Global Warming and the Planetary Boundary
Global Warming and the Planetary Boundary
As for global warming, a non-consensus school of scientific thought, consisting of a small minority of scientists, believes the ecosystem is at risk of collapse within current lifetime. These scientists do not pull punches. Rather, they tell it like it is, as they see it.
Whereas, most leading climate scientists are not willing to honestly expose their greatest fears, as discovered by Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! while at COP21 in Paris this past December, interviewing one of the world’s leading climate scientists, Kevin Anderson of Tyndall Center for Climate Change Research, who said: “So far we simply have not been prepared to accept the revolutionary implications of our own findings, and even when we do we are reluctant to voice such thoughts openly… many are ultimately choosing to censor their own research.”
Straightaway, we know from one of the world’s leading authorities that climate scientists are censoring their own research. They are low-balling. Consider this; imagine trying to get a “research grant or private funding” for work that exposes the dastardly truth. That’s the quickest way forward to an unemployment line of sour-faced scientists.
“The Arctic is in crisis,” claims Ted Scambos, lead scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Arctic Sea Ice Sets Wintertime Record Low Thanks to Global Warming, USA Today, March 26, 2016.
If the Arctic is “in crisis,” then, by definition, the planet is in crisis. Maybe the ole clarion bell in the public square should be ringing like crazy.
