Here's a dark secret about the earth's changing climate that many scientists believe, but few seem eager to discuss: It's too late to stop global warming.

Punishment For Global Warming Deniers: Death - Prison - Fines - Shunning?


Most of the bastards are Americans, but what should we do with them in a few years when we all finally get it? I'd support going after on the web who have pushed the shit. It's criminal :mad:

But the cold fact is no matter what Europe and the United States and other "developed" nations do, it's not going to curb global climate change, according to one scientist who was once highly skeptical of the entire issue of global warming.

"Call me a converted skeptic," physicist Richard A. Muller says in an op-ed piece published in the New York Times last July.

Muller's latest book, "Energy for Future Presidents," attempts to poke holes in nearly everything we've been told about energy and climate change, except the fact that "humans are almost entirely the cause" of global warming.

Those of us who live in the "developed" world initiated it. Those who live in the "developing" world will sustain it as they strive for a standard of living equal to ours.

"As far as global warming is concerned, the developed world is becoming irrelevant," Muller insists in his book. We could set an example by curbing our emissions, and thus claim in the future that "it wasn't our fault," but about the only thing that could stop it would be a complete economic collapse in China and the rest of the world's developing countries.

Just think if we had Punished all those fools who said the Scientists were full of shit when they claimed back in the 70's that we were heading for another Ice age.

Man, People that think like you really scare the hell out of me. You are the Classic Authoritarian Lefty. Every Bit as dangerous, and despicable as your counter parts on the right.

Today it is not a few scientists, it is the scientific community. You're actually conflating a scientific fad with right wing myth.


Climate myths: They predicted global cooling in the 1970s - environment - 16 May 2007 - New Scientist

At least, a handful of scientific papers discussed the possibility of a new ice age at some point in the future, leading to some pretty sensational media coverage (see Histories: The ice age that never was).

Update: A survey of the scientific literature has found that between 1965 and 1979, 44 scientific papers predicted warming, 20 were neutral and just 7 predicted cooling. So while predictions of cooling got more media attention, the majority of scientists were predicting warming even then.
 
:rofl:

What were climate scientists predicting in the 1970s?



I can't believe how many myths are pushed here at USMB

Robert Brulle at the Wonk Room looks at a range of New York Times articles on climate science in the late 60's and early 70's.

The 1979 report from the National Academy of Sciences, "Carbon Dioxide and Climate: A Scientific Assessment" finds "when it is assumed that the CO2 content of the atmosphere is doubled and statistical thermal equilibrium is achieved, the more realistic of the modeling efforts predict a global surface warming of between 2°C and 3.5°C, with greater increases at high latitudes."
