second , I don’t think they are paid money to tell us lies, actually it’s the opposite scientists who say global warming is true are the ones who get paid

By who? The govts who have dragged their heels in dealing with climate change?

The huge and wealthy solar and wind power conglomerates, who wish to make millions selling us sun and wind?

By the hippies at the fruit, granola, and Birkenstock stand?

Where, exactly, does that trail of money lead?

According to the U.S. Dept. of Labor the median salary for petroleum geologists is $108,020 per year, for climate researchers the median salary is $81,290 per year. Keep in mind climate researchers have to stay in school longer to get advanced degrees, then do postdoctoral work at poverty level wages for several years after graduating. If climate researchers were in it for the money they would be petroleum geologists.

From January 2009 through June 2009 energy companies spent more than $540 million lobbying the Federal Government. Indeed, rogue scientists get paid very well for denying climate change. (Climate Progress, 2010)

Does anyone seen “age of the stupid”? humanity can saves themselves but they did not. We can see the effects of Global Warming now and others intend to mislead us telling it’s just a hoax. It’s for us to decide if we will save ourselves then..

topics like this are highly questioned by scientists or ordinary people, this is like “moon landing” and 9/11 that means skepticism is part of the human nature,

TIME OUT Phi !
Have you just implied that “theories” of AnthropogenicGlobalWarming are something like moon landing hoaxers?
What is it that is “highly questioned by scientists”?
You have me very confused here.

i still don’t understand why the industrial countries are preventing the African countries from exploiting their natural resources , are we waiting for A second “scramble to Africa ” .

Perhaps, because they are too busy taking those natural resources for themselves??
