Physics Professor Resigns: Claims Global Warming is Pseudoscientific Fraud

Harold Lewis - Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara recently included the following verbiage is his letter of resignation to Curtis G. Callan Jr, Princeton University - President of the American Physical Society (APS).
For reasons that will soon become clear my former pride at being an APS Fellow all these years has been turned into shame, and I am forced, with no pleasure at all, to offer you my resignation from the Society.

It is of course, the global warming scam, with the (literally) trillions of dollars driving it, that has corrupted so many scientists, and has carried APS before it like a rogue wave. It is the greatest and most successful pseudoscientific fraud I have seen in my long life as a physicist. Anyone who has the faintest doubt that this is so should force himself to read the ClimateGate documents, which lay it bare. (Montford’s book organizes the facts very well.) I don’t believe that any real physicist, nay scientist, can read that stuff without revulsion. I would almost make that revulsion a definition of the word scientist.
