The National Science Foundation has spent more than $400,000 on a study that published scientific results on the "relationship between gender and glaciers."
The paper "Glaciers, gender, and science," published in January 2016, concluded that "ice is not just ice," urging scientists to take a "feminist political ecology and feminist postcolonial" approach when they study melting ice caps and climate change.
"Glaciers are key icons of climate change and global environmental change," the paper by Mark Carey, a professor at the University of Oregon, explained. "However, the relationships among gender, science, and glaciers–particularly related to epistemological questions about the production of glaciological knowledge - remain understudied."
"Merging feminist postcolonial science studies and feminist political ecology, the feminist glaciology framework generates robust analysis of gender, power, and epistemologies in dynamic social-ecological systems, thereby leading to more just and equitable science and human-ice interactions," the paper said.

Apparently there was a section on “human-rocks interaction”.
Well, as an old geologist-wannabe, I can think of some:
“Getting your rocks off”.
“Getting stoned”
“Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” (oh the images of this)
If there are no camels around, you can always “Rock the Casbah”.
“Heart Cold as Stone”
“Rock Me Tender”.
“Hot Rocks”
These people need to be de-funded and laughed out of existence.
Idiocracy has arrive.
I’m pretty sure the Pope said in his encyclical that gender discrimination causes global warming. He said lots of stupid things.
WHAT; could you please say that in something resembling english and common sense
