Scientist Wants to Alter the Chemical Makeup of Earth’s Upper Atmosphere

August 8, 2006 · By

You can’t make this stuff up.

A Nobel Prize-winning scientist has drawn up an emergency plan to save the world from global warming, by altering the chemical makeup of Earth’s upper atmosphere. Professor Paul Crutzen, who won a Nobel Prize in 1995 for his work on the hole in the ozone layer, believes that political attempts to limit man-made greenhouse gases are so pitiful that a radical contingency plan is needed.

It would cost between $25bn and $50bn – or about $25 or $50 per head in the developed world – to launch sufficient sulphate to last for up to two years.

Yikes, apparently no price is too high to quell the impending destruction of the earth! Check out the next paragraph in the article:

But this high cost should be measured against the much bigger costs of environmental disasters, such as coastal flooding, caused by global warming, he said.

Environmental disasters caused by coastal flooding? Assuming there is even going to be a disaster of epic proportions, does spend $25bn and $50bn on altering the atmosphere sound like a reasonable proposition? This junk science is borderline nutty, yet the main-stream media outlets let scientists like this off way too easily.

Read “Fallacy Nine: Global Warming will Produce a Rise in Sea Levels” (pg 316) by Dr. deFreitas for more information on how the rising sea levels data has been manipulated and mis-stated.

    “Read “Fallacy Nine: Global Warming will Produce a Rise in Sea Levels” (pg 316) by Dr. deFreitas.”

    Heh. As published in the Canadian Bulletin of Petroleum Geology five years ago. Yes, that’s certainly where I’d look for unbiased scientific analysis on climate issues.

Got something to say? (Read the rules first)
