You can bet your last dollar that when politicians get involved, and try to influence public opinion on a topic, the driving force behind it is money and power. And if you do not fall in line and become a part of the group-think mentality, you are going to have a hard time getting funding to prove otherwise. There are numerous world re-known scientists that have been pushed out of their fields and out of academia all-together because they did not fall lock-step with the climate change crowd. Just the fact that this happens is enough for me to distrust man-made, world-ending, life-as-we-know-it-is-over climate change.
