WASHINGTON (AP) — The president's new science adviser said Wednesday that global warming is so dire, the Obama administration is discussing radical technologies to cool Earth's air. John Holdren told The Associated Press in his first interview since being confirmed last month that the idea of geoengineering the climate is being discussed.

One such extreme option includes shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays. Holdren said such an experimental measure would only be used as a last resort.

"It's got to be looked at," he said. "We don't have the luxury of taking any approach off the table."

Doesn’t Obama know it’s not right to mess with Mother Nature? He may be taking on something that could seriously alter the earth’s climate. If people live in climates that the winters are below zero and the summers are up to 100 degrees, why can’t people accomodate a temperature increase of 1/2 of a degree? I have read that the earth’s temperature peaked in 1998 and hasn’t went up since. Why is Obama’s scientist so intent on his path to the earth’s demise?

remember: Security guarantees by THIS MAN would provide the force that might prevent Israel from feeling the need to strike Iran, as they continue work on nukes.

THINK THAT OVER, in the coming months, because I guarantee you that OTHERS ARE, TOO...

Governments do such a great job engineering the economy, so we should we doubt its ability to engineer the climate?

Gawd. He’s the ‘stereotypical professor’, isn’t he? Bet that jacket has elbow patches and his feet are shod with brown Hush Puppies with rubber soles.

It was snowing on and off in Connecticut today. Where's all that warming the meat-heads are talking about?

shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays.

During a period with no sun flares? When we are in a cooling trend? The worst cooling trend in 200 years? Um........ok. But you know how freepers run around jokingly saying "We're all gonna DIE!". With these idiots in control, we might.

Is this after he lowers the sea levels?

Unlike President Ronald Reagan's "Star Wars" idea, this one will NEVER Work.
