Dr. Ivar Giaever won the Nobel Prize in physics in 1973, then in
2008 he joined with over 70 other Nobel laureates in endorsing Obama for
President, a decision he may now regret. Speaking at a Global Warming forum
last week, Giaever denounced global warming
fanaticism and mocked President Obama for claiming that climate change is the gravest threat we face
today, saying the very idea was “ridiculous” before adding, “I say this to
Obama: Excuse me, Mr. President, but you’re wrong. Dead wrong.”
“I would say that
basically global warming is a non-problem.”
Dr.
Giaver resigned from the American Physical Society in 2011 after they released
the following statement.
“The evidence is incontrovertible: Global warming
is occurring. If no mitigating actions are taken, significant disruptions
in the Earth’s physical and ecological systems, social systems, security and
human health are likely to occur. We must reduce emissions of greenhouse gases
beginning now.”
I resigned from the society in 2011. First: nothing
in science is incontrovertible. Second: the “measured” average temperature
increase in 100 years or so, is 0.8 Kelvin. Third: since the Physical Society
claim it has become warmer, why is everything better than before? Forth: the
maximum average temperature ever measured was in 1998, 17 years ago. When will
we stop wasting money on alternative energy?
On the religion of
Global Warming:
“Global warming really has become a new religion. Because you cannot discuss it. It’s not proper. It is like the Catholic Church.”
“Global warming really has become a new religion. Because you cannot discuss it. It’s not proper. It is like the Catholic Church.”
Giaever argued that there’s been no global warming
for the last 17 years or so (based on satellite records), weather hasn’t gotten
more extreme and that global temperature has only slightly risen — and that’s
based on data being “fiddled” with by scientists, he said.
“When you have a theory and
the theory does not agree with the experiment then you have to cut out the
theory. You were wrong with the theory,” Giaever said.
On his concern that the UN will continue pushing climate change ideology:
On his concern that the UN will continue pushing climate change ideology:
“I am worried very much about the [UN]
conference in Paris in November. I really worry about that. Because the [2009
UN] conference was in Copenhagen and that almost became a disaster but nothing
got decided. But now I think that the people who are alarmist are in a very
strong position.
The facts are that in the last 100 years we
have measured the temperatures it has gone up .8 degrees and everything in the
world has gotten better. So how can they say it’s going to get worse when we
have the evidence? We live longer, better health, and better everything. But if
it goes up another .8 degrees we are going to die I guess.
I would say that the
global warming is basically a non-problem. Just leave it alone and it will take
care of itself. It is almost very hard for me to understand why almost
every government in Europe — except for Polish government — is worried
about global warming. It must be politics.
So far we have left the world in better shape than
when we arrived, and this will continue with one exception — we have to stop
wasting huge, I mean huge amounts of money on global warming. We have to do
that or that may take us backwards. People think that is sustainable but it is
not sustainable.”
Dr.
Giaver is a perfect example of what happens when a scientist approaches a
scientific issue without an agenda. We need more Dr. Giaver’s and fewer Al
Gore’s.
