Nobel Laureate Says Obama's 'Dead Wrong' on Global Warming
Newsmax ^ | 07 Jul 2015 | Melanie Batley

A Nobel Prize-winning scientist who supported President Barack Obama has said that he does not believe global warming is a problem, and has openly criticized the president for his position on the issue.

"I would say that basically global warming is a non-problem," Dr. Ivar Giaever announced during a speech at the 65th Nobel Laureate Conference in Lindau, Germany, last week, according to Climate Depot.

Quoting Obama's warning that "no challenge poses a greater threat to future generations than climate change," Giaever said it was a "ridiculous statement."

"I say this to Obama: Excuse me, Mr. President, but you're wrong. Dead wrong," he said,

"This guy is in for a surprise when he is audited by the IRS, surveiled by the NSA, sued for any reason whatsoever and loses his pension. This is how the Agenda 21/NWO crowd treats climate change deniers."

True. And if he were to start getting real traction with the wider public, worse than that would happen to him.

Just because leftists like Obama say something doesn’t mean they actually believe it themselves. I suspect usually they don’t. They just throw out different BS they want the population to believe.

Since he is Norwegian, I guess he doesn’t worry about the IRS, NSA, or any other American alphabet soup department. His being 86, means he probably would give a flying you know what even if he were American.

The first graph shows a change in temperature of about 7/10ths of ONE degree over a 125 year period. It is on a “shocking” chart that has been drawn to show an ALARMING, steep rise from right to left.

In reality, a less than one degree rise over 125 years, even if true which is debatable, should be portrayed across the span of surface temperatures one would normally see on the surface: between about 30 below zero to 130 degrees.

That increase over 125 years would look like this:

A virtual straight line with a barely detectable rise.

"no challenge poses a greater threat to future generations than climate change,"

That was Obama's statement. I guess it depends on what you mean by future generations. If you mean 1 million AD, then perhaps climate is dramatically different.

If you're talking a hundred years from now, then I think the professor is dead on correct and the president again looks like a stooge.

It was a conference of all Nobel prize winners and included many who didn't win in a science field. The vast majority of those who didn't win the prize in a science field didn't sign.

Of the 36 attending who won the Nobel in science, 35 signed and one(Ivar) didn't.

And considering all the potential natural contributors to that supposed less than one degree rise, plus the 'normal' climate/temperature back-and-forth swings over that time, it's even more ridiculous.

"...Obama's warning that "no challenge poses a greater threat to future generations than climate change..."

Wrong right off the bat. A collapsed world economy, brought on by global taxation to raise money to fight "global warming" will cause misery, death and environmental disasters the like of which we have not seen in generations.

That is the threat to future generations.

The point being .... The Weather Channel has no clue.

Holy crap, I'm usually out by bed by 4:30 a.m. every day and on weekends, there is no local news at that time so I tune in to the Weather Channel.

Somewhere between the 4:30 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. time slot, they have a program dedicated to severe weather which they unabashedly blame on man made global warming..........

Talk about propaganda, this station goes all out.........

You are entitled to your opinion and as such, you can post articles such as this one that doesn't tell the whole story.

It makes good copy to say that this one man didn't sign, but Newsmax(AND YOU) are being dishonest to not mention that it was 35 to 1.

See, See! They weren't 100% unanimous, only 97.2% unanimous.

To: To Hell With Poverty

Nobel physicist Dr. Giaever joins nearly EVERY meteorologist as an “anthropogenic globe warming” skeptic!!!!

But it is more a cult than a religion, and a giant SCAM to force the world into a global dictatorship with massive poverty!!!!
