  • Team of Scientists’ Open Letter To U.S. Senators: ‘Claim of consensus is fake’

    The following letter signed by five physicists was sent to all 100 U.S. Senator’s on October 29, 2009. The letter is reproduced in full below:

    A GAGGLE IS NOT A CONSENSUS

    You have recently received a letter from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), purporting to convey a “consensus” of the scientific community that immediate and drastic action is needed to avert a climatic catastrophe.

    We do not seek to make the scientific arguments here (we did that in an earlier letter, sent a couple of months ago), but simply to note that the claim of consensus is fake, designed to stampede you into actions that will cripple our economy, and which you will regret for many years. There is no consensus, and even if there were, consensus is not the test of scientific validity. Theories that disagree with the facts are wrong, consensus or no.

    We know of no evidence that any of the “leaders” of the scientific community who signed the letter to you ever asked their memberships for their opinions, before claiming to represent them on this important matter.

    We also note that the American Physical Society (APS, and we are physicists) did not sign the letter, though the scientific issues at stake are fundamentally matters of applied physics. You can do physics without climatology, but you can’t do climatology without physics.

    The APS is at this moment reviewing its stance on so-called global warming, having received a petition from its membership to do so. That petition was signed by 160 distinguished members and fellows of the Society, including one Nobelist and 12 members of the National Academies. Indeed a score of the signers are Members and Fellows of the AAAS, none of whom were consulted before the AAAS letter to you.

    Professor Hal Lewis, University of California, Santa Barbara

    Professor Fred Singer, University of Virginia

    Professor Will Happer, Princeton University

    Professor Larry Gould, University of Hartford

    Dr. Roger Cohen, retired Manager, Strategic Planning, ExxonMobil

      What makes anyone think the government will listen
      They don’t about anything else.
      And if the media even mentions this it will be a throw-away line about “A SMALL GROUP” of “DENIERS” blah blah.
      I wonder what will come next after their Climate Change scare campaign collapses, Super flu, dirty bomb, Russia, China…….Just wait…… FEAR, coming up next on FAUX News

      daggaz Reply:

      Its about time they did the right thing, but they should have protested AGES ago. Regardless of whether the theory was factually correct or incorrect, the ethics and scientific integrity behind its politisation and subsequent promotion were entirely incorrect.

      Oh and Glen, its not a small group. Read the fine print, its got five signers who are speaking on behalf of entire groups.

      Glen Reply:

      Tthe comment was about media spin not that the group was actually small, have another read

      When you live in a Dictatorship, the wants and needs of the people are ignored and the wants and needs of their “Controllers/Handlers is all that is decided upon.

      People, We are no longer a FREE and Sovereign nation! It should be painfully clear to all that have the capacity for critical thinking that your so called “Elected Representatives” are nothing more than PUPPETS to the GLOBAL REGIME that now controls YOUR PERSONAL LIVES!

    4. truther Says:

      I have an urgent message for you, more important than any message you can hear. God is Holy and cannot accept sin(honor thy mother and father…, thou shall not kill, thou shall not commit adultery, thou shall not steal, thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor, thou shall not covet..etc…Exodus 20:12-17). Here are some verses that show examples of sin:

      “Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.” Matthew 5:21-22

      “Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” Matthew 5:27-28

      “It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement: But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.” Matthew 5:31-32

      “For ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23. Your good deeds cannot cover up your bad deeds.

      “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” Isaiah 64:6

      “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” Romans 3:10-12

      You could be perfect in all the law and stumble at one point and it is as if you broke all of them:

      “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” James 2:10

      “Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.” James 4:17

      God wrote the law on each man’s heart so they are without excuse on judgment day when we will ALL stand before Christ(”Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another” Romans 2:15). The penalty of sin is death and eternal punishment in the LAKE OF FIRE. I am warning you about hell because I love you! You are dead in your sins and headed for hell which is described in the Word as a FIRE THAT QUENCHES NOT(”…the fire is not quenched” Mark 9:44). It is a horrible and terrible place of everlasting torment that people will go because of their sins.

      “And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.” Luke 16:22-24

      “In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;” 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9

      But God has provided a way for each to escape the lake of fire. He sent his Son Jesus(God manifest in the flesh-1 Timothy 3:16) who was conceived by a virgin by the Holy Spirit of God,lived a sinless life, and suffered a horrible death/shed blood and rose again 3 days later to take the penalty of YOUR sins so you dont have to pay for them in hell for eternity! He loved you so much which is why he did it! He is the only one to have fufilled the law perfectly(sinless) and paid the price of the entire world’s sins so that man could be saved on the merits of His perfection(see Romans 5:19). All you must do to be saved is BELIEVE in Him(trust in Him to save you as a sinner). You must admit your lost sinful condition to Him/that you’re worthy of hell, and ask Him to save you by placing complete trust in Jesus ALONE for salvation(an example in the Word of someone doing this- “And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.” Luke 18:13).It is not even partly by yourselves that you can be saved, but only by the merits of Jesus Christ!

      “For God so loved the world, He sent his only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

      “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world” 1 John 2:2

      “…Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,” Revelation 1:5

      “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” 1 Corinthians 15:3-4

      “Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” Acts 16:29-31

      “But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.” Romans 4:5

      “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:9-10

      No works or anything you do can save you! May God open your eyes, that one day I may see you in heaven. Read the Word of God(the 1611 King James version- NOT the modern versions, they are corrupt) before rejecting it! Death is fleeting. You may NOT have tomorrow! For death comes when we least expect it! Make sure you are saved TODAY! The Bible condemns the rich, the wealthy, and those who take advantage of the poor, so it CANNOT have been made up by the elite. Because the Word clearly CONDEMNS people such as those! It declares all mankind as sinners(myself included).

      I am a Christian, and love you enough to warn you of the dangers of hell. Beware, the Roman catholic church is NOT Christian! The church CANNOT save you but only Christ! Just because someone says they are a Christian does not necessarily mean they are one(remember the crusades in history? Many were murdered in the name of Christianity. These were no Christians at all by their testimony). Please email me to inquire more. I would be glad to help you out in your search for truth!(my email- livingwaters705@hotmail.com)…To those who slander/mock me, I pray for you and love you anyways and hope you will trust Christ before its too late!

      I call upon my fellow Christians on here to return hate posts with love and blessings. The Lord commands us to love them:

      “Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” Matthew 5:43-45

      Salvation is not found in good works, rituals, church, the pope, water baptism, good lives, etc….But ONLY found by faith in Jesus Christ the Savior!

      If you need prayer or anything, just let me know! I would be glad to help! I love and care for you, and I have prayed that every person that reads this who do not know the Lord, would one day turn to Christ in faith for salvation for their sins. I beg you to turn to Christ in faith before it is too late! You get ONE chance while living and then it is too late forever:

      “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:” Hebrews 9:27

      “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32

      “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6

      “…there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.” Isaiah 45:21-22

      “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Revelation 22:17

      Earth and it’s inhabitants need more, not less, CO2.
      More CO2 means:

      * More Plant Growth
      * Plants need less water
      * More food per acre
      * More robust habitats and ecosystems

      CO2 is Earth’s greatest airborne fertilizer. Without it – No Life On Earth!

      Global warming or global governance?
      - -Interviews of climate scientists and biologists from numerous sources who explain, step by step, why Al Gore and the global warming alarmists are incorrect. In some cases, blatantly so. It also provides evidence that the global warming agenda is being funded with tens of billions of dollars as a mechanism to create global governance. Hear from congressmen, experts and even well-known news broadcasters how global governance puts global institutions that are not accountable to the American people in control of every aspect of our economy. The U.S. government is very close to making this a reality.- -

      Wow, that’s a whole lotta stink for one post.

      “Earth and it’s inhabitants need more, not less, CO2.”

      WRONG! Especially if those Earth inhabitants live in the sea. Ocean Acidification, a result of absorption of excess carbon-dioxide, KILLS marine life.

      Politicians cost lives Reply:

      WRONG!!!!!

      The claim that the oceans are becoming acidic is false.

      The entire ocean floor consists of minerals which act as a buffer to acidification keeping the pH of the water within a perfect range, which has enabled life to exist for billions of years without being effected by massive variations in atmospheric CO2 levels that have at certain times been as high as 7000 ppmv and on average well over 1200 ppmv.

      If what you are saying were true, all marine life would have died of millions of years ago!

      Don’t believe AGW is a fraud, Know it!

      It did, mostly. They’re called extinctions.

      Meanwhile, rather than idly speculating, why not educate yourself on the subject:

      Ocean acidification due to increasing
      atmospheric carbon dioxide

      Your government doesn’t care if they parade a million strong in a “Million Scientist March”. They have seized absolute power and they don’t have to do anything they don’t want to do. You can do nothing short of taking up arms to stop them, and that’s clearly not going to happen. You have lost your will, intellect, and organisational ability to do so. Sadly I must conclude that your only recourse is to get out while you still can. Vote with your feet. I did.

      Marie Dube of New Hampshire Posted at 12:38am June 10, 2008

      My 10-year old son was approached by a teacher/assistant librarian preaching at public school about the “poor polar bears” that are becoming extinct due to global warming. Aside from the fact that the stats appear to indicate that the polar bear population has actually increased substantially over the past 30 years, it is disconcerting that some teachers spread controversial information as fact without conducting their own research AND without encouraging critical thinking and analysis. When my son responded that he believes global warming is a hoax based upon research he and his parents have conducted, the teacher actually told him that he wouldn’t believe my son over scientists, and that when my son is wrong and the earth does heat up causing a shortage of food, my kid will be “the first one we eat.” Public education….oops….indoctrination in America. Just great. Funny side note…my kid did tell that teacher that although the teacher wouldn’t believe him, he wondered why the teacher did believe Al Gore – who isn’t a scientist at all. Hah”.
