Letter: Freedom of speech keeps climate change argument alive

Just read the letter to the editor, “Little Ice Ages are Predicted.”

Just read the letter to the editor, “Little Ice Ages are Predicted.”

While we are at quoting research authorities without citing a single source, I’d like to say that a third of the polar ice cap has melted.

There is no previous record of that much of the polar cap melting.

It suggests rising sea levels, diminished prey for marine mammals that migrate to that region, and it means less habitat for animals such as polar bears.

Fortunately we have freedom of speech in our country and anyone can write a letter to a local paper and claim pretty much anything and say “scientists said so.”

Oh ya, what has Greenpeace been up to?

I hope the French government isn’t still using its Special Forces to assassinate Greenpeace members and destroy Greenpeace property.

The champions of “Liberte, Egalite, et Fraternite” wouldn’t want Brigitte Bardot on their case.
