re: #287 Obdicut

Great. So you do think that the scientists are lying.

he numbers are, in fact, detailed in what I wrote. Not pulled out of an ass.

So you, Rogue, claim that you know better when climate-monitoring satellites need to be replaced than scientists. Why do you think this?

No, those numbers are pulled out of their ass. It’s a guess at how much more it might cost if the program is delayed. They don’t have anything to back those numbers up other than their contention that things get more expensive in the future.

The new satellites are probably very nice and I’m sure they are an upgrade to the current systems. I believe they’re an upgrade because the NOAA says they are. No one is suggesting the current system is running the risk of falling into the ocean….no one but the writers at climate progress I guess.

I assume you would agree that none of this argument has anything to do with tsunami warning centers. Even without the new satellites their funding is not being cut.
