Yes, there is actually a real "handbook" on how to be a climate skeptic. (and conveniently available in 30 languages and some nice pictures!)
It says the bottom line and the only thing that matters (really the only thing?) is if adding more CO2 makes the world warmer. The very first error on oage 2 claims that anthropogenic's definition is human CO2 emissions are the cause. There is a bit more to it than that. The guide gives no citations as to what or where their graphs or maps are of. They are completely ignoring that
the very worst quote was: "The sun wont put out more light just because we put out more carbon."
I cringed the whole time reading this. The worst thing was that the author was a lecturer at a university for SCIENCE COMMUNICATION.
I won't and don't want to give it a reference like it is a real published piece of literature, but you may follow the link above to take a look.
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE THERE IS A REBUTTAL AVAILABLE!
