The UK Government's former chief scientific adviser has accused green activists of putting the fight against climate change at risk by wanting to take society back to the 17th century.
He said: "There is a suspicion, and I have that suspicion myself, that a large number of people who label themselves 'green' are actually keen to take us back to the 18th or even the 17th century.
Sir David's comments were made in an interview in The Guardian.
I hope you are really doing by His Grace. I'm Prince,20yrs and I'm from Ghana. You know i saw your profile @ world friends.com so i took the delight to write you. I will like to be your friend if you wouldn't mind. You know as Christian I will love to share and discuss more Christian ideas with you. It's really a great pleasure to write to someone special like you. You know it’s always nice to have you near and to enjoy your company and your loyalty; it’s important to have the friendship and affection of someone with whom we can share our joys and sorrows, and discuss our problems without fear or reservations. To be a friend is to be able to enjoy the best things the other person has to offer, to recognize their faults but to know they are bearable and, on the other hand, to be a friend is to offer our virtues with all the generosity in the world and to live without masks or farces to hide our faults, habits or differences. Maybe I can’t really express that real meaning of friendship, but i know it’s good to know that there’s someone supporting us, even if sometimes they don’t fully agree with what we are thinking or doing and they don’t hesitate to show their point of view. That’s what true friends are like, because they know that a different opinion will not change a deep feeling of mutual and sincere trust. May Christ shine in everything you do, with a prayer that you'll always be safe, not only today, but always. Stay Blessed and i hope to hear from you soon.
Yours faithfully
PRINCE
I can't believe the ignorance - "who is David King?" He is the guy credited with educating Tony Blair about climate change and the threat it poses - and if you doubt the threat it poses you've got your head in the sand. Even if it's got nothinmg to do with human CO2 emmissions, something dramatic is happening which is causing what seems to be unprecedented rates of change in climate and the natural world.
"Greed drives us forward."
No Gavin; haven't you understood yet?
It is *hope* that drives us forward.
Ender, the communists didn't need to arrange for CO2 increases. They just needed to create hysteria over bad science. See this article from today.
"If you need any more proof that the concept of Global Warming is less 'science' and is more just a replacement for the kind of failed concepts of communism and socialism that is increasingly being rejected by the world, two recent stories helps clarify the point. These same stories also highlight how the media facilitate the lies that is globaloney. ....http://newsbusters.org/blogs/warner-todd-huston/2008/01/15/global-warmings-communist-underpinnings "
He doesn't know much about climate change, other than how to repeat climate alarmism. Hopefully, he knows more about nucler energy.
