Bush's climate-change Lysenkoism


Bush's climate-change Lysenkoism 06/09/2004 01:52 PM
Sterling's latest Wired column is a good comparison of the government-mandated pseudoscience in the Bush climate policy and the "totalitarian hucksterism" of Trofim Lysenko, Salin's number-one bad-science guy.
Presidential science adviser John Marburger complained that the UCS's account sounded like a "conspiracy theory report." That's because it is one. As the report amply documents, the Bush administration has systematically manipulated scientific inquiry into climate change, forest management, lead and mercury contamination, and a host of other issues. Even as Marburger addressed his critics, the administration purged two advocates of stem-cell research from the President's Council on Bioethics.

When politicians dictate science, government becomes entangled in its own deceptions, and eventually the social order decays in a compost of lies. Society, having abandoned the scientific method, loses its empirical referent, and truth becomes relative. This is a serious affliction known as Lysenkoism.

Antarctic Response to Climate Change -
Not Pragmatic


Antarctic Response to Climate Change -
Not Pragmatic
09/23/2004 05:56 PM
Early in 2002, this website published an excellent article which documented the activity among the various ice shelves on the perimeter of the Antarctic. At that time, there had recently been several significant calving events, rendering vast, floating islands of ice. Also discussed was the complete collapse, in 1999, of an ice shelf known as Larsen B, which was formerly the largest ice shelf on the Antarctic peninsula - the northernmost and warmest part of the continent. The disintegration of the Larsen B shelf was called a "profound event", because it was thought to be stable. Fortunately, when massive icebergs are calved from ice-shelves, and even when they collapse and disintegrate completely, there is no resulting rise in sea level. It turns out though, that these same ice shelves serve a surprisingly important role in "holding back" the glaciers and land-locked ice on Antarctica which, if released into the ocean, would raise the world's sea level an estimated 20 feet (7m). Now it's much clearer just how important that role is.

Climate change is still a contentious issue in some parts of the world. Despite widespread acceptance in the scientific community and by the general public in most of the industrialized world, it remains a divisive topic in the United States, rejected by conservative politicians armed with studies from industry-funded think-tanks and a healthy dose of congnitive dissonance.

This week's Science.Ars looks at the results of a distributed computing project focused on climate change modeling. In addition, we've got news of the sex life of the Hawaiian Cricket, stem cell contamination, and more.

Shell Oil Boss: "Climate Change
Worries Me"


Shell Oil Boss: "Climate Change
Worries Me"
06/19/2004 04:09 AM
A UK newspaper The Guardian has a report about a recent interview with Lord Oxburgh, the new chief executive of Shell Oil. In the interview he describes himself as being: "Really very worried for the planet" He believes that carbon sequestration, the trapping or burial of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, presents our best hope of dealing with the risk of climate change in the short term. Oil industry figures have criticised his admission harshly, since many of them still claim not to believe in human-induced climate change. Meanwhile environmentalists have applauded his admission but are skeptical about carbon sequestration, which they view as a costly cop-out.

The Underground History of American Education
You aren’t compelled to loan your car to anyone who wants it, but you are compelled to surrender your school-age child to strangers who process children for a livelihood.... If I demanded you give up your television to an anonymous, itinerant repairman who needed work you’d think I was crazy; if I came with a policeman who forced you to pay that repairman even after he broke your set, you would be outraged. Why are you so docile when you give up your child to a government agent called a schoolteacher?
