Some people wonder, “Why is global warming happening down/up there at the poles if it is because of man? There aren’t too many of people living there to cause any problem.” Good, common-sense question.

I have little but respect and admiration for Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swede who has launched a worldwide movement of students on strike from school to protest anthropogenic climate change.

Last week in WattsUpwithThat.com I published the article “Did Trump Appoint Jack the Ripper as Guardian of a Girls’ School?” It lampooned, and rebutted, attacks on Princeton physicist Dr. Will Happer and President Donald Trump’s intent for him to head a committee on climate security at the National Security Council. That generated lots of comments,
