Climate-deniers are afraid that their quest for profits and wealth will be curtailed. It's just short-term, self-interests being put ahead of the long-term general good for everyone.

What a crock. I am a "denier" and I have no financial interest whatsoever "at stake". Al Gore, et al, however, have tremendous profits "at stake", yet you blindly, and dare I say, ignorantly, overlook that fact. Sad, but true.

The debate is over. Mankind is altering the climate; we are as certain of that as we are that the Earth is round and it orbits the Sun.
Uh, I don't know how to break this to you gently, but the earth is not round which sets the tone for the entire post.

You have to keep in mind that the AGW/ACC ("Anthropogenic Climate Change") crowd isn't exactly scientifically informed. They're prone to succumb to brainwashing via propaganda methods that manipulate their emotions.

Have you ever taken calculus? It's used to determine the area(2D) or volume(3D) of irregular shapes. The earth's shape is that of an irregular sphere.

These fools can't tell you what the weather is going to be next month........but they know California and the east coast will be underwater in twenty years................

FOLLOW THE GRANT MONEY AND FIND THE LIES.

If a warmer owns anything made in China........then they are frauds as they caused the so called problem that they complain about. What a bunch of fools

It's a political movement, not a scientific movement, hence the solutions.
