Hi CERN recently reported in Nature an experiment demonstrating possible role of cosmic rays in cloud formation. Here's Nature's summary and comment on the study, including cautions about over-interpreting results:
http://www.nature.com/news/2011/110824/full/news.2011.504.html By the time it gets to the conservative press, cosmic rays have been shown by science to be responsible for all global warming. Here's one oft-cited report: http://www.financialpost.com/opinion/columnists/Science+settled/5315908/story.html Several interesting phenomena at work. 1. Quite blatant over-interpretation of the study, despite plain English summary put out by Nature warning against just that. 2. Willingness to accept scientific findings (or perhaps incidental that they are scientific findings) that confirm their doubts about human instigated global warming, despite heated criticisms of science when its findings did not conform. 3. FP article alludes to cover-up and attempts to stifle release of story, which perhaps has the purpose of undermining Nature's warnings and rebuttals from the scientific community of the cosmic ray explanation for global warming.
