Anti-science conservatives must be stopped

Americans must not allow global warming deniers to block the policies needed to avert catastrophic climate change. Our future is at stake.

    Aggressive articles without merit must be stopped

    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.
