But questions were asked in parliament and our environment minister made a strong statement that she did not tolerate any more mistakes. With many other scientists we have written a open letter to parliament stating the importance of IPCC and the rigour of its procedures. However, there should be an adequate mechanism to deal with errors on the IPCC website. Transparency on processes should be increased. I have enclosed our letter, for your information. it has been well received and was covered by many newspapers and the 8-o'clock news. I hope that it helps to balance the discussion and to bring thrust back into the IPCC process.
да нет, я все прекрасно понимаю, просто такое ощущение что абсолютно все равно сколько этих писем будет когда-либо написано, народ все равно слушает и верит fox news.
Я сначала тоже думал, что эта дурь пройдет, как только новая новостная история появится. Но вот купил книгу теоретика антинтеллектуального движения (Thomas Sawell, Intellectuals and Society) и понял, что тут есть мощная идеология. Надо делать волны, иначе от науки останутся только "полезные" области. А, может, и их не станет, если советам этого авторитета следовать до конца
