Princeton University's Will Happer on CO2

Sometimes a sane and studied essay comes out on a serious subject of our times. Such a piece has appeared. The subject is CO₂.

The author is Will Happer, a humble, scholarly, and extraordinarily intelligent physicist at Princeton University. Be not afraid; his written words are plain, free of both political fluff and science jargon, and perfectly understandable. If you can read, you-- and every other American in this country--ought to study his simply written yet comprehensive essay on CO₂.

For myself, I've followed the science in attempts to discover facts, rather than political fiction, about CO₂. There's the CO₂ data that comes from the chemistry books. But government agencies like NASA and the EPA cook the books and call CO₂ a pollutant. This called for getting a CO₂ meter of my own and measuring for myself. More intelligent folks than myself proposed CO₂ as the benign--even beneficial--substance it is. Less intelligent folks put it to work making money for governments. The intelligence of the world was put on hold, held captive by a hoax that consumed a cooling globe instead of one heating up. Warren Myer's intelligent piece on CO₂ summed it up, but alarmists in our midst continued to disagree.

Will Happer's essay simply and sharply cuts through the crap. Please pardon my 'French,' but do read his English. He tells the science as it is, not how we'd like it to be. He says what's good and what's bad, the standards for those being people and the planet. He fudges no data, nor obfuscates the story with statistics. He describes what is, what went on, both the truth and the lies the various interest groups laid upon us, an unknowing public.

If you read nothing else, read Will Happer's erudite piece on the real story of carbon dioxide, the non-polluting gas we breathe for life. Get your students and kids to read it as a primary source rather than the propaganda they get in the schools. Pass it on to your friends for their enlightenment. Brighten your cocktail conversation with facts rather than political rhetoric. Read it here. And read it well.

Then tell me with a straight face you still believe the likes of goofy Al Gore, the corrupt IPCC, mad Michael Moore, heretic Hansen, James, of NASA, and the scurrilous science of Richard Somerville (Scripps).
