| Quote | | William Dembski: The American Physical Society, an organization representing nearly 50,000 physicists, has reversed its stance on climate change and is now proclaiming that many of its members disbelieve in human-induced global warming. |
Well, that should be easy to confirm.
| Quote | American Physical Society:
APS Position Remains Unchanged
The American Physical Society reaffirms the following position on climate change, adopted by its governing body, the APS Council, on November 18, 2007:
"Emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities are changing the atmosphere in ways that affect the Earth's climate." |
Hmm.
Let's check out Dembski's original source, Michael Asher on Daily Tech. Well, that's what he says alright. But what's that in the comments?
| Quote | CynthiaCyndi: On the front page of the APS website there is a statement as follows:
APS Climate Change Statement
APS Position Remains Unchanged |
Did Michael Asher retract his statement. Um, no. But he does try to justify it.
| Quote | | MIchael Asher: It's original stance was that no significant dissent existed, and that no publication or APS officer would refer to the debate as anything but settled. Previously, APS publications rejected any paper which criticized the IPCC conclusions; now they are actively calling for such papers. That's a radical change in stance. |
Darn those scientists, always asking for scientific papers.
Let me say, some "so-called" scientists have said this vein of Tard was exhausted. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright Brothers...
