    <p>Hi Allan<br>
    </p>
    <p>Science that can't be questioned is dogma and not science.  Over
      the years I have switched back and forth between believing and not
      believing Al Gores climate change thesis.  What can we ever know
      for certain?<br>
    </p>
    <p>Promoters of climate change dogma in my experience never address
      the concerns of so called climate change deniers which include one
      of the activist founders of Greenpeace.</p>
    <p>Some of the points that I have never heard addressed are: <br>
    </p>
    <ol>
      <li>Past data shows that there is a correlation between carbon and
        temperature but correlation is not causation. </li>
      <li> climate change predictions are based on models which have to
        be proven by real world data and there is lots of real world
        data that do not support the models.   eg.  the highest
        temperature in London was 30 or 40 years ago. (working from
        memory)</li>
      <li>anecdotal extreme weather accounts, often cherry picked are
        not scientific evidence and do not prove model predictions.<br>
      </li>
    </ol>
    <p>I wish the promoters of climate change would be more concerned
      with addressing these issues rather than with seeking doctrinal
      purity of Al Gores global warming thesis.</p>
    <p>At any rate Peterson does not fly around the world in his private
      jets as do the Davos crowd who hypocritically say they will save
      us from climate disaster if we obey without question.    Its not
      what we say that causes environmental destruction it is what we
      do.  I think that our biggest concern at present should be the
      social Darwinist inclinations of the billionaire class. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Calling Peterson a Nihilist is especially rich. <br>
    </p>
