Translation: I really need a bigger boat, and a few more global warmscam grants would do the trick!

I notice there’s no mention of humility about whether they fully understand the mechanisms of the planet and can therefore predict how changes in CO2 will affect the climate.

Freeman Dyson suggested that simple land manangement efforts is all that is necessary. Some fairly benign stuff could shut the effers up about C02 forever.

Or even genetically designed plants that absorb more C02.

I like ways that do not impact the economy, and could shut the SOB’s up about C02.

And I suggest that we do our best to stop the whales from congregating near the beach in Mexico. It’s just wrong.

Can I prove it’s wrong? No, but it just is.

Man didn’t cause it, but man has to stop it.

Now, let’s get to work...

Don’t worry. Everything will be OK because it will be done by non-profits.

I almost wish the next overdue ice age would come just to show these idiots what fools they sound like.

Who ever thinks that man can intervene in the climate is just a plain idiot, moron, and fool all rolled into one. It doesn’t matter if they have a Ph.D. or ten of them.

Molecular biologist met here 35 years ago to hash out initial ethical and safety rules on recombinant DNA

Didn't they agree on no scientific cloning? Whew, glad to see they kept their word.

Times is hard. Good gigs are hard to find. Especially if you are a “climate scientist”.

Four things need to be proven before taking any action on global warming:

1) Is global warming real?
2) Is it man-made?
3) Is it bad?
4) Can we do any thing about it?

Thinking people are still stuck on step 1 and these loons are already on to step 4.

geo-engineering = crackpot sh*t.


Does everyone know how fancy this place is?

And how much 5 days there must have cost?

And who paid????????????????????????


Why do they always need to meet on Bali or in Beverly Hills?

Why not camp out for 5 days down by the RR tracks with the homeless?

Before GW makes ‘em angry .........

What rot!

Suckin’ off the government, never had a real job in their lives, fake science, being a community organizer, teaching people how to get more freebies from the government by mau mauing the flakcatchers, suing Citibank for fake “discrimination” .....

Ooooops

Sorry

That was our President that I started talking about .............

but pretty much the same thing.

One would have thought that this work would have been done before we endeavor on major changes to our economic systems

I hate that stuff! I used to live in Atlanta and that stuff just couldn’t be beaten back without a lot of effort.

I say we set a reminder to revisit the issue after the current, tainted crop of “scientists” dies off.
