Dysan battles the GW kooks
The conceptualizer of Project Orion, man's only hope to reach
interstellar space also knows something about global warming. But it won't endear him to the hysterical nuts who think the World is about to end. http://www.bellinghamherald.com/102/story/43354.html Dec. 7, 2006 Science can fix climate woes, author contends Freeman Dyson tells students a wet Sahara once supported livestock herds After branding himself a heretic, mathematician and physicist Freeman Dyson told a Fairhaven College audience that fears of global warming are overblown. Dyson acknowledged that human activity is adding carbon dioxide to the Earth?s atmosphere, and that could raise its temperature. But he said he finds scientists? climate models unconvincing. He also expressed confidence that the negative effects of global warming, if any, could be overcome, while some areas of the Earth would likely benefit from the change. Six thousand years ago, Dyson said, glaciers in the Alps were much smaller than they are today, and the Sahara was wet enough to support herds of livestock. |
