Here are three of them:

Emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere are causing far less heating than the climate models have been predicting.

There is no scientifically reputable method for measuring the human contribution to carbon dioxide emissions relative to emissions from natural sources.

 Measured sea level rise in recent decades is insufficient to account for the alarmist forecasts about the amount of rise by the end of the century.
