What Consensus?

James P. Hogan was a digital systems engineer who gave it up to write several very good science fiction novels. He argues that there is no consensus on global warming in the scientific community. And if that interests you read this.

Man-made global warming is nothing but fear mongering. Its a means to achieve a political end.

I really like Hogan's stuff, but his monomania about Velikovskianism makes me wonder if he doesn't have a touch of late-onset schizophrenia...

I can see that. His novels are hit and miss with me. Some I really like [Mirror Maze, The Multiplex Man] others I get a couple of chapters into then get distracted by another book. He is kinda formula with his world destroyed then rebuilt bit. It may be just he's found something that sells and sticks with it.
