When Freeman Dyson speaks, listen.
Seriously.
You have additional info on him, then I’m interested.
Yep. And if he says your climate model is wrong because it doesn't match current data, believe him. And he's not going to have his career ruined by pissants such as Hansen or Gore, either.
The creator of the dyson sphere concept and the creator of project Orion that would take us to Mars in weeks should be listened to.
That's my take on it, too. It seems that a lot of physicists "get it".
I think this is the money quote:
It is true that there's a large community of people who make their money by scaring the public, so money is certainly involved to some extent, but I don't think that's the full explanation, he said.
Dyson is not coming right out to say it, but I think he is pointing out there's (grant) money for research that "validates" climate change.
Yes, there are other people (like the media) that make money from doom-and-gloom. And there are certainly "clean energy" boondoggles that would have otherwise never been even considered.
