Obama Climate Advisor Looks To Engineer Climate

From Drudge Report.

The president's new science adviser said Wednesday that global warming is so dire, the Obama administration is discussing radical technologies to cool Earth's air.

John Holdren told the Associated Press in his first interview since being confirmed last month that the idea of geoengineering the climate is being discussed. One such extreme option includes shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays. Holdren said such an experimental measure would only be used as a last resort.

Before the government screws up the planet permanently, perhaps it should look at the data that show the climate cooling over the past decade and continuing to cool over the next decade. This is completely absurd.
