Antarctic Ice Sheet growing

Verdier's book is full of errors, and his contract precludes him from using his position to promote personal viewpoints. Even the unions want him removed.

You seem to be quite obsessed with climate change. For someone who is supposed to be an IT contractor you spend a great deal of your time trying to stamp out any question about the integrity of the climate change lobby or its prognoses.
Are you a stooge of the climate change lobby?

More ad hominen stuff from the taliban

You mean errors like the end of snowfalls in the UK?

PJ has a provable tendency to comment authoritatively on books he hasn't actually read. So...

Has anyone actually presented any science that proves, or even suggest, significant man-made global warming yet?

All i've ever seen presented is models - and models aren't scientific evidence.

Fair enough, I haven't read the book, however I regard Le Monde's critique of its shortcomings to be trustworthy.

It's good to see that pj has the integrity(at last) to agree that


arctic ice is up
Antarctic ice is up
polar bears are up

Novelist Will Self and Richard LittleJohn were once in a radio studio together , both having books recently published. Self confessed that he had only read the first 200 pages of Littlejohn's 400 page 'recruiting pamphlet for the BNP' , and Littlejohn asserted that Self was unqualified to comment until he finished the work. Self responded:

Why? Does it suddenly turn into Tolstoy?

200 pages is indeed enough to determine that a novel has unconvincing characters and leaden dialogue in service of an absurd and distasteful premise. Life is short.

So, in which particular is the Le Monde critique inaccurate? I assume you have read the book, or at least the reviews?

Or are you just relying on The Australian's opinion piece? If so I recommend Tim Lambert's series The Australian's War on Science

The War on Science – Deltoid

I have not read it at all. Nor have I commented on it. I simply published it to show how dissent to your religion is treated.
