Mainstream science's varying attitudes to melting - or not melting -the arctic ice caps certainly seems inconsistent.
But only at first blush.
In 1946 , the head of the UNITED NATIONS agency UNESCO advocated the dropping of enough A-Bombs in the Arctic region to melt all the ice caps.
Julian Huxley, who remains one of the most lauded figures in mainstream science, was merely adding his name to a growing chorus suggesting this large scale example of deliberate climate changing and deliberate terraforming (earthshaping).
His proposal certainly doesn't seem to have hurt his career then or his enduring scientific reputation now.
No DENIER denies that Huxley seriously proposed that Man could deliberately melt the ice caps and change the globe's climate dramatically.
By contrast, let me guarantee one certain thing in your grandchildren's highly uncertain lives: they will not see statutes erected to the men who built and operated the power plants that accidentally melted the arctic ice caps.
But in this case,DENIERS do deny that it is possible for Man to accidentally melt ice caps and change climates.
Deniers, deniers, deniers : where is your consistency ???
Just as I endlessly harp on 'that it is not about climate change' or 'its not about frackin earthquakes', let me repeat once again : 'its not about ice caps melting'.
Always, always, always, with old-school scientists it is about control : who is in control : Man or Mother Nature ?
'Out-of-Control' is a codeword for 'out of the control of Man, and in the control of Mother Nature' .
Many men find that terrifying at some deep sub conscious level.
Control freaks. Misogynist control freaks. Misogynist control freak scientists.
Have old-school scientists ever stopped beating up on their wives and mothers, symbolically, through their scientific efforts ?
I wonder .....
