Q&A: Why do global warming deniers continue to slander James Hansen?
Question by Dana1981: Why do global warming deniers continue to slander James Hansen?
Mr Jello and Liberal continually slander James Hansen, claiming that he’s taken bribes from Kerry and Soros to…well, then don’t specify for what purpose. They’re content just to slander James Hansen and leave it at that.
Are global warming deniers so lacking in quality arguments to support their positions that they have to resort to slandering brilliant scientists?
I could spend all day pointing out the flaws in the few skeptic scientists. For example, the fact that Tim Ball lies about his credentials and is really just a geographer, or that Richard Lindzen doesn’t believe that smoking causes lung cancer, but I’d rather discuss scientific evidence. I’d rather pick apart what Tim Ball tries to argue rather than point out that he’s not an expert on the subject, as he claims.
Would global warming deniers rather slander people like Hansen and Gore than discuss scientific evidence, as appears to be the case? Why do they never discuss Hansen’s scientific arguments?
What a shock, Mr Jello continues to slander him.
Bob does an excellent job providing Liberal and Mr Jello with a reality check in his answer here:

Answer by Mr Jello
What I find interesting is how many fine minds are torched and trashed, ruined and wrecked because “they took oil money”, but yet someone who took money from a “politicization of science” group can remain objective in your mind.
Here’s a group that states in their name that their goal is to politicize science and that’s fine? I guess objective science is dead, that “science” only depends on who or how many believe a statement to make that fact.
How sad. It’s a shame to see the product of today’s school systems.

How can we make curing cancer a global priority?
Question by Hacker: How can we make curing cancer a global priority?
Cancer kills 7 million people worldwide each year. Yet it is a treatable disease that—in time—is beatable. However, in today’s troubled global environment, valuable resources that would otherwise go to cancer research are frequently re-directed by the crisis du jour.
What can we, as individuals and as a global community, do to focus & mobilize our governments to find the cures that will make cancer a fear of the past?
Best answer:
Answer by Somebody else
I think that we need to look at our priorities. Yes, cancer kills many millions of people a year, but more people are killed in much more easily preventable ways. For example, in some countries children die all the time from diarrhea, which is easily preventable and easily treatable with the right medical help. Tuberculosis is still a big killer in poor countries, even though it can be treated as well. In some countries women die in childbirth 10% of the time. In some countries 30% or more of the population has HIV or AIDS. This is just unacceptable. Cancer is awful, but unfortunately it is just not the biggest problem in the world and it shouldn’t be our biggest priority.

Should cancer research be a global priority or are there more important global issues to pay attention to?
Question by MikeG: Should cancer research be a global priority or are there more important global issues to pay attention to?
Cindy Crawford believes that cancer research should be a global priority, and the majority of people that answered Crawford’s question support her (but mostly based for Crawford, only the US economic and political issues, and their own personal, and even biased, experiences). But in my belief, cancer research should not even come close to being a global priority.
So my question is what issue(s) do you think should be a GLOBAL PRIORITY? (Read the capitalized words carefully, and not based on US conditions, and be as neutral as possible). If you still believe cancer research should be a global priority, explain why.

No, people need to realize that God has the ultimate power over our lives so he’ll always look over us. We shouldn’t be depending on scientists to solve all/any of our problems because God will take care of us.

Clean cookstoves can save lives – the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves
Three billion people all over the world still use polluting, inefficient stoves to cook their food each day. The stoves emit toxic fumes which cause chronic illnesses such as pneumonia, lung cancer and bronchitis. Around 2 million people, mostly women and children, die every year as a result. Since half of the world’s population still depends on wood and charcoal to cook, 80% of the earth’s natural forests have been destroyed. Not only does this affect climate change, but many women and children are forced to spend many hours every day, collecting fuel. Cleaner stoves have now been developed that use less fuel and emit less smoke. By making these energy-saving stoves more widely available, the social and health benefits are huge, reducing deforestation, allowing more family time, developing local businesses and livelihoods while saving and improving lives. The Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves is a public-private initiative to save lives, improve livelihoods, empower women, and combat climate change by creating a thriving global market for clean and efficient household cooking solutions.

Why is it that so many skeptical global warming scientists also don’t think that smoking causes lung cancer?
Question by Dana1981: Why is it that so many skeptical global warming scientists also don’t think that smoking causes lung cancer?
Three that come to mind are Seitz, Lindzen, and Singer.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Lindzen#Views_on_health_risks_of_passive_smoking
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Singer#Publication_on_health_effects_of_tobacco
Seitz and Singer also don’t think that increased UV radiation due to the hole in the ozone layer can be linked to increased skin cancer.
Why do you think these ‘skeptics’ share these beliefs?

Global Jurix is leading name in indian law firms has expertise attorney works in its multiple law offices in india, know all about this best law firm india from above article.
www.larrybodine.com — If your website displays the three things that business clients look for, you’ll get a lot more calls from clients that you want. Business development trainer Larry Bodine knows this for certain, because he’s heard general counsel speak on panel discussions where they spelled out what they expect to find on law firm websites. The first thing they want to see is industry experience — that you have knowledge of what’s going on in their industry. The second thing they look for is representative clients — do you represent small businesses or the Fortune 500? They want to see that you represent companies like them. Smart law firms will set out the kind of clients they desire to work for. The third, and most important, thing to put on a law firm website are case histories. The Jones Day website is a good example, becauase it is built around their case histories. Clients want to know whether you have ever settled a case or closed a transaction. Do not put up the case caption of litigation as a case history. Instead, display a newspaper-style headline, give a short description that names the client (with permission) and discuss the business issue they were facing. Clients don’t want to see all of your legal activity, they want to see how your services solved their problem.
