Cambio climático: el escepticismo se extiende por Europa

Cada vez son más los científicos “enemigos de la ciencia” (El País dixit) No creo que se trate de un ataque repentino de cordura. Ocurre simplemente que las evidencias que permiten dudar de la ortodoxia al-goriana y ecofascista son, cada día que pasa, más apabullantes. Así, por ejemplo, un grupo de científicos ha decidido crear el “Instituto Europeo del Clima y la Energía” en Jena, y lo hacen con unos pricipios bien definidos:

Un repaso por el continente europeo, los científicos y las instituciones de prestigio que defienden abiertamente el escepticismo lo encontrarán en este artículo del TCS Daily.

Si conseguimos actuar, pensar, sentir y querer ser quien soñamos ser habremos dado el primer paso de nuestra personal “guerra de autodeterminación”. Por esto es importante ser uno mismo quien cuide y atienda las propias necesidades. No limitarse a sentir los beneficios de la libertad, sino llenar los días de gestos que nos permitan experimentarla con otras personas.

  1. Gracias Marzo, gracias lobotomizado . Sigo esperando a que él diga algo, no voy a cortarle el comentario así como así. Por supuesto que los malos solo hacen maldades. Eso de salvar orangutanes es sólo para despistar al personal.
    (*) juas!

  2. Creo que el record de Manin son 19 páginas. Su lema es “la verdad, con grapas o sin ellas”.

  3. Bueno, ya que Manin parece no encontrar el enlace a los datos del informe de 2005, os dejo aquí el relativo a 2006.

  4. Luis, al parecer lo que pega Manin es un PDF enterito alojado en Greenpeace, de título Public Information and Policy Research: 2005 Worldwide Giving Report (hay una versión HTML en el caché de Google).

    Curiosamente, en esa (supongo) lista de donaciones de Exxon no están las que hace a proyectos ambientales; tal vez Greenpeace no quiera llamar la atención sobre el dinero que Exxon dedica a salvar tigres u orangutanes (aparte de que ofrecer petróleo en lugar del “ecológico” biodiesel ya es salvar orangutanes). Lo que sí que me extraña es que no avisen de que Exxon da dinero para combatir la malaria, con lo antiecológico que es salvar vidas humanas.

  5. Manin, si es un copypaste de algún documento, te ruego nos dejes el enlace. Yo sí leo tus enlaces. Este comentario no podemos dejarlo así. Si es importante para tí, ha de ser comprensible. Y así, tal cual, no lo es. Además te digo lo que a otros comentaristas: donde exista la posibilidad del enlace, enlace. El sitio en el servidor lo pago yo 🙂
    No es una bronca, mira a ver como lo hacemos con este comentario tuyo, anda.

  6. Bueno en ese caso, citaré a la propia EXXON:

  7. Está bien ver que hay mucha gente que no tiene ninguna gana de volver a la prehistoria, que es donde Gore y Cía nos quieren mandar (pero ellos prefieren quedarse en el SXXI, claro)

  8. A los que citan a Greenpeace como argumento de autoridad, más les valdría leer algo sobre el caso “Brent Spar” o el documental “Survival in the hight North” para tener una cierta idea de la catadura moral que tienen esos sacamantecas.

  9. Don Manin, esa página que usted ha puesto va a Greenpeace, que como se sabe es una de las asociaciones más objetivas en este asunto…

  10. Luis, ¿le mandaste mal nuestras direcciones postales a EXXON o que?. No me ha llegado el cheque.

    El gobierno está a punto de sobornarme a favor de tema, y esos si que manejan pasta.

  11. Por supuesto, Manin. Todo es una conspiración neocon y del capitalismo salvaje. Para cuando la presentación en sociedad de los “peones verdes”?
    No te enfades 🙂

  12. “los científicos y las instituciones de prestigio”

    Ay, que me da la risa…
