Scientists decry “assaults” on climate research

Scientists decry “assaults” on climate research thumbnail

More than 250 U.S. scientists on Thursday defended climate change research against “political assaults” and warned that any delay in tackling global warming heightens the risk of a planet-wide catastrophe.

The scientists, all members of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, targeted critics who have urged postponing any action against climate change because of alleged problems with research shown in a series of hacked e-mails that are collectively known as “climate-gate.”

    All these assaults are **completely in a disgusting bad faith…
    This postponing of any action is **criminal today…

    Unfortunately this climate debate is not a debate but a mask of **an ideological fight** and so this debate is inevitably seen falsely by means of a distorting lens…

    Anyway it is true that, if temperature increases in Ocean, **then** Gulf Stream decreses and this is only an appearent contradiction…
    So what we are seeing and experiencing now does not at all go against the Global Warming…

    For the Global Warming is **not at all** to put an egg and boil it into water, it is not a regular heating on all places and in every part of the Earth regularly…

    Absolutely **not** for the the climate zones are influenced deeply by the Axis of the Earth and this we cannot change… When Global Warming acts it cannot change this division of the Earth in zones therefore it cannot but increase **instability**, so the wheather will become always increasingly i-n-s-t-a-b-l-e, that is crucial to be understood…

    Then there may be factors like a volcano that can change temporarily the course though incapable of changing the direction of the process itself…

    Then we may have the **apparent paradoxal** results: Global Warming **diminishes the force** of the Gulf Stream and so in certain parts of the world temperature decreses…
    But the general process cannot be changed by these minor factors…

    What are the credentials of these scientists? how many of them are actually working in the field of climate science? Who’s payroll are they on, and how much funding are they losing whilst we argue the premise of AGW?

    Also there is the question of the ‘recent attacks on climate scientists’….. errr excuse me but by their very mis-behaviour in fixing and adulterating climate data and hockey stick graphs, they have left themselves open to attacks – read criticisms! Cherry picking of data is not the scientific method!
