The ad hominem tone of Joseph Romm's diatribe against "conservatives" is only to be regretted.
Scientists are divided on the global warming theory. It could just as easily be the beginning of a new ice age. Nobody knows for sure.
Panicky moves are to be avoided. Onesided articles like Mr Romm's do not help, they just clog he issue.
So far THERE IS NO GLOBAL WARMING AT ALL going on. Since the yera 2000 the mean global temperature has FALLEN 0,77 degrees centigrade.
So it seems that Mr. Romm so far is completely wrong. His tone is inexcusable. It should set alarm clocks ringing in all critical minds.
I am a nuclear engineer in Finland and possible climate change is discussed here almost constantly. So far it is only a theory. Much more research is needed.
Joseph Romm's article on the risk of climate change is confusing the issue.
It is impossible to know which sentences are fact and which sentences are just Mr Romm's confused opinion.
The sarcastic tone does nothing to help.
The item about the ocean supposedly storing increasingly more heat stands on no legs at all and is a prime example of very bad reporting.
