Answer 3

Answer 4

The reason they don't allow it is because it is such a complicated topic and you literally have to be an expert to be able to speak eloquently about it.  As you can see from the previous answers, no one understands the topic, so they are scared and automatically assume that it is not true and the environmentalists don't want a debate that confuses people even further.  If you haven't watched "An Inconvenient Truth" yet and you are still talking about the topic as if you know what you are talking about, you are not being fair to the topic, or yourself for that matter.

Answer 5

They do.  It's all over the media, and happens at many scientific conferences.  The problem is that the "skeptics" lose the scientific debates, not that there aren't any.  

The fact is that questioning the reality of man made global warming is exactly like people claiming that NASA faked the moon landings.  It's not like that they don't have plenty of opportunity to claim this publicly, it's that no one takes them seriously, because they've been proven flat wrong.
