That "Global Cooling" was based upon papers funded by the Oil Industry. No serious scientist thought cooling was even possible.

That information was showing up on TV paid by big oil to confuse the population, it worked.

Despite my above comment being modded to oblivion, I am trying to keep an open mind. I am not disputing that humans are responsible for a significant increase in CO2 levels over the past few decades. I'm keeping an open mind and looking at scientific media (and public media) that is both inaccurate and conflicted on both sides. At the very least, it's clear to me that the science is not "settled."

Please identify which of the three citations I made above are connected to the oil industry, and how. I've added more than two dozen more references below too. If there was some conspiracy on the part of the oil companies, please provide references.

Thanks.
