Quote:Seriously? You don't think that a guy with a PhD in Physics (and physics is <i>pretty</i> important when it comes to climate change) has any degree of credibility beyond the likes of Dakota (or this entire board for that matter)? At the very least a PhD in physics means that he has a far better understanding of the data and the effects of greenhouse gases (physics is the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy).

 

That wasn't my point. I believe, undoubtedly, that he understands the information that he's talking about better than we do. My point was that he didn't personally obtain the information. Like all of us, he received the information from a different group that, as MalabarJag pointed out, has an interest in perpetuating certain truths.
