Aliens Cause Global Warming

December 26, 2018 December 26, 2018 / 2 Comments / Climate Physics

Micheal Crichton describes the fundamental political problem of climate change: it is a religion promoted by nutcases who dismiss facts, logic, and science that contradicts their environmental belief. I have taken the liberty to bold some of his sentences to make his message more clear. – Ed by Michael Crichton Caltech Michelin Lecture January 17, 2003 …

In science, consensus is irrelevant

November 22, 2018 December 1, 2018 / Leave a Comment / Climate Physics

by Mark J. Perry, AEI (excerpt) As part of my series of posts this week to recognize the green holy day called Earth Day, here’s what Michael Crichton had to say about “scientific consensus” back in 2003 when he gave a lecture at the California Institute of Technology titled “Aliens Cause Global Warming” (emphasis mine): …
