More than 300 scientists have urged President Trump to withdraw from the U.N.’s climate change agency, warning that its push to curtail carbon dioxide threatens to exacerbate poverty without improving the environment. In a Thursday letter to the president, MIT professor emeritus Richard Lindzen called on the United States and other nations to “change course on an outdated international agreement that targets minor greenhouse gases,” starting with carbon dioxide. “Since 2009, the US and other governments have undertaken actions with respect to global climate that are not scientifically justified and that already have, and will continue to cause serious social and economic harm — with no environmental benefits,” said Mr. Lindzen, a prominent atmospheric physicist. Signers of the attached petition include the U.S. and international atmospheric scientists, meteorologists, physicists, professors and others taking issue with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change [UNFCCC], which was formed in 1992 to combat “dangerous” climate change. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/feb/23/hundreds-scientists-urge-trump-withdraw-un-climate/
300 scientists is more than the 77 scientists out of 79 in the Doran/Zimmerman study that provided the "97% Consensus".
So what, no one cares what coal fed Lindzen and few Trumptard non-climate scientists say. No publishing climate scientist denies man made global warming. Not even the fool Lindzen. For a list of the wrong things Lindzen has said. https://www.skepticalscience.com/skeptic_Richard_Lindzen.htm One just has to laugh at the sources the Trumptards go to.
Lindzenhas published work with the conservative think-tank, the Cato Institute, a think tank that has received $125,000 from ExxonMobil since 1998. In his 1995 article, “The Heat Is On,” Ross Gelbspan notes that Lindzen charged oil and coal organizations $2,500 per day for his consulting services.

once again a science free argument from an agw nutter who sells greenhouse gases for a living. and the funny thing is, if you look at Lindzens quotes you can see the arguments against them are almost all contrived. for instance when he made his quote in 2012 about seeing no warming. That was a 100% statistically accurate statement. Remember it was pre pause buster.
While i havent yet done much testing, I think I can say with 100% accuracy it is a hell of alot less under Trump.
