Freeman Dyson on Global Warming parts 1 and 2
I had written earlier about Physicist Freeman Dyson (his son lives in Bellingham and Freeman gave a
talk here last December 2006. In it, he said:
He also cautioned that people may be kidding themselves if they imagine it is possible to stabilize the Earth’s climate.
“The biosphere was constantly changing in the past and it will be constantly changing in the future,” Dyson said. “The idea that we can put a stop to change is a dangerous illusion.”
He also contended that with proper management, the United States alone could create enough “biomass” — mainly carbon dioxide-absorbing plants — to absorb all the troublesome gas generated worldwide.
Here are two YouTube videos of him talking about this very subject.

Good stuff! Should be required viewing for everyone who rants about the
documentary 'Inconvenient Truth' -- you want an inconvenient truth -- here are some ones you don't want to think about...
Hat tip to
