It is, and that's the scientific, empirically determined and accepted (except by people who have no understanding of science) fact.And said Global Warming was man made.

Name two who are not on the payroll of industry or the Republican National Committee (same thing I think).There are lots of scientists who do not agree that global warming is man made. Some of the scientists currently stating that global warming is man made were predicting a new ice age back in 71. They seem to have been wrong with that one too.

No. But that the way it always seems to turn out.So, from your view point anyone who does not fully accept the idea that global warming is man made must be on the payroll of the RNC.
Richard Littlemore:The celebrated research by Dr. Klaus-Martin Schulte, claiming that a legitimate debate still continues over the science behind climate change, is "a bit patchy and nothing new," according to Sonja Boehmer-Christiansen , editor of the Energy and Environment journal to which Schulte had submitted the work for publication.
It is "not what was of interest to me" and will not be published, Boehmer Christiansen said (in email correspondence reproduced in full at the end of this post). (Thus, it turns out that the only way you could justify calling Schulte's work "peer-reviewed" is by pointing out that his biggest fan, Christopher Walter, is the Third Viscount Monckton of Brenchley - a British peer.)
Boehmer-Christiansen's actual interest was in what she calls Schulte's "research findings on the effect on patients of climate alamism/'Angst'." The good doctor (Schulte is an endocrinologist) has been quoted saying that his interest was sparked because some of his young patients are growing increasingly frightened by the public conversation about the potential effects of climate change. This, of course, demonstrates that Schulte's patients are intelligent and well-informed.
If he actually has any valid research (beyond the realm of the anecdotal hunch), it will be interesting to see it. I just hope that we get to read it in a legitimate journal - after an appropriate scientific review - rather than having it foisted upon us, once again, by the legion of public relations people (Monckton, Morano, et al ) whose goal is to obfuscate the science and confuse the public on behalf of their oily benefactors.
Dr.Sonja A.Boehmer-Christiansen:For your information, I have informed Dr.Schulte that I am happy to publish his own research findings on the effect on patients of climate alamism/'Angst'. His survey of papers critical of the consensus was a bit patchy and nothing new, as you point out. it was not what was of interest to me; nothing has been published.
