MIT Scientist Questions Theories on Global Warming

Washington, DC (TLS). A respected scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who receives no research funding from energy companies, has dared to openly question the current popular theories on global warming.

Richard S. Lindzen is the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at MIT, and he is taking on head-to-head the shrill voices of the politically correct by questioning their dogma on global warming.

Lindzen states that those who would lay the blame for global warming at the feet of human activity have very little credible ground to stand on when the entire history of the planet is objectively considered.

Further, Lindzen states that the computer models that make projections of what the climate will be like 50 years from now are the very same models that predict the weather from day to day, which are wrong 50% of the time at least.

Lindzen provides ample evidence that current computer model projections are highly flawed and that the earth has been in an overall pattern of warming ever since the end of the last Ice Age.

The Liberty Sphere feels that this is a refreshing addition to the debate on global warming, particularly in an era in which some scientists would mandate a sweeping change of lifestyle for humanity based on computer predictions that can't even get next week's forecast correct.
