Hmmmmm. Nothing fishy going on here. Just normal climate ‘science’.

Answer: Infinitesimal The IPCC now agrees. See the IPCC Technical Report section entitled Global Warming Potential (GWP). And the GWP for CO2? Just 1, (one), unity, the lowest of all GHG. What’s more, all greenhouse gases combined constitute just 1% of the atmosphere. Of that 1%, water vapor, the most powerful greenhouse gas, makes ups 40% of the total. Carbon dioxide is 1/10th of that amount, an insignificant .04%. If carbon dioxide levels were cut in half to 200PPM, all plant growth would stop according to agricultural scientists. It's no accident that commercial green house owner/operators invest heavily in CO2 generators to increase production, revenues and profits. Prof. Michael Mann's Bristlecone tree proxy data proves nothing has done more to GREEN (verb) the planet over the past few decades than moderate sun-driven warming (see solar inertial motion) together with elevated levels of CO2, regardless of the source. None of these facts have been reported in the national media. Why?

The researcher should have never acted in manner that would raise questions as to the fundamental integrity of his research and being cleared by a government panel in country where environmental concerns have more political weight than here also raises the specter that their actions were more politically motivated than scientifically.
