This claim always struck me as ludicrous. I’ve never taught, but I recall that no one in the science departments at UT were pulling down lavish paychecks. Now, with coaches it’s a different story.

Thanks for laying out the matter so clearly and succinctly.

[...] Piles of scientific evidence exist that have convinced 98% of climate scientists that global warming is occuring and that it is caused by man’s activities. Why, then, do some Americans continue to deny the whole idea of global warming? From presidential candidates to average Americans, some people continue to oppose scientific evidence. These people either claim “it’s natural warming” (of course, they are neither scientists nor historians), or they claim that scientists make huge money off of fears of global warming http://profmandia.wordpress.com/2010/03/11/taking-the-money-for-granted-%E2%80%93-part-i/ [...]

I’m sure Al Gore is getting rich either. Still awaiting one solid piece of evidence that mankind causes global warming. The earth has warmed and cooled innumberable times over millions of years without industry to blame it on. Cycles are just that…cycles. I think you gents should take solar activity more into you contrived computer models.

Peter, jb was just cataloguing a few to answer Stirling English’s question ….

“where are these -accusations- that scientists are making shedloads of money being made? I read the blogs and can’t remember seeing one.”

Plenty of accusations, but as you note, not one of them offers any proof about the oodles of money apparently floating in the air around these *rich* scientists.
