"The [climate] debate must go on, even as the atmosphere for dialogue gets increasingly polluted. The sacralization of climate is being used as a great loophole in the rule of law, an apology for bad science (and even worse economics), and an excuse to do anything and everyth...

"The controversy over man-made global warming is far from settled. Despite claims that 'the science is all in' and 'there is no room for debate', the scientific method, with repeatable and falsifiable hypotheses, cannot really work when applied to the environment. Instead, sc...

"Anthropogenic climate change is a theory in which the basic mechanism is well understood, but the potential magnitude is highly uncertain. We know that the climate changes naturally on decadal to century time scales, but we do not have explanations for as number of observed...
