Bradford Plumer
Looking at this *kid*. His pic reminds of that old saying someone famous once said:
Youth is wasted on the young.
Or to put it another way...
Go Away Son, You Bother Me.

[Is this what the climate-change debate has come to?]
It was the Left—Al Gore being the most visible and bombastic—who turned climate science into a vehicle to advance socialism.
Nope, it’s the fries, man! The FRIES!!!!
:-P
Because he could find no smokestacks, the author chose to issustrate his piece with cooling towers. Cooling towers don’t pollute and don’t emit carbon. Cooling towers are the sybbol of nuclear power and therefore bad so something bad is ok even if it is a lie
The author lied

The Climategate reviews were (at least in one case) done by rigged panels with a vested interest in the outcome, IIRC.
I love to be preached to by an unqualified nitwit with a predisposition of self importance.
Smart writer there. I needed a good laugh this morning.
You know what’s really funny and ironic about the picture in the article?
They obviously are trying to say that that “smoke” coming out of those towers is “pollution” that is causing climate change.
It’s doubly ironic that the “smoke” is really just water vapor from cooling towers, but that [naturally produced] water vapor makes up somewhere on the order of 98% of the “greenhouse gases” in the atmosphere.
“science, falsely so called”
1 Tim 6:20, KJV
“Here’s how you can matter - you can care about the erf”
it’s quite a siren song for spiritual beings with a built in need to worship and have a relationship with their Creator
The funny thing is, nuclear power would “solve” the problem that they’re concerned about.
There are no “carbon emissions” from a nuclear power plant.
It would solve the problem they SAY they are concerned about, yes.
It actually exacerbates their real concern, which is why they're against it.
Yes, I need to watch the precision of my language.
Their real issue is about controlling people,
and they can’t do that if we have access to cheap energy.
And as long as we have access to information and the ability to call them out on their hypocrisy.
I live in Virginia and I wouldn't mind a little less winter and a little more summer.
Good post, analogous “climate catastrophe” has happened in the middle ages, the 1800’s, the 1930’s and even the 1970’s. Floods will happen so we need dams, not just for hypothetically more rainfall. Storms have always happened and “superstorms” are not really possible due to limits in fluid dynamics.
There are serious scholars who spend there lifetimes engaged in the study of topics about which they are never half as certain about anything as members of the MSM are about everything.
Although they might be convinced that Mr. Plumer has no idea what he is talking about.
As soon as the theory becomes unpopular in Provincetown. Then he will embrace whatever is trendy next. As Karl Popper pointed out, the ultimate test of the validity of a scientific theory is whatever the editorial board of the New York Times says it is.
Nope, and that's why it's a fraud.
One cornerstone of the scientific method is that for a theory to be scientifically valid, it has to be falsifiable. For instance, a theory that says that the moon is made of the kind of green cheese that turns into solid rock, if anyone comes in contact with it, is not valid, because it does not allow for its being proven false. Neither would a theory that says whatever weather conditions, even contradictory ones, are due to man made global warming.
