Because this information supports the evidence that global climate change is not man made. Alarmist attribute warming to CO2 emissions.

Wonder how the Global Warming Alarmists can refute information like this.

This sort of thing is pretty easy for most people. Very very few adults adopt beliefs or positions from critical thinking or by weighing evidence. Virtually all of us come to our beliefs by adopting the beliefs of someone they admire (parents, a spouse, a TV idol, a professor, etc.). Then, for the rest of their lives, they just filter out any facts that don't align with their adopted beliefs.

This is a damn scary thought. If you're correct, It's no wonder that there is so much misinformation, bad government policy, and misguided efforts to "improve" society in the world.

Well since we are touting Patrick Moore's Greenpeace credentials to lend credibility to his statements, let's see what Greenpeace has to say about Patrick Moore:

Greenpeace said:
Patrick Moore often misrepresents himself in the media as an environmental “expert” or even an “environmentalist,” while offering anti-environmental opinions on a wide range of issues and taking a distinctly anti-environmental stance. He also exploits long-gone ties with Greenpeace to sell himself as a speaker and pro-corporate spokesperson, usually taking positions that Greenpeace opposes.

http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/news/greenpeace-statement-on-patric/

And Greenpeace's stance on climate change:

Greenpeace said:
Fossil fuels-coal, oil and natural gas-are major contributors to climate change, accounting for the vast majority of greenhouse gas emissions.

http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/global-warming/

I mean if we are going to quote Greenpeace, let's at least do it accurately.

This is the truth sad but true.
