Money.
Money.
Money.
Scientists need jobs. Businesses and politicians stand to make a lot of money from AGW through cap and trade as it will push energy production in a different direction. So it is a bad cycle. People argue that the oil industry pays off politicians and researchers for their gain - it should be no exception to believe that alternative energy companies are somehow more righeous.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
