It doesn't require a Ph.D. in meteorology to notice that the Earth's climate is changing. I am not liberal and even I can admit that there is some crazy S. going on. Now whether or not humans are the main cause is debatable, but something is definitely changing. Without a stable Earth... securing the borders doesn't really matter.
Yes, climate is changing. It always has and always will. It has never been stable.
Is this your best effort? More insults about being a "flat-earther" if you disagree with the AGW dogma?
You keep mentioning the peer review process yet that has been shown to be politicized and corrupt time and time again.
“We need to get away from the notion, proven wrong on a daily basis, that peer review of any kind at any journal means that a work of science is correct. What it means is that a few (1-4) people read it over and didn’t see any major problems. That’s a very low bar in even the best of circumstances.” Wall Street Journal op-ed:
"I can't see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep
them out somehow – even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!"
Phil Jones to Michael Mann, Climategate emails, July 8th 2004.
Peer review is kinda like Hollywood voting on the Emmys. They are quite important to Hollywood, not so much to the rest of us.

"The old model of subscriptions is no longer viable, since government has taken control of academic research...."
And then people wonder why "academic research" supports bigger and bigger government. Follow the money.
For a guy who doesn't care about global warming, you seem almost obsessed with it.
Thousands of scientists and other experts contribute (on a voluntary basis, without paymentfrom the IPCC) to writing and reviewing reports, which are then reviewed by governments. IPCC reports contain a "Summary for Policymakers", which is subject to line-by-line approval by delegates from all participating governments. Typically this involves the governments of more than 120 countries.

And who pays these scientists salaries? They don't work for free.
BTW, you cannot peer review these studies from the ground up because they destroyed the original data. They can only review the studies using massaged data.

John Coleman has not published peer-reviewed research on climate change.
He has written numerous newspaper and blog articles skeptical of global warming.
So is this your best effort?
I listen to the scientists who said it stopped warming 18 years ago.

Stable earth?
Species adapt to the changing climate all the time or they die.
Been happening since the first bit of ooze started walking.
