>Full disclosure: this was a self-selecting study. Invitations weresent to 10,000+ identified Earth scientists (essentially, all the Earth Scientists in the US); about 30% chose to participate. It was done in a way that kept participants anonymous, so no issues with facing embarrassment.

What a load of crap. How can 30% of any population be proof that the science is objective? There is an agenda and a hidden motive for Global Warming to be accepted. I believe it is natural earth cycles as do a majority of scientists that actually are engaged in "earth science" or oceanographics or weather.

The media fall all over themselves in support of Global warming. Just listen to the tripe on NPR about it. Good Grief...
