affecting the climate on Earth?

Isn't it better to have less evidence than outright scientific fraud?

Just because you don't understand it, it doesn't make it fraud. You were probably the type to argue the earth was still flat or that the earth was the center of the solar system when it was proved otherwise. May I know how exactly you've come to the conclusion that it is fraud?

If you don't understand how warming, convention and circulation of warm air affects the atmosphere and oceans of the world leading to colder weather patterns locally (ie the arctic), while having an AVERAGE higher annual global temperature, there is not much more educated people can do to convince you. It would mean you'll have to understand complicated 5th grade math involving averages (whooaaa! complex!). There is nothing scientists can do about that.

I am against the Carbon Tax as much as the next person, but just because I'm against it I'm not going to pretend that global warming doesn't exist. Being against the Carbon Tax and understanding the evidence in support of a warming globe aren't mutually exclusive. That said, I am for investing in cleaner and/or newer technology that will reduce our impact on the global climate.
Excuse me, but before you make sweeping and ignorant claims, you might want to look at my resume and see which universities I've worked with or for and the number of research companies with which I have worked as both scientific/engineering staff or lead developer/project manager. You don't know how me from a bar of soap. Have you done any research yourself?
