American Thinker Blog: Richard Strimple : Daylight change crisis: an update
I have some frightening new information from my daylight change research. The data indicates drastic changes to the environment that have already started.

Many species of birds and millions of individual birds have left the northern hemisphere. The impact of the loss of these birds is unimaginable.

Insect life has been severely affected and most can no longer be observed.

Large mammals have been observed lying in a state of near death torpor in their dens.

Crop production has fallen to dangerously low levels. My models predict famine in the near future.

These and other effects of the loss of day light demand our immediate attention if we are to prevent a climate catastrophe.

Obama nominates physicist as science advisor - physicsworld.com
Holdren’s nomination has met criticism from rightwing blogs, many of which refer to him as a “climate change alarmist.” Myron Ebell, director of energy and global warming policy at the conservative Competitive Enterprise Institute, said Holdren would be one of Obama's “worst choices yet.”

The scientific community, however, has largely embraced the nomination. “He's a well-known science policy expert in energy and environment,” said Bush science adviser Marburger. “I think he's well qualified to have this position.” Neal Lane, who served as science adviser for President Bill Clinton, was more effusive. “John Holdren has the stature and all the knowledge and skills to be an outstanding science adviser to President Obama,” he told physcisworld.com. “John is a physicist with particular expertise in the areas of energy, climate change, and arms control, but he understands the larger set of issues OSTP will have to deal with.”
