50 Top Astronauts, Scientists Slam NASA For Promoting Man-Made Climate Change

Please. Your science "god" has made a lot more than one big mistake that he's had to retract, he's not very highly regarded by his peers anymore, and his reputation (in the scientific community) is declining almost as quickly as his health. But please continue to worship at his altar.
Quote from Brass:

Yes, Hawking, arguably the most intelligent person alive, has admitted to making a mistake. Have you?

Oh, and how many of the 50 astronauts et al are climate scientists?

Quote from achilles28:

That's irrelevant. The point is the science is NOT settled.

Professional doctorates who understand the experimental method better than you or I, have examined the evidence, and found it wanting. Others, have found it convincing. The point is the much lauded and bandied about "consensus" doesn't exist. The social consequences from migrating the entire earth to "green" energy sources are disastrous, especially for the third-world, who the Liberals profess to care so much about. Imagine the fallout of 200 a dollar barrel oil - especially for the third-world. It wouldn't be just a Western Great Depression, but a global one. The ramifications of these so-called "solutions" to climate change harbor incredibly grave and severe consequences for humanity. And I consider myself a humanitarian. This stuff is no joke. I recognize it's trendy and cool to want to "Save the planet", but we're playing with fire here.

Yes, that's true, but don't overlook the way the less developed countries are trying to play this to engineer a giant resource transfer from the developed world to them. For years, they tried to play the so-called North-South guilt card to little avail. The idea was that the developed world had unfairly exploited their resources and we owed them something. The idea seemed to be that we would should pay off the corrupt elites in these countries so they would shut up.

Now they have a new scam, AGW. This time it is far more dangerous because they have allies in major western governments. We have a whole generation of young people who have been systematically indoctrinated and who lack the critical reasoning skills necessary to distinguish fact from fiction.
 
Quote from Free Thinker:

is this like in religion where you can get a list of scientists who claim evolution is false? when you look at the list they are things like computer scientists and dont work in the actual field of climate change?

No, these are some of the most highly respected people ever to work for NASA, and they are objecting to NASA being used to promote a political agenda. Much of it comes from one source , Goddard,and one guy, this James Hansen, a fanatical AGW zealot whom Bush should have fired.

These astronauts did not take a position one way or the other on the ultimate issue. They only said NASA should not be promoting a political agenda based on controversial science. That seems pretty reasonable to me, but liberals have to politicize everything they touch and demonize anyone who doesn't go along.

And how is it that some people take pleasure in disparaging one of the greatest, if not the greatest, minds of our time? Who does that?
 
Here's an example. Remember when I told you his latest book was nothing more than speculation but you "thought" otherwise simply because your science "god" wrote it?

Quote from ChkitOut:

ok, i made that up :p but the guy does have some crazy theories!

Hawking did have to walk back his theory that black holes did not follow the "conservation of information" law. He was proven wrong by an upstart scientist.

Cosmologists make their living by coming up with outlandish theories of how things work in the universe then trying to prove those theories right. This is a bad method of analysis for the earth's climate science since changes that effect large numbers of people are promoted as a result of such theories.
 
Quote from ChkitOut:

actually most of hawkings theories are ridiculed in the scientific community.

Personally I think all the fuss over Hawkings has more to do with sympathy over his physical condition than his great scientific mind.
 
This Hawking gaffe was even more ridiculous. :p Start watching at 1:17
