Say what you want about people insisting we go green: They’re watermelons (green on the outside, red on the inside), they’re busy constructing the new secular religion…they’re do-gooders more interested in being right then in thinking the ideas through…
…but how can you distinguish the science and doubt from all the ideology and certainty?
Freeman Dyson in his review of two books in the NY Times Sunday (covering the politics, science and economics of GW), would seem to wonder at the same questions, and stresses:
“The main point is religious rather than scientific. There is a worldwide secular religion which we may call environmentalism”
Which doesn’t help public discussion of the science nor protect reasonable skepticism…
…of course there is much truth there as well. In Dyson’s work and in the data that leads some to say global warming is happening.
