Government Funded?  Not Me, Guv'nor!

it has only been possible to find one scientist, worldwide, who
supports catastrophic warming&isn't clearly government funded

- so says Nick Craig in his blog a-place-to-stand.

Ah!  A challenge!  I do so love a challenge!

I most definitely do not 'support catastrophic warming' - that would be crazy! 

Of course, his statement may refer to people who, having reviewed all of the scientific evidence of which they can avail themselves, support the view that our planet is going through a period of global warming highly likely to lead to catastrophe.  If that is the case, then: Neil, I'm your man.

Or maybe not.  I live on a state pension, with no other income except a few cents from blogging.  Now, IF state pension = government funded, THEN my articles about climate science are government funded.  But then, so are denier comments submitted by anyone who subsists on state welfare.

How about my readers?
Given the statement:

"evidence exists for a global warming trend highly likely to lead to catastrophic climate change"

Are there any non government-funded scientists out there who endorse the above statement?
