Cabrol, if the Earth was doing alone? Holocaust denial?




by Christophe » 10/06/08, 10:09

"What if the earth got out of this on its own?" This is the title of Laurent Cabrol's latest book. Let's not go four ways: this book is criminal. In what sense? This is what I will defend in this short post.

Staying at all costs

Laurent Cabrol, 61 years, is ousted beginning of 2008 TF1: it will no longer present Téléshopping. How to keep your media presence? Maybe the publication of a book dealing with a major problem would be welcome ... And if he wrote about global warming. Even better ! And if he tried to show that what we think about it is wrong! And no ! it would not be the man, the person responsible for this warming! Controversial thesis: at least the book will make talk, and Laurent Cabrol would not be totally dead and removed from the media. One last burst.

Ecological negationism

Basically, Laurent Cabrol's thesis is demagogic: it pleases those who do not want to make the effort required for responsible ecological awareness. "What if the earth got out of this on its own?" What if I could refrain from acting and engaging? And it is on this point that this book is criminal: it encourages us to stop making efforts to reduce our impact on global warming. In doing so, it contributes to endangering future generations and ourselves. Our house is on fire. He sprinkles it with gasoline.

A far-fetched thesis: the responsible sun ...

The sun is responsible for global warming? But of course ! This controversial thesis has been dismantled for some time in the journal Nature (CF.Agoravox), which has shown that the solar system is generally in a cooling phase. Which means that if the sun increased in intensity, the current global warming would be even worse ... For many years, theses resurfacing against human responsibility have resurfaced. But they rarely arise from great scientists.

The omniscience of Laurent Cabrol



Moreover, Laurent Cabrol emphasizes the fact that there is no certainty: meteorology and ecology are very uncertain sciences. Great fuzziness remains in our understanding of the world and in the relations between things. As a result, we can not even say to what degree man intervenes. Therefore, Laurent Cabrol thinks he is authorized to say that his thesis of the non responsibility of the man is worth as much as the opposite ...

O Mother Nature, hear our prayers!

Finally, the responsibility of the man is evacuated in favor of a Nature, Mother Nature, protector because self-regulated. The house burns but it self-manages: one way or another, everything is balanced. An immense proof of rationalism that offers us there Laurent Cabrol. A great think, no doubt. So great that, even as he denounces the lack of ecological knowledge, he professes THE truth, the only truth: Nature will solve our problems. Let's no longer sort our rubbish, consume more thirst, melt the remnants of the polar ice cap, raise the level of the oceans, let off on which better our greenhouse gases! Mother Nature will expiate our sins!


He is con that Cabrol (there are no other words) just like his publisher (his nigger?), Obviously the planet Earth will come out ... but at what price for biodiversity and humanity?

THEPermian extinction is a good example showing that the Earth has already survived a terrible warming ... but in 100 000 years ...

Ben us no, but we knew it already :D
On the other hand, Carbol is (well is supposed to) be a "good" meteorologist, right?

Hello,
it's pretty much the signature of a futura-science member (skeptical radical extremists) : Mrgreen: , I found that not bad at all as "philosophy"
In fact he wrote "how can you feel good in a deeply sick society"


To come back to the book, it is nevertheless true that the planet would do "better" without men!

The planet will come out IN EVERY CASE ... it would only need 100 000 years to recover the pre-industrial climate ...

And 100 times more, 10 000 000 years to recreate the biodiversity we are destroying ...

But this Cabrol seems to bump ... it is not wrong (the Earth will not implode under the effect of warming) but it puts all the consequences between () is at least what the title make believe...

Publisher's presentation
Yes, the Earth is warming up and "the weather" is changing. But who is responsible? The climate has always varied and for centuries, in proportions often much more brutal than today (Christophe's note: Oh, when?). We are told truths and we feel guilty, but what do we know about the mechanisms of global warming? Almost nothing. The climate machine is appallingly complex and we have no scientific certainty about the reaction of oceans, clouds, carbon measurements, temperatures and the role of the Sun. And if the Earth, living organism (HM hm...)did she carry the resources to get by on her own? Laurent Cabrol, a journalist specializing in the weather for twenty-five years, rebels against the single thought, analyzes without passion - and with clarity - the factors of the warming and shows us that everything remains to be discovered. A book cleaner that should fuel a debate never really open.

Be careful, I'm going to be lynched, but I think you're all sitting in your certainty.
although a convinced econologist, I still doubt and I like to read the different opinions. I don't know if I'll read this book but at first glance, the theses (which already smell a little warm, I grant) seem to be similar to the controversial English report "great global warming swindle" which had the merit of highlighting light from the elements always overlooked such as the influence of the ocean, the sun and water vapor.
In short: as the other says: "everyone agrees to criticize the single thought ...."
I let you think about it.
