Most people in the US, probably including people within your own organization, do not understand why the Kyoto Protocol was stopped in its tracks while Al Gore was Vice President. The greatest importence to the scientific community is that a hypothesis turned theory be based on good data. In the late 1990′s three scientists, Arthur B. Robinson, NoahE. Robinson, and Williw Soon at the Oregon In stitute of Science and Medicine, wrote an analysis of the data presented in the global warming theory entitled, “Environmental Effects of Increased Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide”. Based on this paper released to the scientific community in the US, a petition was circulated in the climateology community, then to the rest of the scientific community. This petition, signed at the time by over 15,000 US scientists and PhD’s stated:

“We urge the United States government to reject the global warming agreement that was written in Kyoto, Japan in December, 1997, and any other similar proposals. The proposed limits on greenhouse gases would harm the environment, hinder the advance of science and technology, and damage the health and welfare of mankind.

There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gasses is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.”

To date in the US well over 31,000 scientists have signed the petition as well. When the scientific community in the US is overlooked in the name of politics, we really need to wonder about the state of our world. Science does not work on faulty data.

The fact of the matter, is that global corporations will stand to make trillions of dollars off of the policies that come from this bad data. In the long run, corporations and governments will dictate how things are to run in the world, and the earth will not be held to a sustainable standard.

Please research the faulty data. Also push sustainability not only to the people, but to the global conglomerates who polute to create “green” products.
