Le “NEC PLUS ULTRA”
EN MATIÈRE D’INFORMATION SUR
LES CHANGEMENTS CLIMATIQUES
|
GUS, « Nec plus ultra », c'est du latin,
malheureusement ce que Bof te
conseille ici est un site en langue anglaise… Un petit effort de ta
part qui sera bien récompensé. C’est une nouveauté, une mine inépuisable de
renseignements pour quiconque aime les débats d’idées sur des sujets brûlants.
Et les suivre au jour le jour… Mon cher Gus,
si tu t’intéresses toujours au
changement climatique. Si tu ne
t’en remets pas simplement aux mots d’ordre de Greenpeace au moment de leur souscription annuelle; si
tu n’a pas encore capitulé et
déjà acheté tes maillots de bain et
récupéré ta bouée en canard gonflé de ton enfance pour affronter la hausse de
vingt pieds des océans annoncée par Gore, tu peux consulter ce nouveau site
qui semble à Bof qui s’intéresse depuis longtemps à ce problème (voir Écologie
et Alarmisme) une véritable bibliothèque virtuelle.
Tu y trouveras une mine
d’informations comme Bof n’en a jamais
trouvée et qui semble faire le tour du problème le plus objectivement
possible et de façon le plus
englobante. Si l’anglais n’est pas un
obstacle, c'est la source
d’information numéro Un. Un « must » dans toute bonne
bibliothèque virtuelle (digne d’un
signet). A consulter quotidiennement. Bof donne ici une vue de la première page (10 janv. 2008) avec ses
multiples références…. Tu en as pour
quelques mois de lecture et des heures
à suivre quotidiennement l’échange des idées… A la fin,
tu mériteras certainement un diplôme, un bac en écologie.. http://climatedebatedaily.com/
Gus, tu n’as qu’à aller à l’adresse ci-haut donnée. Pour illustrer son propos, Bof se permet pour montrer toute la
richesse du site de copier ici des extraits de la première page qui a
plutôt l’allure d’un rayon de
bibliothèques. 1. Un
recueil d’une quarantaine d’articles référencés allant dans le sens des positions du Giec (IPCC) .
