It is perpetuated by University PhDs looking to continue their cozy grants awarded by whatever political system that feeds them. My view: until proven otherwise: Global Warming is just Al Gore and global politicians trying to rape decent people for some more tax dollars, and PhDs trying to stay university employed despite science fact.
