TGIF ….&some News


just another rant …

Apparently, Climate change and its impact on science not to mention the latest comments from scientists all over the world has … churned up
some opinions … I like it. I want to thank everyone who even bothers to make comments at all …honestly, I had hoped to get maybe one, or two but the number of comments is great, please keep it up. So, with all that said the comment below is …

Comment:

Indeed Al Gore is not a scientist.  I recommend against using him as a source of climate science, except perhaps as an intermediary to actual scientists.

Perhaps a better idea is to lend credibility to the National Academy of Sciences.  Or the Royal Society (Great Britain’s national science academy, the oldest and probably most respected in the world).  Or the national science academies of over 30 nations, including France, Germany, Russia, China, and a host of others.  Or the American Physical Society, the American Chemical Society, the American Geophysical Union.  They have all issued unequivocal statements that global warming is really happening, that it’s caused by human activity, and that it’s very dangerous.

One is also well advised to put more trust in actual working climate scientists.  They too are in near-universal agreement that global warming is really happening, that it’s caused by human activity, and that it’s very dangerous.

One is ill advised to trust “Roger from New Zealand” on this issue.

My Response –

I am not using Gore as anything. Again, like i have stated to “Rodger from New Zealand, I receive newsletters and action alerts
from Gore and UCS which happen to at least provide information that hopefully makes people think and share…. they are not the only source but they are in the
game and more need to jump in or try to gain more PRsomehow. I appreciate your words of advice and I do believe my responses were adequate and spoke for themselves really.  i believe that Global Warming and Global Cooling are not only realities but also environmental and manmade  problems that definitely need to be addressed sooner than later.
