The Crazies

by

Mark Steyn reports on the resignation of a Distinguished Climate Scientist, who can no longer tolerate the politicization of climate science.

Distinguished climate scientist Judith Curry [has] decided to resign from her position at Georgia Tech. [She elaborates on her reasons why.]

“The deeper reasons have to do with my growing disenchantment with universities, the academic field of climate science and scientists.

“A deciding factor was that I no longer know what to say to students and postdocs regarding how to navigate the CRAZINESS in the field of climate science. Research and other professional activities are professionally rewarded only if they are channeled in certain directions approved by a politicized academic establishment — funding, ease of getting your papers published, getting hired in prestigious positions, appointments to prestigious committees and boards, professional recognition, etc.

“How young scientists are to navigate all this is beyond me, and it often becomes a battle of scientific integrity versus career suicide (I have worked through these issues with a number of skeptical young scientists).”

Climate Change is not about science, it is about politics. Climate Change is merely a vehicle for the left to advance its agenda of redistribution of wealth within the context of a planned, political economy. Some of the Climate Change activists admit this outright, but it is readily apparent to those capable of thinking critically. Every “solution” advanced by the Climate Change activists involves advancing the socialist, progressive agenda. Coincidence?

The comments from Climate Scienticians attacking Curry sound just like mean middle school girls attacking someone who doesn’t belong to their clique.

Curry is as dishonest as they come. Shes an attention seeker, whoring her credentials for adulation from angry old white men.

  1. v the k I disagree with you that global warming is “a vehicle for the left to advance its agenda of redistribution of wealth…” socialism doesn’t spread wealth, it concentrates ALL wealth in the hands of the few. the is the left’s agenda, to put all wealth in their hands.

  3. I have been following Dr. Judith Curry’s work for several years and regard her as a scientist with integrity who believes in using empirical evidence regarding climate change rather than relying strictly on models. The fact that she also advocates for honest discussion of climate matters and the sharing of methods used to reach conclusions makes her more transparent and honest in my opinion than people like Michael Mann who are part of the bogus 97 percent “consensus.” I liked President-Elect Trump’s stance on the climate change issue and I truly hope that he can help to bring some sanity back into the climate discussion.

  4. Fidel Castro died with a billion dollars in the bank. Hugo Chavez died with four billion. Bernie Sanders owns three houses and Liz Warren took home half a million dollars a year for teaching one class.

    Yes, but, ya know, that’s because they really care for the poor and oppressed classes, as their redistribution schemes show. And as Alphonse Allais once said:

    “You’ve got to take money where it is to be found, that is to say: from the poor.

    Alright, they never have much money, but, hey, you can always make many more of them!”

  7. “Because when your models fail to predict anything, hey, you can always change them!”

    Models always seem to be changing. Not that that is a bad thing, but the explanation almost always is “our models were wrong” and almost never “our conclusions and/or hypothesis was wrong”.
