[asa] Why the opposition to global warming

On your blog, Randy you ask "Why the opposition to global warming".
Late yesterday and again this morning the online version of the National
Post leads off with the headline

The real deal?
Against the grain: Some scientists deny global warming exists.

With the experts on climate change weighing in, the Post talks to
scientists who go against conventional...

Further down they have:
# Global warming likely caused by humans
# Video: Suzuki reacts to climate report

The National IMHO is Canada's best paper which is not saying a lot. We
used to have much better news papers, however, they have gone down hill
in the last ten to twenty years. Too many do not seem to be able to
tell the difference between news and editorials.

The ten part series they write starts out at:
http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/story.html?id=c6a32614-f906-4597-993d-f181196a6d71&k=0

If people read just the headlines let alone some of the lead articles
and the above series it appears that climate warming is not well
supported, at least the human causation factor. David Suzuki might
convince people otherwise, however, some people will say that if Suzuki
thinks global warming is real then it must be at best marginal or even a
hoax. IMHO he has cried wulf too many times.
