| Category: Warmening Sp!ked is a really good site, Jack. This recent article entitled "Global warming: the chilling effect on free speech" is an absolute cracker of a read. An open letter to the [Royal] Society – signed by Tim Ball, a professor of climatology at the University of Winnipeg, and others – argues that ‘scientific inquiry is unique because it requires falsifiability’: ‘The beauty of science is that no issue is ever “settled”, that no question is beyond being more fully understood, that no conclusion is immune to further experimentation. And yet for the first time in history, the Royal Society is shamelessly using the media to say emphatically: “case closed” on all issues related to climate change.’ |
