Comment in question 26-07-2007 05:00 World's scientists vs Bush-ite spin There is an overwhelming international scientific consensus over the reality of global warming and the acute threat it poses to the world. Thus in realtion to Australia, our premier scientific research organization CSIRO has shown that the sea temperature in the Indian Ocean has increased by about 2 degrees centigrade in 40 YEARS with huge implications for further drought in this dry continent (data confirmed by satellite imaging from NASA). Readers of this column have to choose between the expert determinations and serious warnings by the IPCC, the Royal Society of the UK, the National Academy of Sciences, NASA and the AAAS of the United States and comparable scientific organizations around the world VERSUS the abusive denunciations of an anonymous supporter of the corrupt, dishonest and utterly irresponsible Bush Administration. Scientists are typically conservative, modestly paid and in general have NO major vested interests in fossil fuel- , transport-, military- or construction-related sales. However the major Bush-ite political and corporate climate change deniers DO have such huge vested financial interests. America and indeed other Western countries have laws against commercial information-related abuses such as \\\"insider trading\\\" for personal profit against the public interest. Americans with vested corporate and political interests who fly in the face of overwhelming scientific consensus over climate change at the expense of public welfare - \\\"all the truth that money can buy\\\" - have the same kind of moral culpability as \\\"insider traders\\\" and when MASSIVE DEATH ensues (as is likely to the extent of hundreds of milllions in the Third World according to the IPVCC and the UK\\\'s Chief Scientist) will be complicit in mass murder. Indeed that is why a Britsh group (Bring Climate Criminals to Justice) has been formed to promote legislation to bring the climate criminals and climate genocidists to justice. Those jeopardizing the health and safety of Americans and indeed of everyone in the world for personal gain and in the face of overwhelming expert evidence should face the same kind of legal retribution dealt to those involved in insider trading, other corrupt business practices as well as acute threat to public safety. Bush and his confreres can be legitimately described as climate terrorists. Guest |
