From recent interview with Judith Curry, perhaps the leading voice in the world on climate science.
"Even if we believe the climate models, nothing that we do in terms of emissions reductions will have much of an impact on climate until the late 21st century."
"Climate science communication hasn’t been very effective in my opinion. This strategy hasn’t worked for a lot of reasons. The chief one that concerns me as a scientist is that strident advocacy and alarmism is causing the public to lose trust in scientists."
"While some of the smartest people on the planet are university professors, most of them simply don’t matter in today’s great debates."
"Drivers for the growing number of layers in the climate debate are the implications of the 21st century hiatus in warming, the growing economic realities of attempting to transition away from fossil fuels, and a growing understanding of the clash of values involved."
"Since 1998, there have been periods exceeding a decade when there has been no statistically significant warming."
".....although solar cooling is also contributing to an extent that is uncertain."
"This is in spite of the assessment of the IPCC that doesn’t find much evidence linking extreme weather events to global warming......"
The Kardashians And Climate Change Interview With Judith Curry Zero Hedge
Obviously, she does not concur with the radical alarmists in this forum on many things. Also highlights that she recognizes what the AGW climate crusaders in this forum don't: that the science is not mattering in 2014. Its not even debatable. Also, many references in this interview that indicate that there is much that is not understood.......and commentary of the almost impossible task of getting energy policy in line with the science.
Hmmm.......but if you read the material posted up by the climate obsessed alarmists in here, you realize they live on a different planet.
