I don’t think so. But let me add a few more words.
In recent days, we witnessed two major salvos in the climate wars as well as many minor repercussions. Both of them are claimed to be equivalents of the battle of Stalingrand in the climate wars. A frustrating aspect of the hype surrounding both salvos is that they came from the opposite camps but they are very analogous, anyway.
I will start with Richard Muller – which seems as the worse example among the two – and continue with Anthony Watts.
“I are a intellectual,
Twelve years of climate studies, see.
I learnt about our climate change from Gore and IPCC.
I learnt the sun don’t warm the earth, ain’t causin’ us to fry.
It’s just a big flourescent bulb a liten up the sky.
It’s only man made CO2 that’s causin’ us to roast.
(Of all the people I despise, I hate them skeptics most!)
So stop a usin’ energy!
Your lifestyles re-design,
Of course I’m only talkin’ yours,
Don’t even think O changin’ mine!”
I love good poetry, too bad this isn’t it.
To me, the article didn’t evoke Stalingrad, but did remind me of The Battle of The Little Bighorn, where false assumptions led to a less than optimal outcome.
and while you talk, the drought spreads., the tundra thaws, and the water….
Harold, you forgot to mention the seal levels raising 300 feet in the next ten years or that the last polar bear on earth just drowned! “hate them dammned skeptics!”
