Nobel Prize in Physics Awarded for Study of Humanity's Role in Changing Climate

The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded on Tuesday to three scientists whose work “laid the foundation of our knowledge of the Earth’s climate and how humanity influences it.”
The winners were Syukuro Manabe of Princeton University, Klaus Hasselmann of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg, Germany, and Giorgio Parisi of the Sapienza University of Rome. The work of all three is essential to understanding how the Earth’s climate is changing and how human behavior is influencing those changes.
“The discoveries being recognized this year demonstrate that our knowledge about the climate rests on a solid scientific foundation, based on a rigorous analysis of observations,” said Thors Hans Hansson, chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics.
Complex systems, such as the climate, are often defined by their disorder. This year’s winners helped bring understanding to the seeming chaos, by describing those systems and predicting their long-term behavior. Dr. Manabe demonstrated how increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere lead to increased temperatures on the surface of the Earth.

Congrats and timely subject!
= new reply since forum marked as read
Many thanks & congrats to winners!
who thinks that global warming is a hoax perpetrated by grant-seeking scientists--that the Nobel committee is also on the take.
P.S. He's also a Federal LEO who "knows" from personal communication with DEA and BP agents that Bill and Hillary are murderous drug dealers, etc. Scary.
people might be surprised how many "government-hating" federal workers there are. Makes you wonder if they fathom the cognitive dissonance of their employment. 
it was more for the paycheck and benefits (that they despise).
I have found that a number of those like that were previously in the military and either retired from there after 20 years and/or transferred to civilian (government) agencies to finish out their careers.
who was actually a communications specialist, so not doing any ground combat, and during his career, he and his wife lived all over at different bases. But once he moved to civilian life and settled down (which was probably one impetus for some vets - not having to do the constant moves) - he was literally all-Rush Limpballs, all day (along with the other '80s RW loons on the radio at the time - some still on today), literally from their earliest shows... and he was definitely pro-Raygun. I think that is what roped in many of them - they believed Raygun's anti-government hype - literally a President who was "in charge of" the government ranting and raving against it.
Of course he, like many like him, had many family issues (particularly with his son) and that type of distress and angst seemed to have been recognized and channeled by the RW talk radio ilk, who re-directed their anger to focus on "the libs", eventually leading to the nonsense that we see today.
