Black-cab drivers encouraged to become green ambassadors | Environment | guardian.co.uk

London cabbies are being given fancy silk purses, feedback "guest books" and a bleeper to stop them revving their engines too much in a move to turn them into green ambassadors to fight climate change.

Terrace Standard - Schindler's Gist 2

According to Schindler, the first thing we must do is stop debating whether man-made global warming is the cause. Science is a rigourous pursuit characterized by innovation and competition. Theologians claim there is a god and tell they have concluded this is so because they have faith that it is and, therefore, no further proof is required.

Given the rigour of scientific inquiry, complete agreement is almost impossible and agreement by the majority of scientists, is extremely rare. Schindler – an environmental scientist for half a century, who knows most of the big names in atmospheric sciences, paleoclimatology, geochemistry, and oceanography – says that nearly complete consensus has been reached by scientists on climate warming and the human role in it. To underscore his point, he cites the literature review done by Science Historian, Naomi Oreskes , for the Institute of Scientific Investigation.

This review and his examination of the scientific journals since it was done, led Schindler to conclude that their inability to withstand the scrutiny of their peers, is the reason that climate change deniers confine their output to weblogs. [What about these 900+ papers?]

“If any of [these skeptics] had a scientifically convincing argument that greenhouse gases are not causing climate warming, you can be sure it would have been published swiftly, followed closely by its being awarded a Nobel Prize,” writes Schindler.

Schindler then went on to succinctly demolish [how, specifically?] the main arguments put forward by the handful of climate change denying scientists (some of whom were familiar because they had argued that there was no credible proof that tobacco smoke was injurious to human health on behalf of the tobacco giants decades ago).
