Global warming hysteria

Freeman Dyson, theoretical physicist and mathematician, famous for his work in quantum field theory, solid-state physics, and nuclear engineering and has spent most of his life at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton has never been know as a friend of Conservatives. He is a lifelong opponent of nationalism and a proponent of nuclear disarmament and international cooperation. However he began publicly stating his doubts about climate change about four years ago. He is among signatories of a letter to the UN criticizing the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The letter includes the statements "The average rate of warming of 0.1 to 0.2 degrees Celsius per decade recorded by satellites during the late 20th century falls within known natural rates of warming and cooling over the last 10,000 years" and "there has been no net global warming since 1998".

Among those he considers true believers, Dyson has been particularly dismissive of Al Gore, whom Dyson calls climate change's "chief propagandist," and James Hansen, the head of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York and an adviser to Gore's film, "An Inconvenient Truth." Dyson accuses them of relying too heavily on computer-generated climate models that foresee imminent world devastation as icecaps melt, oceans rise and storms and plagues sweep the earth, and he blames the pair's "lousy science" for "distracting public attention" from "more serious and more immediate dangers to the planet."

Now Hansen is attacking Dyson knowing that his gravy train is starting to wooble a little. Of course I pointed out earlier already that Hansen's supervisor at NASA has already largely discredited Hansen and his computer modeling. All the Al Gore driven hysteria is built on erroneous computer modeling. As they say in the computer industry "garbage in, garbage out".
