SHOCK: The ‘Father of global warming’, James Hansen, dials back alarm

“The ponderous response of the climate system also means that we don’t need to instantaneously reduce GHG amounts.”

What a difference a few months make!
Just in time for holiday season, and for the Trump Administration, the father of the climate alarm, formerly a climate scientist with NASA/GISS, and now a full-time scientist/activist, has ameliorated his grand climate alarm. The 10-year ultimatum announced in 2006, made more dire in 2009 and since, is now moderated.
This October, we were told…
