Professor Freeman Dyson in Charlie Rose (2009)

Great to hear Dyson talking about Dawkins wasting time convincing young people to be atheists. I think the same. Dawkins, Lawrence Krauss and even Peter Atkins lose their time with this ridiculous discussion. Incredible futile talk. We don't live anymore in Galileo's era.

the cia interrogator tackles brilliance of mind...geez....

Freeman dyson is really a "Free" man.

There are two fact CO2 is a green house gas that will aid in warming up the word and the ice caps are melting. He says he does not know the problem so he doesn't know what to blame "basically", but surly reducing a contributing factor is going to help global warming to some degree. He said humans are not to blame, but i believe we should take it out of natures hands and make gm "genetically modified" plants To reduce C02 or develop some technology that aids in the production. On the other hand we could also put it back in natures hands and plant back the trees and let nature flourish to produce the Oxygen and consume the CO2.

Second Michio Kaku emerging +++

I thought Charlie Rose was smart. He just proved how completely stupid he is with his idiotic global warming bullshit.

Freeman Dyson and Richard Feynman went for a ride....

He isn't not afraid to go against the grain. You have to give him credit for having courage to state his beliefs.

Thanks Freeman Dyson for being so damn cool and all your massive contributions through the years!

Dyson is an idiot savant. He says there is no survival benefit for being able to calculate numbers, compose string quartets, paint paintings. uhhh....social cohesion? building things? not getting lost? feed yourself? How does a distinguished physicist not have even a rudimentary understanding of natural selection?

Master Dyson knows that the miniscule fractions of a degree we are warming cannot be caused by humanity's tiny addition to the enormous atmosphere.

Oh my, the wisdom this man has accumulated! I wish THAT could be bottled and given IV! Both "sides" could learn a life lesson just from what he said about himself and his friend. Although they disagree, they're STILL friends. Do you know what cause that? Mutual respect. Our country is sorely lacking in respect of ANY kind.

Interesting theory on the origins of life. Immense respect for a scientist who can separate his theory of life from his belief in God. In my opinion, as they are both based on theory, which comes from the best known information at the time, one is just a likely as the other to be true. Again, if one can just respect hose with whom they disagree, the possibilities are unlimited.

If Dyson were a woman do ya think Charlie would harass him?

Never forget it's (was) the Charlie Rose Show--he reminds you every other word the guest says

Molested any women today Charlie, you sanctimonious leftist fraud.

This I should the last great scientist. Now we have pseudo scientists like Wdward Witten who have little imagination and conceptual clarity. They are just superb in manipulating numbers. It's fitting the so called greatest physicist is a renowned mathematician.

It's so refreshing to hear an interview where questions are answered immediately with "Yes" or "No" and not with some fuzzy logic canned rhetoric.

Environmental degradation is a much more serious problem than climate change.
People can walk from a rising ocean but can't run rom an atmosphere that is not breathable.
Iceland is enjoying global warming and so am I in northern Canada.

The revelation for me was that Nixon unilaterally got rid of all the USA's biological weapons.

I feel really discomforted by Charlie Rose's finger pointing. How dare he!

Freeman Dyson is The Man!!!

Charlie strikes out looking... again. Actually he wasn't as bad as he obviously as he wanted to be at the beginning, making the now non issue of GW such a big deal instead of focussing more on Dr. Dyson's accomplishments in theoretical physics and mathematics.

I do believe that we should look after the planet. I hate to see what we have done to the natural world esp the oceans when I see all the plastic in the ocean or forests which are homes to millions or thousands or hundreds of animals just for the sake of growing something we in the West buy; it's absolutely devastating to see. It makes me sad actually.
But the fact that they called this man a heretic really had me cracking up in laughter. Is climate change a religious dogma or a scientific theory/fact that can be debated..
Science is been highjacked and becoming something you cannot question. Like a religion.
I wonder what the Newtons and Einsteins would make of this new direction?

Very English ears

Fucking press

This video from 2009 should be rebroadcast endlessly! There's been no warming at all in the decade that followed.

Charlie is Rose is so smug. He has accomplished a fraction of what Freeman Dyson has

A voice of common sense.

Freeman is brave enough to tell the truth. Of couirse, he isn't being paid to lie and tell us we're all going to die from "global warming". The biggest hoax played on man ever.

89 years old and such a clear mind. What a wonderful man!

This man is SUCH a genius. If only people would understand how much of a genius he is.

One of the most wonderful interviews of Dyson that I know. I am honored to call him a friend.

An actual scientist (a genius) evaluates "global warming" in the context of the last 12,000 years.

I love how Mr. Dyson can say something like 'I'm not an expert, but I think the experts are wrong.' To most people that sounds contradictory, but it's just what happens when experts are dishonest or in the grip of an ideology.

Freeman dyson rest in peace brother

Charlie Rose...what a tool...of course he leads with Global Warming not doing his homework in that Freeman wasn't an expert in this "field". Of all the wonderful questions he could have asked this tool this shill towed the party line...thankfully all the way to being canceled. The way he's questioning Freeman after being told this is not my area of expertise is apalling...

Good riddance Rose

RIP...the great Freeman Dyson
