“I Got it Wrong on Climate Change—it’s Far, Far Worse”

This guy must be an economist, all right. He expects credit for past mistakes as reason for current credibility.
Meanwhile framing arguments positing a 'yes - no' answer to whether modeling predicting future conditions is reliable because Appeal to Authority is in play - presumably accurately relayed and applicable - which relies on consensus i.e. lack of acceptable contrary thought ( suitably certified as agreeing with the scenario in the first place) rather than verifiable proofs ( Hard to provide when certifying a culturally appropriate crystal ball. ) about a complex partially understood dynamic system with components for which modeling is not possible while taking some land based readings on a truncated timescale on a water world.

NEW YORKERS...CALL THE DOC TODAY!
If you have just a few minutes today to dedicate to a few quick phone calls, the movement will greatly appreciate it. Call the Commissioner of Health and DEMAND a real Health Impact Study be done for New York State! Dr. Nirav R. Shah 1-518-474-2011. Next, call Governor Cuomo and tell him the same thing (as well as some other clear tasks like BAN FRACKING NOW!) at 1-518-474-8390. The time to act is now!

Rosalind Peterson of California Skywatch was a certified U.S.D.A. Farm Service Agency Crop Loss Adjustor working in more than ten counties throughout California. She now spearheads a watchdog group that monitors uncontrolled experimental weather modification programs, atmospheric heating and testing programs, and ocean and atmospheric experimental geoengineering programs Peterson is at the forefront of the chemtrail research field and how the unexplained patterns that scar our skies are "causing detrimental human health effects and environmental degradation."

In this 1-hour plus video exclusive for Prison Planet.tv members, Peterson reveals how she was first spurred to investigate chemtrails after being alerted to them by someone at the Mendocino County Probation Department. Peterson then began to intensely study the phenomenon and note that aircraft producing the trails would circle the county in a clock-like loop, covering the entire area with a cloudy haze in as little as three hours. Peterson cites NASA studies showing that the chemtrails turn into man-made clouds, exacerbating artificial climate change. However, Peterson states her contention that NASA is attempting to cover-up the true nature of chemtrails and convince people that they are a natural phenomenon, a ruse dutifully parroted by top weather and satellite observatories, who as Peterson explains acknowledge the fact that man-made chemtrails are changing the weather yet still label them as natural weather fronts in their public broadcasts.
