Richard Alley takes a page (unintentionally, I’m sure) from my playbook for debating creationists: You wanna tell us global warming isn’t real? Then go back to North Korea where you are obviously from, you Anti-American commie non-patriot!
Well, he doesn’t say it exactly that way, but you can hear it for yourself. The point is, if you deny the basic physics of climate change science, you might as well tell us that our system of national defense and apple pie are all made up too!
From Peter Sinclair’s series of elevator pitches:
“The point is, if you deny the basic physics of climate change science, you might as well tell us that our system of national defense and apple pie are all made up too!”
You are correct. Every aspect of our system of national defense was indeed made up, and there’s an agency for doing so, DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency).
Apple pies are made up by cooks (or machines instructed by cooks).
I see the phrase “basic physics of climate change” but with two or three papers every day coming from climate change scientists, I challenge the idea that there’s very much “basic” about it or that it is settled.
