A topic from Science, Nature and Social Science: Climate Change

#1635Fri 23/01/09 20:54

 

This week's New Scientist has an interview with James Lovelock, inventor of the Gaia theory.

NS. Your work on atmospheric chlorofluorocarbons led eventually the global CFC bam that saved us from ozone-layer depletion. Do we have time to do a similar thing with carbon emissions to save ourselves from climate change?

JL. Not a hope in hell. Most of the 'green' stuff is verging on a gigantic scam. Carbon trading with its huge government subsidies is just what finance and industry wanted. Its not going to do a damn thing about climate change, but it'll make a lot of money for a lot of people and postpone the moment of reckoning…

I'm not going to type the whole interview, but that gives a good idea of it.

Is it too late to save ourselves from global warming and climate change?

i dont think there was ever anything we could do about it, it happens anyway, it has before and will again, and any cuts we make are just going to be a drop in the ocean
