And my point was that there is no expert name to trust or not
under discussion here.

You want me to trust the media who tell us that all experts
agree on global warming, not the "experts". 

BTW, how much expertise does it take to measure the temperture
at several points deep enough in the ocean to have an idea how
the global temperature has been drifting over the last 100-200
years. Oops, no records going that far back, just last decade
or two? But the reason must be something with economical
implications, sure, no chance the Sun has been more active or
whatever, let's just extrapolate the single point we have as
it suits us.
 Do not misunderstand me, I am not saying I know there is no
global warming.
 What I am saying is that it is just a waste of time to listen
to what the propaganda (oops, the media) says about that.
 Just as it is a waste of time to listen to them about nuclear
power/safety; what we will get will likely be agenda.
 The reality the media present today and which most people
believe simply because this is the easiest way to live is 
so distorted that it takes no Hari Seldon to predict this 
is bound to end in a major crisis. I have seen similar symptoms
already two decades or more ago and I must say things happening
globally today remind me those days more than I would like
(but hey, don't take me for an expert, I have no degree
in psychohistory... :-).
