Man-made global warming is a lie and not backed up by science, claims leading meteorologist.

You Can Prove a Negative

Can't prove a negative? Sure you can!
Published on September 15, 2011 by Stephen Law, Ph.D. in Believing Bull

"One reason that some people suppose science and reason are incapable of establishing beyond reasonable doubt that certainsupernatural claims—for example, that fairies or angels or spirit beings exist—are false, is that they assume you can't prove a negative. Indeed this is widely supposed to be some sort of "law of logic."

You just don't understand science!
Then prove there's no invisible fire breathing dragon in my garage

Now that is a very specific claim and we're going to have to tussle with the burden of proof but I will admit I made the first claim. I would settle for any peer reviewed scientific research article which draws a conclusion one way or the other on it. So let's cooperate and share anything either of us finds which meets the standard.
Better get used to doing your research on denier websites then, because it would blow the roof off of AGW.

I'm still waiting for you to prove global warming is caused by man.
As as you accomplish that, I'll get right to work on your request!
There is no amount of evidence anyone could provide that would prove it to someone like you because you're not a skeptic, you're a denier, we've been over this a hundred times

You're right, we have been over this numerous times and there is nothing you will accept that the science isn't settled, even when peer reviewed studies are provided, you bury your head in the sand.

I get it though, it's a religion to you and your kind.

Can you prove I don't own an invisible fire breathing dragon?
Yes. If you can't measure it, it fails the test for scientific falsification (cf. Popper...and maybe Kuhn)

Do you know how many charged particles enter the atmosphere through the North pole and other breaches?

Solid black lines trace the outer boundaries of Earth's magnetic field. Note the layer of relatively dense material beneath the tips of the white arrows; that is solar wind entering Earth's magnetic field through the breach. Credit: Jimmy Raeder/UNH.

Although the explosion happened inside Earth's magnetic field, it was actually a release of energy from the sun. When the solar wind stretches Earth's magnetic field, it stores energy there, in much the same way energy is stored in a rubber band when you stretch it between thumb and forefinger. Bend your forefinger and—crack!—the rubber band snaps back on your thumb. Something similar happened inside the magnetotail on Feb. 26, 2008. Over-stretched magnetic fields snapped back, producing a powerful explosion. This process is called "magnetic reconnection" and it is thought to be common in stellar and planetary magnetic fields.
http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2008/24jul_plasmabullets/

I've 'heard' some differing positions, but I am willing to accept this "magnetic reconnection" hypothesis for the moment. At this juncture, can it be sufficiently stated charged particles enter the atmosphere, sometimes in amounts capable of enveloping the planet?
Note: this is not a quantitative point of question, yet. It is strictly a qualitative foundation.

I'll give you credit for being the only one here to have almost cited decent research but you consistently misunderstand your own citations and they end up actually supporting the IPCC position. You also omit links when you do. Nonetheless I'll give you props for providing peer reviewed citations. The only smart guy on your side (Heckler) made a good point.

So here is a chance for you guys to actually get some momentum. Because let's face it, the only reason these threads are constantly shifting through talking points is that we keep destroying all of the talking points you guys resort to.

pffft
charged particles and magnetic fields do not exist!!

So does anyone have any citation concluding one way or the other regarding a correlation between the climate and the rotational axis?

Oh a bunch of copy pasted citations you expect me to look at, even though you didn't.

Come on, play along, which part of that wall of text leads me to what the scientists actually say?
