and I first referenced doran by at most page 165 of this thread....
see the quote I took from that page below.
and even on page 250... your point still made no sense. no one was denying he was the author of a study.
I am not sure you even understand the point of this argument. so I will explain it for you.
Fraudcurrents thinks science can be one by misrepresenting facts and pretending there is a consensus...
We say its the science that matters and there is no science saying man made co2 causes warming... and on top of that the so called consensus is a misrepresentation.

The doran survey is a joke....
it was another 75 out 77 agw nutter survey.
And it does not claim that man made co2 is causing the warming
you are getting very low fc... very low.

So where did that famous âconsensusâ claim that â98% of all scientists believe in global warmingâ come from? It originated from an endlessly reported 2009 American Geophysical Union (AGU) survey consisting of an intentionally brief two-minute, two question online survey sent to 10,257 earth scientists by two researchers at the University of Illinois. Of the about 3.000 who responded, 82% answered âyesâ to the second question, which like the first, most people I know would also have agreed with.
Then of those, only a small subset, just 77 who had been successful in getting more than half of their papers recently accepted by peer-reviewed climate science journals, were considered in their survey statistic. That â98% all scientistsâ referred to a laughably puny number of 75 of those 77 who answered âyesâ.
That anything-but-scientific survey asked two questions. The first: âWhen compared with pre-1800s levels, do you think that mean global temperatures have generally risen, fallen, or remained relatively constant?â Few would be expected to dispute thisâ¦the planet began thawing out of the âLittle Ice Ageâ in the middle 19th century, predating the Industrial Revolution. (That was the coldest period since the last real Ice Age ended roughly 10,000 years ago.)
The second question asked: âDo you think human activity is a significant contributing factor in changing mean global temperatures?â So what constitutes âsignificantâ? Does âchangingâ include both cooling and warming⦠and for both âbetterâ and âworseâ? And which contributionsâ¦does this include land use changes, such as agriculture and deforestation?
