And pseudoscience like "Global Warming" nothing but a tool of Socialism, designed to cripple the rich nations and redistribute their wealth to dictatorships that enslave and impoverish their people.
Hard to believe you could measure what did not exist.
Coincidence?
Not a scientistamong them, politicians maybe scientist's no. Anyone who believes in global warming caused exclusively or even significantly by man smokes way to much dope.
There is Global Cooling going on at night, at winter and the swings of temperature are hugh!!! It's the freakin' Sun you enviromorons!!!
They went and picked 400,000 years ago because that's about when modern humans came on the scene, and controlled fire is alleged to have first appeared.
The period also appears to have been a temperate age, but I'm not sure who they're blaming for the global warming that brought the world out of the ice age 200,000 years previous (600,000 BC).
That would be considered "killing the job".
Yes, they've considered the sun to be the source....and they're formulating how to deploy a giant space parasol to prevent it!
"Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is now at its highest level in 400,000 years and it continues to rise," said Cicerone, an atmospheric scientist who left as chancellor of University of California-Irvine to become academy president this month. "
Mr.Cicerone and the NAS should lead the way in ending global warming. No more driving their cars, using power from the national grid, not even burning candles because they put too much particulate matter in the air.
Oh, and no more wearing clothes that are not grown by them or killed by them. Farms use gas to run the tractors to get cotton. If they are wearing clothes of man made materials, they need to stop that too.
Looks like all they are left with is walking around in their birthday suits. Might get cold in the winter. Oh, I forgot... these people are exempt from anything that might deprive them and inhibit their learned words from getting out to us low life "humans".
What to do, what to do?
I'ts actually even worse than being treated as 'received wisdom.' I often hear it treated as religous edict. For most sciences in which most knowledge comes from evidence that is witnessed empirically, the scientists will be tenuous in their beliefs, and give credence to differing opinions. For some odd reason, most of the mentions I hear with respect to Global Warming tend to be of a nature similar to a pronouncement, with dissenters referred to as 'lone nuts' or 'extremists' or 'zealots.' Kind of tips me off...
Must be great to have a job where you get paid for making stuff up!
Looks like a cycle pattern to me.

"HUMANS MORE POWERFUL THAN SUN!"
Scientists: Humans cause global warming: so does cow farts.
