Let the market rule. The market says solar and wind =
shite.
That's why they can't survive without subsidies and regulations on competitors.

You guys are hysterical.
Lindzen also has a view that lung cancer has only been weakly linked to smoking.
The Arctic's glaciers are melting and the Antartica's Ice Shelves are melting.
Let's do nothing.

Fair enough. Politics is the number one problem with advancement of green/renewable technologies. Every energy source has hypocritical aurguments for or against each. You can't build a coal plant because of a pair of nesting yellow headed red breast owls, but you can kill them by the hundreds with a wind mill. A farmer can't plant low areas of his field do to wet lands, but counties can fill in thousands of acres for solar farms.
I am all for this technology. Promote it because it gives people healthy air to breath not that the temp will go up .3 degrees in the next 250 years.
Support it with grants, private funds, and agencies. Unfortunately the days of doing things because they are hard are gone.

Lindzen clearly relishes the role of naysayer. He'll even expound on how weakly lung cancer is linked to cigarette smoking. He speaks in full, impeccably logical paragraphs, and he punctuates his measured cadences with thoughtful drags on a cigarette.

Can I have a link to this data?
Start there. Royer 2006 is a good primer

It has nothing whatsoever and never has had anything to do with doing things that are hard. It's whether or not it's profitable for the establishment.
That's why man-made global warming.....errrr...global warming.....errrrr.....climate change is continually being pushed. The establishment and their minions stand to make incredible fortunes...if only you sheople would just buy into it. I mean really, why do you folks pollute this country? Why do you hate America so much?

It's worth pointing out that Lindzen's colleagues at MIT have publicly disagreed with his views on global warming: LINK
quote:
But to his MIT colleagues, the evidence has become overwhelming. Raffaele Ferrari, an oceanographer and the chairman of the MIT climate program, rebutted Lindzen’s main points in the letter to Trump, writing that “the ongoing increase in carbon dioxide concentrations poses a risk to humankind.”
“There is no compelling scientific argument to suggest that these risks are so remote that they can be ignored,” he wrote.
Susan Solomon, a professor of environmental studies in the climate program, said her chief concern is that non-scientists who know little about the issue may assume Lindzen’s views are legitimate because of his status as an MIT professor.
“The truth is there’s a tiny fraction of climate scientists who would agree that his views are correct,” she said. “The risks are much greater than he says.”
