4. Mary Ziviani: Sceptic scientists can doubt the CO2-AGW connection is proven, but they do not prove that it is not connected.
   In Grist Magazine, Dr Stuart Jordan formerly of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, and Thomas O'Brien, production editor of the Astrophysical Journal for the Institute of Physics (U.K.) did a thorough analysis of the US Senate Minority Report, and concluded that (to 2009) the Report’s stance was not credible, while they recognized the need for further data.
