There has been a lot of controversy about the Kyoto protocol lately, and the issue has become a hot topic, particularly given the current political environment in Canada.  Leaving the political aspect aside (as I would ideally like to keep TF politics-free), the issue is whether or not there is some proven scientific evidence of man-made global warming.  Recently, a group of American scientists (over 17,000, to be more precise) have voiced their skepticism of the premises behind the Kyoto Protocol.  Over 4,000 scientists from around the world have done the same (the so-called Heidelberg Appeal).  This article captures some of the controversy, albeit with political undertones, but I would like to see both positions argued in a single scientific journal article, letting the readers come to their own conclusions.  While I am definitely not an expert on the subject, I would enjoy learning more (again from a scientific perspective). 

Perhaps this is a thread that Tyler Hamilton, the technology reporter of the Toronto Star, can pick up on.  Tyler has recently started another blog (on Blogware) called clean break, which is  focused on emerging trends, technologies and investment opportunities in the cleantech space.  Besides being the tech reporter/columnist for the Star, Tyler also writes a column with the same name and focus of his new blog, so I will be sure to check that site frequently.
