Critics point to mistakes, e-mail theft to raise doubts on research; poll shows less public concern<\/strong><\/p>\n

A series of highly publicized errors in a landmark report about manmade global warming – and lingering controversy over hacked e-mails between climate scientists – is eroding public confidence in the research and could further stall efforts in Congress to pass climate legislation.<\/p>\n

The errors – involving projections, citations of source materials, and geography – have been seized on by skeptics of the scientific consensus that the burning of fossil fuels is almost certainly the most significant cause of earth\u2019s rising temperature. Now, there are signs the critics are succeeding at raising doubts.<\/p>\n

In recent weeks, Texas, Virginia, and Alabama officials filed challenges to the Environmental Protection Agency\u2019s finding that manmade greenhouse gases threaten public health, and Senator Jay Rockefeller, a Democrat from the coal state of West Virginia, introduced a bill to postpone for two years EPA rules stemming from that determination.<\/p>\n

Republican senators have pointed to the errors as another reason to oppose a climate bill, spearheaded by Senator John F. Kerry, that would limit carbon dioxide emissions.
