As the United Nations gears up for its next international conference on climate change in Paris next month (COP 21 [1]), a scathing white paper released by a society of French mathematicians calls its fight against global warming “absurd†and “a costly and pointless crusadeâ€.
“You would probably have to go quite a long way back in human…history to find [such a] mad obsession,†according to a translated summary of the document [2]released in September by the Paris-based Société de Calcul Mathématique SA [3].
The mathematicians harshly criticized a “crusade [that] has invaded every area of activity and everyone’s thinking," noting that "the battle [against] CO2 has become a national priority.
"How have we reached this point in a country that claims to be rational?†they ask, adding that mathematicians “do not believe in crusades. They look at facts, figures, comments and arguments.â€
“There is not a single fact, figure…[or] observation that leads us to conclude the world’s climate is in any way ‘disturbed,†the paper states. “It is variable, as it has always been. … Modern methods are far from being able to accurately measure the planet’s overall temperature even today, so measurements made 50 or 100 years ago are even less reliable.â€

Just look at money being spent already on global warming research.
If the science is “settled” what is there to research? Those funds could be cut from the budget immediately right?
Want to know why you don’t see any federal spending on researching the acceleration due to gravity on earth?
Because THAT IS settled science - a result that’s been demonstrated in the lab repeatedly.
shunnnnn the disbelievers! shhuuuuuuunnnnnnn!!
Mathematicians are trained to think logically. Of course they see through this BS.
Furthermore, the work done by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) does not meet the basic standards set by reputable scientific journals because its “conclusions go [contrary] to observed facts;
... the figures used are deliberately chosen to support its conclusions (with no regard for the most basic scientific honesty);
...and the variability of natural phenomena is passed over without comment.â€
Global Warming's a liberal elite scam based on lies...
A 3 percenter! We all know that 97 percent of scientists agree... So deniers are 3 percenters which just happens to be more than the percentage of the population who are homos and who have all the influence in the world.
Look like socitie de calculators is gonna be getting a call from the gendarmes for climate blasphemy. :>}
Uh, so glow bull warming causes gaiety? LOL!

No no. They called it a crusade. We are not allowed to use the word crusade because it will offend the sensibilities of Muslims. They need to pick another word.
it should be called a climate jihadi
Gendarmes for climate blasphemy types were not kind to Copernicus either...
Since they usually deal with abstractions and not observations of the real world or an understanding of its interactions, mathematicians don't seem like the most qualified people to determine whether global warming is real or imagined. That there are some physicist skeptics seems more interesting, to me anyway.
If deniers make up only 3 percent of the population of scientists, and there’s 30,000 signatures of scientists on the deniers’ petition, where is the offsetting petition of alarmist scientists that should have greater than one million signatures?
—Duh
