The study lends a pseudo-scientific air of respectability to what amounts to a black list of the minority of scientists who do not accept the premise that global warming is mostly the result of you driving your SUV and using incandescent light bulbs. Not surprisingly, the study finds that the skeptical scientists have fewer publications or are less credentialed than the marching army of scientists who have been paid hundreds of millions of dollars over the last 20 years to find every potential connection between fossil fuel use and changes in nature.Īfter all, nature does not cause change by itself, you know. = The Global Warming Inquisition Has BegunĪ new “ study” has been published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) which has examined the credentials and publication records of climate scientists who are global warming skeptics versus those who accept the “tenets of anthropogenic climate change”. Spencer has some interesting comments in his post below. We don’t need the negativism that is being fostered elsewhere.ĭr. Maybe somebody can come up with a theme variation specific to climate skeptics. Their list making (like the skeptic list used for the PNAS paper) is what is the parallel here.Īs for yellow badges, here’s what I’d like to see all skeptics wear. They were famous for making lists of people and their associations, to use later for what could only be described as nefarious purposes. So Stasi-esque doesn’t qualify for Godwins Law. For people that don’t know, the Stasi were the secret police of East Germany, post WWII, and post Nazism. Over at Lucia’s she wrote a post saying I had banged the Godwin’s Law “gong” by comparing the PNAS skeptic list paper as “stasi-esque”. Spencer’s essay below reminds me of this famous cartoon:
