Exxon is going to profit with or without climate legislation, it's the consumer that will pay the cost of it. Considering they are major developer of gas fields which is the only thing that will replace coal they could expand their operations exponentially.
Gas is not the only thing that can replace coal. Not by a long shot. Hopefully our government will stop selling us out and admit this.
The fact that science deniers believe anti-science conspiracy blogs like 'Steve Goddard' and Breitbart journalists like James Delingpole are valid sources and never fact-check any of the ridiculous conspiratorial accusations, yet automatically reject valid science sources out of hand, pretty much says it all about their extreme confirmation bias, their self-imposed ignorance, and their willingness to delude themselves.
I've long wondered what pathology is at work, it goes beyond mere scientific illiteracy. There is something else that causes these people to reject science, I'm very curious just what exactly that is.

It's you people who are rejecting science. Science dictates that you question EVERYTHING. The AGW'ers don't question anything, they just believe what they are told like they have been raised to do.

Using junk science to question actual science isn't questioning anything, it is just believing in junk. More often than not, these threads that try to disprove global warming are based off of junk.
To go with your post though, why don't you question the research that was used to discredit global warming? It is because you agree with the OP and don't want it to be proven wrong?

"reject science"?
Do you mean question the cult of AGW? AGW is far from actual science- it is a political movement fueled by spurious data and propagated by a cult of individuals who have no idea as to what constitutes valid science. Junk science of AGW is not actual science- far from it.
How many of you AGW cult members on this site are actual scientists or who have advanced degrees in an area of science? My bet is that number is ZERO.
Liberals always wrap themselves in the cloak of "science" whenever it can be twisted to suit thier political agenda. However, these same liberals are the first to reject science when it does not.
1. Libs, in contrast to what the science says, feel GMOs are unsafe.
2. Many liberals oppose vaccinations; however the science says that the benefit far outweigh side effects.
3. Many liberals support the use of herbal medicines; however the science shows that most herbal meds sold do not even contain the advertised "drug".
4. Many liberals support accupuncture; however, the science shows that the effect is the same as sham accupunture.
5. The majority of those who believe in astrology are liberals.

I don't know why this has to be explained to anyone, but climate change isn't like your favorite movie or whether Coke tastes better than Pepsi-- not everyone's opinion is equally valid.
If you don't trust the people who know what they're doing, then your opinion is worthless. Science doesn't dictate that you listen to professional liars or just go with what feels right to you.

Why wouldn't we? Who actually gives breitbart a shred of credibility other than low information people and the Fox News crowd?
Youll find plenty of those here.
If there's nothing to the story then it should be easy to explain the discrepancy in the maps.
