Hatred of science

To The Horror Of Global Warming Alarmists, Global Cooling Is Here

That was the headline in a Forbes piece I saw today, which hardly surprises me.

Just last night I was reminiscing about my freshman Paleontology classes at UC Berkeley, in which we were taught that what is commonly known as “the Ice Age” was not a past event, but an ongoing one. What we call the “Recent” period is simply an Interglacial, but that the overall trend is back to the ice.

From the Wiki entry for the Climatic Optimum:

 

Not only is the overall long term trend toward lower temperatures, but if my professors were right, the planet is eventually headed back into another glacial period, and all the carbon/AGW that we can generate won’t prevent it.

The scientists of today must hate science.

    Niven and Pournelle were so prophetic when they wrote “Fallen Angels”.

    Yeah both sides get to political to listen to facts that contradict their pet causes. I was in NASA hq in the 90’s and heard stories of Gores attacks when NASAs hard data countradicted global warming year after year.
