Via CNET, it’s clear that the anti-science wing of the GOP is going to try to make hay out of an allegedly suppressed report by career EPA staffer Alan Carlin, cited by Smokey Joe Barton last week on the House floor during Waxman-Markey debate.
But, let’s take a look at Carlin’s own, Googlepages website to get the lowdown on his political angle.
And we have it. Go to Carlin's website, look at his list of publications. This guy's flogging cost-benefit analysis (PDF) as THE answer on global warming, and other stuff, for years. His global warming answer is atmospheric engineering with aerosols, a HUGELY dangerous proposition.
Meanwhile, if the science doesn’t support the actuality of global warming, then why was Carlin proposing such a solution for an allegedly nonexistent problem?
EPA's only "problem" is that Carlin wasn't smoked out and headed off at the pass six months ago.
Update: Welcome to all you Europeans coming here via “Wikio.” I hope you’re staying around long enough to learn the truth about Mr. Carlin.
Anyway, for visitors, I’m curious about your views, so take the poll if you would. (Multiple answers are allowed, as I have a bit of snark in it.)
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
