I once was ridiculed for claiming that not all science is good science.
Of course science by itself is not bad, but there is always a person behind science.
While watching the news the other morning on CNN, there is an ex-washington post writer who is doing his own investagation about "scientists" who debunk the reasons for global warming, or that it was even happening at all. It seems they are funded by the oil companies. Too me, this is bad science.
I could not find a link to the direct article, but here are some others.
WashingtonPost.com Sends Readers To Blogs | Newsbusters (dam conservatives)
Oil firms fund climate change 'denial' | World news | The Guardian
Foes of global warming theory have energy ties
Sounds like biased science to me.
Meanwhile the earth is warming, and I believe it will be a snowball effect, and we will be in more trouble than we can deal with all to soon.
