Hooray for Oak Ridge National Laboratory!
On a geological time scale, we are experiencing a brief period of warmth. Most of our ancestors endured a frozen, inhospitable world, where every minute of the day was devoted to survival and warmth. Things will cool down again soon enough, and then we are in for wailing and gnashing of teeth.
The planet is not dying. It is blooming, and full of life.
I love these feel good stories about kooks getting what they deserve.
Warmer is good, cooler is bad.
I’m just wondering why they haven’t taken their sideshow on the road to China, where the pollution is happening?
I’m sure this guy wasn’t fired for being ManBearPig at Oak Ridge, since the government actively backs the GoreBull warming scam. I would have to assume he angered his bosses and colleagues by his anti-social actions and attitude, and was fired on the flimsy excuse that he did personal stuff on government time.
I suspect there is more to the firing than climate activism. I bet the guy was a loon who didn’t get much done. twitter was full of SJW dead weight.
This loon is incensed that the 60,000 members aren’t all in agreement... Actually, the number who do agree with his most dire warnings are likely a small minority of those 60,000 members... Science is never ‘settled’ and soothsaying and predicting the future based on the limited amounts of available historical climate data is complete bunk.
Good. I hope you’re both starving and freezing
“I filled spreadsheets and ran simulations”... We can’t base our existence and the future on ‘simulations’... We need scientific facts... Not science fiction.
Scientist like you told Al Gore that the snow on Mount Kilimanjaro would be gone by 2016... It’s 2023 and it’s still there... That’s a scientific fact... Not a scientific ‘prediction’.
Her buddy Peter Kalmus is a well-known crackpot. Guess she is too. Not surprised she got in hot water for acting like a fool in public on government time.
Wow, what a scientist! He read a meter and entered the data into a spreadsheet.....that is so scientifically awesome!
I wonder if this guy protested the scientists who got fired for speaking out against the vaccine ( He probably cheered their firings)
Bias/Activism and science don't mix. It taints objectivity. It taints even the appearance of objectivity.
Without objectivity, science cannot be trusted because somewhere down the line, in some small experiment, even in just writing up the results of some experiments, some biased scientist--consciously or unconsciously--fudged the results or the protocols in favor of his bias.
When science is tainted by bias, the results cannot be trusted. And when nuclear science is tainted by bias, things go boom.
Sux to be you Rose.
I have a feeling that this guy was mentally unstable and everyone knew it so they were looking for a way to terminate him.
Is ORNL less woke than the other DOE facilities?
Very encouraging. When I first saw the headline, I thought that they were fired for QUESTIONING the CC narrative.
However, I would not be the least bit surprised to see the head of Oak Ridge resign in the coming days. Obviously, the NYT wants their head-on-a-stick.
I'll bet she was warned not encourage her colleagues to leave during their work hours and go out and protest during work hours. And she had been repeatedly warned.
Sounds like she did not heed the advice and probably designed the banner and organized the event.
My bet is that she will be hired again by an organization that supports climate change activism. The question is whether or not she learned anything from her firing and avoids being disruptive during work hours in the future?
Chances are like most folks like her, is that it may take a number of times, and possibly coming into management having to have someone under her that undermines her policies and or procedures before she will understand it, if ever.
Welp, first off, the title does not match the words in the article. So... I say Tough $hit to another crying lib...
...and another FO to an author who needs to deceive...
