World-Renown Physicist (and Democrat): Obama's Wrong on Climate Change
Conservative News Service ^ | October 14, 2015 | Mairead McArdle

Posted on 10/15/2015 12:42:51 PM PDT by ManHunter

Freeman Dyson, one of the world’s top theoretical physicists and a self-described “100% Democrat,” criticized President Barack Obama for his views on climate change, stating that he was on the “wrong side” of the issue and that Republicans were on the “right side” of the topic.

“I'm 100 per cent Democrat myself, and I like Obama. But he took the wrong side on this issue, and the Republicans took the right side,” Dyson told The Register last week.

Sounds like Dyson knows his physics.....but little else.
We thank him, however, for his backup on the FACT that climate “scientists” are those who failed REAL physics and math analysis classes in college.

Nobody lives off the largesse of the taxpayer, or other people, like a physicist.

Dyson is no idiot. Actually he is quite brilliant, even if he is a Democrat.. this is a very strong public rebuke of AGW.

Big polluters: one massive container ship equals 50 million cars
PAUL EVANS
APRIL 23, 2009
http://www.gizmag.com/shipping-pollution/11526/

There are 90,000 cargo ships in the world.
There are 760 million cars in the world.
15 of the largest ships emit as much Sulphur Oxides as the 760 million cars of the world.
The largest ships have two cycle engines 5 stories tall and use 16 tons of dirty fuel per hour as they travel just 30 mph across the globe.
These ship engines produce 114,800 horse power or 90 MW.
A city of 100,000 homes uses 100 MW
Ships contribute half of the pollution in Los Angeles
There are 150 nuclear ships in the world. A Nimitz class supercarrier produces 240,000 hp, 208 MW, or enough power for 208,000 homes and can go 20 years without refueling.
A wind farm the size of Texas, California and New Mexico is required to power the U.S.
In 1967 Los Angeles we had 855,000 employees in manufacturing.
In 2014 we had 349,532 manufacturing employees.

There is not and never can be any such thing as “settled science”.

The scientific method itself precludes that assumption.

The steps of the scientific method are to:
*Ask a Question
*Do Background Research
*Construct a Hypothesis
*Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
*Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion
*Communicate Your Results

On “climate change”, the part about testing the hypothesis is somehow skewed, in which there are some kinds of demonstration put on, but the results vary each time, and no consistent analysis may be made of the data collected. These important series of steps are merely glossed over, and the step is made from hypothesis to the conclusion, which is then not permitted to be challenged.

After all, this computation was all worked out with the aid of a computer model, and no human mind is sharp enough to include the wide range of variable involved.

There is an old saying involving the use of computers -Garbage in, garbage out, or GIGO.

Someone figured out that any solution to “global climate change” will cost him a leg & an egg.

“Which is correct english. World renown or world renowned?”

######################

They both are, but in different situations.

World “renown” is a noun. “He is a physicist of world renown.”

World “renowned” is an adjective which describes a noun. “He is a world renowned physicist.”
