Scientists Respond to Culture Kitchen on Global Warming

Every now and then Culture Kitchen gets targeted by global warming deniers. Honestly, we are way past the time for denial on this issue, but deniers are still out there and this is one of the sites they target. And having to counter the same denial yammering over and over again gets a bit frustrating for me.

But sometimes we get responses from another corner: actual scientists. And I find those reponses far more gratifying. In my diary addressing the latest denial drivel is an excellent response from the American Physical Society (APS) that is worth highlighting in a diary (thanks to Tawanda Johnson for posting the APS statement in my diary:

Words to live by

"The divorce between church and state should be absolute. It ought to be so absolute that no Church property anywhere, in any state, or in the nation, should be exempt from equal taxation; for if you exempt the property of any church organization, to that extent you impose a tax upon the whole community."


— -- James A. Garfield, Congressional Record (1874), 2:5384, quoted from Gene Garman, "Church and State Separation"
