‘Millions of years’ away?
Dear Editor:
RE: “Hysteria on steroids”? (Aug. 11).
Following Jane Vandervielt’s letter, where she states, “What appears to be hysteria is a cold-hearted plan to make us a Third World country,” you added an editor’s note which begins with “Over 90% of climate scientists believe...”
Who cares what they believe? If they cannot substantiate their “beliefs” with scientific facts, they are doing exactly what the letter writer says: spreading hysteria.
I’ve been listening to these dire predictions for the last 50 years hearing how “in eight years NY and LA are going to be under water and ice caps will melt.”
Hasn’t happened yet, and if it does it will be in a few million years.
