Let's make hay while it lasts.
We rushed into renewable energy without any thought. The schemes are largely hopelessly inefficient and unpleasant. I personally can't stand windmills at any price.
An inefficient virus kills its host. A clever virus stays with it.
I don't think we're yet evolved to the point where we're clever enough to handle a complex a situation as climate change. The inertia of humans is so huge that you can't really do anything meaningful.
I would only have been too pleased if someone had asked me for my data. If you really believed in your data, you wouldn't mind someone looking at it. You should be able to respond that if you don't believe me go out and do the measurements yourself.
The world has not warmed up very much since the millennium.
All the modelling we do shows that the climate is poised on the jump up to a new hot state. It is accelerating so fast that you could say that we are already in it.
This programme to stop nuclear by 2020 is just crazy. If there were a nuclear war, and humanity were wiped out, the Earth would breathe a sigh of relief.
If you start any large theory, such as quantum mechanics, plate tectonics, evolution, it takes about 40 years for mainstream science to come around. Gaia has been going for only 30 years or so.
I'm a scientist, not a theologian. I don't know if there is a God or not. Religion requires certainty. Revere and respect Gaia. Have trust in Gaia. But not faith.
If we gave up eating beef we would have roughly 20 to 30 times more land for food than we have now.
You mustn't take what I say as gospel because no one can second-guess the future.
We'd never have got a chance to go outside and look at the earth if it hadn't been for space exploration and NASA.
So-called 'sustainable development'... is meaningless drivel.
I'm a scientist, not a theologian. I don't know if there is a God or not. Religion requires certainty.
One pound of uranium is worth about 3 million pounds worth of coal or oil.
