You said it well, Henk. Global warming – at least the kind being
promoted these days – and the false hysteria about DDT (as
documented in the articles Jimi cited) are all just junk science.
Note: global warming as such is real. It is the extent of it, the
time framing of it, and above all, the 'causal humbug' being
promulgated by politics and politically motivated scientists that is
junk science. Greenhouse gases do not cause (much) global warming,
climate models tell you what you put into them, not what the real
climate will do, and the warming trend we see now is almost certainly
a completely natural phenomenon, one cycle in a short period (on the
order of ca 300- 500 years) cyclical climate oscillation. Remember
that little ice age they tried to teach you about in school, the cool
period during the 17th/18th century during which so many ice skating
paintings were produced in Holland and the UK? that basically was the
low of this cycle.
