Commie science. And, as far as I can tell, Holden is not a biologist.

Lysenkoism at its best - the opposite of science.

He argued that opposing the politicization of science “gives people the permission to say things like ‘climate change may be real, but I don’t think we should have government regulation to deal with it,’ which is unacceptable…”

Pure normative science. He’ll destroy the journals he is responsible for. It will take time but it will happen as more and more research is accepted that does overt issue advocacy and policy outcomes.

At one of the higher ed institutions that we support, the Science and Math departments no longer allow student research to use references from Nature, Scientific American, and the Lancet as they are now openly expressing a bias to normative science.

“(only 7.83 years left)”

Maybe he has only 7.83 years left.

“[A]s far as I can tell, Holden is not a biologist.”

He’s not. Nor does he qualify as a scientist in any meaningful way at all, apparently. But he’s pulling a paycheck in spite of all that. The world’s in a sorry state.

Commie science.

It's the new science. You start with the theory, and then you make sure all the data and conclusions support your theory.

That editor should be fired.

If not then the rag has transitioned from a science journal to a political science journal.

I think Holden was a fictonal character on the Frasier TV show.

Yeah, Holden Thorp.

Holden is a chemist who was involved in at least two failed start-ups. Seems that one of his great talents is self-promotion.

I remember reading several years ago that some temp sensors were placed near parking lots which gave higher temp readings causing bad data.

Scientists should publish on PLOS or arXiv.

Old News. The East Anglia emails showed clearly that they were colluding to prevent any scientific paper that dared question their over the top Gaia worship from being published in any of the scientific journals.

Again, the parallel with Nazi Germany. The sciences became tools of the state. There was no longer biology, there was Nazi biology. Same with chemistry and physics. Read Shirer’s RISE AND FALL.

Climate change is now beyond scientific discussion. It is purely a political issue. The left uses it to shape legislation and regulations. It is now thier political dogma.

This is why the current assault on all applications of natural gas, the most abundant and cheap “fossil fuel”. But methane, the main gas component, is found throughout the solar system. There are oceans of it on the moons of Saturn...and no fossils lived there.
