Inflação de cientistas

Nestes tempos conturbados de Copenhaga, há uma inflação ecológica muito significativa. A pegada da estupidez é cada vez maior, a atestar pelos inúmeros vídeos que circulam pela Web. Neste domínio, Marc Morano, do site climatedepot.com, é daqueles que melhor desintoxica o ambiente.

Na Sky News, no Sábado, Marc debateu o professor Mark Maslin, da Universidade College de Londres. Ao minuto 3:15, Maslin refere que "If you look at the [UN] IPCC report, 5000 leading climate scientists put together all the leading science together", mas Morano não se deixa intimidar com tanta asneira. Depois responde metodicamente, com "Your idea that [there are] 5000 UN scientists – you need to apologize and retract that immediately. The biggest number you can come up with if you include [UN bureaucrats] and delegates is 2800."

E depois dá o cheque mate: "Matt, check out the claim of 5000 UN scientists -- that is a bald face -- error. The professor needs to retract it. There is no 5000. And interestingly a few days ago you said 4000. Why not just say 100,000? You gave it away sir when you said 'key scientists'. It is a small cadre, only 52 UN scientists signed. Peer-reviewed studies are showing the scare is ending."
