Oh, dear christ, more of that very tired mantra.
Seventeen (17) years of no warming. Zero. Nil. None. Zip. Nada. Zilch. Bupkis.
Dr. Lindzen: ...we agree that man should have some effect. And I think we agree that climate changes. And these are the areas that people point to when they say there is consensus. But none of this tells us there is a problem.
Yeo (M.P.): Do you go further and say we shouldn’t do anything about it?
Dr. Lindzen: I’m saying that not only we don’t know what to do about it but that almost everything proposed would have very certain consequences for people – and very uncertain consequences for the environment . . . It is clear that there is no policy that is better than doing nothing.”
