Weird Science

Now this is something I was not expecting to see. Apparently, some Canadian scientists have gotten together and made a short documentary on a topic that everyone has heard about but few truly understand, the Kyoto Protocol.

Now anyone living in Canada for the past few years knows that Kyoto is the only way to save the world from complete and utter destruction, or so the Liberals tell us, but what's interesting about this documentary is that it's created by scientists who oppose Kyoto. Yes I said it, oppose Kyoto. To make the story even more interesting is that they have a list of other scientists who also disagree with Kyoto, some 17,500 of them. Yes, that's a 1, a 7 and a 5 followed by two 0's.

This appears to be related to a petition that's been around for a little while called The Heidelberg Appeal, which goes so far as to even state there is no scientific evidence to support the idea that the current global warming trends can be attributed to man. And they have over 4,000 signatures from scientists from around the world on that one.

The only problem getting this documentary on the air appears to be the fact that instead of using government grants or subsidies for this project, the scientists in question had the gall to use their own money, time and resources. That'll learn 'em.
