New Tech Makes Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Verifiable

We can benchmark climate models to a good standard...the actual climate.

You do realize that we don't need models to demonstrate global warming, right? That's an actual measurement.

Come back when you have a bare minimum of technical prowess, and have studied something besides humanities, political science, or some other such soft study for right brained types like yourself.

Hey Einstein: 10,000 years ago New York City was under the polar ice cap.

Not only that temperatures have been rising steadily since about 1600 or so - the end of the Little Ice Age. Just a few more decades and we might be as warm as the Medieval Warm period about 1,000 years ago.

But I bet you keep telling yourself how fucking smart you are.

Go ahead, tell yourself you're smarter then Freeman Dyson:

The Civil Heretic [nytimes.com]

IT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO that Dyson began publicly stating his doubts about climate change. Speaking at the Frederick S. Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future at Boston University, Dyson announced that ?all the fuss about global warming is grossly exaggerated.? Since then he has only heated up his misgivings, declaring in a 2007 interview with Salon.com that ?the fact that the climate is getting warmer doesn?t scare me at all? and writing in an essay for The New York Review of Books, the left-leaning publication that is to gravitas what the Beagle was to Darwin, that climate change has become an ?obsession? ? the primary article of faith for ?a worldwide secular religion? known as environmentalism. Among those he considers true believers, Dyson has been particularly dismissive of Al Gore, whom Dyson calls climate change?s ?chief propagandist,? and James Hansen, the head of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York and an adviser to Gore?s film, ?An Inconvenient Truth.? Dyson accuses them of relying too heavily on computer-generated climate models that foresee a Grand Guignol of imminent world devastation as icecaps melt, oceans rise and storms and plagues sweep the earth, and he blames the pair?s ?lousy science? for ?distracting public attention? from ?more serious and more immediate dangers to the planet.?

But yeah, you go ahead and claim to be smarter than Freeman Dyson.

You fucking fool.
