Nobel prize winner for physics in 1973 Dr. Ivar Giaever resigned as a Fellow from the American Physical Society (APS) on September 13, 2011 in disgust over the group's promotion of man-made global warming fears.
  Dr. Giaever wrote to Kirby of APS: "Thank you for your letter inquiring about my membership. I did not renew it because I cannot live with the (APS) statement below (on global warming): APS: 'The evidence is incontrovertible: Global warming is occurring. If no mitigating actions are taken, significant disruptions in the Earth's physical and ecological systems, social systems, security and human health are likely to occur. We must reduce emissions of greenhouse gases beginning now.'

Dr. Giaever was quoted declaring himself a man-made global warming dissenter. "I am a skeptic...Global warming has become a new religion," Giaever declared. "I am Norwegian, should I really worry about a little bit of warming? I am unfortunately becoming an old man. We have heard many similar warnings about the acid rain 30 years ago and the ozone hole 10 years ago or deforestation but the humanity is still around," Giaever explained. "Global warming has become a new religion. We frequently hear about the number of scientists who support it. But the number is not important: only whether they are correct is important. We don't really know what the actual effect on the global temperature is. There are better ways to spend the money," he concluded.
Giaever also told the New York Times in 2010 that global warming "can't be discussed -- just like religion...there is NO unusual rise in the ocean level, so what where and what is the big problem?"

Is there a reason you are screaming this?  Like we can't read it in a normal font?
Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.

Hawk, I don't know if you're yelling about it, but you sure are blind to it.  All you can talk about comes from Rush Limpaw and the Tea/Republican talking points.  :jester:

It is news....and it is a fact....I don't listen to rush, at least I rarely get too.....I got this from the AP news.

and I'm not yelling just posting some info, that YOU would never hear about from YOUR MSNBC or Huffington Post.....because THEY do not WANT you to know the truth.

Why waste your time arguing with such nonsense?  It has already been well established on this forum that a couple of members only pay attention to information that supports their already skewed viewpoints so why put forth the effort?  If they want to believe that a physicist knows more about climate than a climatologist, let them.  Seriously, the same guy who completely ignores observable evidence like shrinking polar ice shelves as evidence of global warming but believes in an invisible man living in the sky is trying to convince anyone that he alone understands, "the truth"?  LMAO...right...

I find it ironic that anyone would trust the media on ANYTHING, without first researching things and looking for enough credible evidence that supports a given position. Anything less is nothing more than opinion; and of the same value as toilet paper.

My position on global warming has not changed. It is real, as the scientific evidence continues to show, and I have yet to see anything scientific that doesn't support the theory.

That which fails to kill me. . .should run!

  For your information Hawk, I watch MSNBC, CNN, PBS, LINK, BBC AND Alizra tells you thing that no television network tells you.

  The reason I can do this is, because of my Social Security, my Medicare and my wonderful UAW pension which I work for 38 years for. 

  Good wishes for America and the American people.  The Tea/Republican Party can go to hell.      :4th2: and any other day.

There is no global warming, then, right?

Forget global warming - it's Cycle 25 we need to worry about (and if NASA scientists are right the Thames will be freezing over again)

       
  • Met Office releases new figures which show no warming in 15 years

Pal Brekke, senior adviser at the Norwegian Space Centre, said some scientists found the importance of water cycles difficult to accept, because doing so means admitting that the oceans – not CO2 – caused much of the global warming between 1970 and 1997.

The same goes for the impact of the sun – which was highly active for much of the 20th Century.

'Nature is about to carry out a very interesting experiment,' he said. 'Ten or 15 years from now, we will be able to determine much better whether the warming of the late 20th Century really was caused by man-made CO2, or by natural variability.'

Meanwhile, since the end of last year, world temperatures have fallen by more than half a degree, as the cold 'La Nina' effect has re-emerged in the South Pacific.

'We're now well into the second decade of the pause,' said Benny Peiser, director of the Global Warming Policy Foundation. 'If we don't see convincing evidence of global warming by 2015, it will start to become clear whether the models are bunk. And, if they are, the implications for some scientists could be very serious.'

I am quite certain it would be bad....THAT is not my arguement Olias.

The fact that MAN is causing it is my arguement.....MAN is NOT CAUSING this Global Warming.

and the facts are starting to roll in......It is the largest SCAM in our lifetime.
