Richard S. Lindzen, Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is quoted as saying
“...I assert that there is no substantive basis for predictions of sizeable global warming due to observed increases in minor greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and chlorofluorocarbons..”
“Recently many people have said that the earth is facing a crisis requiring urgent action. This statement has nothing to do with science.”
But wait a minute! Here comes Andrew C. Revkin to set the record straight !!
“ ...the evidence pointing to a growing human contribution to global warming is so broad and deep that the hacked material is unlikely to erode the overall argument”.
So never mind all that evidence of collusion and fraud. According to a bio from NASA, Mr. Revkin has a biology degree from Brown University and a masters in journalism from Columbia and is also a songwriter and guitarist, occasionally accompanying Pete Seeger at regional festivals.
Bump
The documents will undoubtedly raise questions about the quality of research on some specific questions and the actions of some scientists. But the evidence pointing to a growing human contribution to global warming is so broad and deep that the hacked material is unlikely to erode the overall argument.
What's with the unconscious understatement?
Call it what it is: fraud, and conspiracy to perpetrate fraud. Destroying data that would prove the fraud and conspiracy.
These so-called scientists had better start looking for new employment.
I would recommend politics. They seem to have the mind set, the absence of character and the criminal skills to go far in that profession.
Al Gore, Nobel muckamuck, is sadly saddened (all the way to the bank.)
The only real problem the Chicken Littles have with this is that they could not get their taxes in place before the world realized the earth is just fine, to show us that our tax dollars to the cause of global warm...climate cha...whatever worked and we can be on to the next problem that, guess what, more taxes will solve.
Climate change fraud bump for later............
