Really ?

The more I look at alleged global warming the more cracks I see in the
flimsy
IPCC case.

I don't think anyone disputes that the globe is getting warmer.

No one except people that don't think averaging temperatures
from different locations is meaningful.

It's the
allegation that human activity is the primary cause of global warming that
is disputed, and rightly so.

Human activity is causing heat islands, even by doing
things the "scientists" don't consider, like making so many "dry" areas
which are not constantly cooled by evaporation.

And adjusting or modifying data sets is silly, but a
necessity in order to try to maintain the meaningless averaging of
temperatures.

Regardless, ethanol production is needed, and the more the
better.
