Will Happer Testifies to U.S. Senate about Climate Change
On February 25th, 2009, Will Happer spoke before the Committee on Environment and Public Works in the U.S. Senate about climate change and carbon dioxide.
There are several places on the web where you can find his testimony—here are two:
I guess there are two ways of looking at it. The first way would be to dismiss Prof. Happer (who has written a very nice optical pumping primer that everyone that goes through Physics 111 Advanced Lab should read) saying, “But he’s an atomic physicist, what does he know about climate?”
Another way would be to recognize that perhaps only someone who’s not a “climatologist” (or whatever they call themselves these days) can speak the truth against the global warming orthodoxy. After all, is there a single lie or exaggeration in his statement (compare that to Gore’s famous work of fiction)?
After all, Gore’s only a politician. What does he know about science?
