«This conversion [by the original US climate alarmist Jmes Hansen] to honesty came too late, however, for in the intervening years
thousands of other climate scientists had meanwhile climbed onto the Hansenist funding gravy - train.
Have you subjected your finding to the unsparing
scrutiny of other climate scientists, by submitting it for publication in appropriate peer - reviewed journals, or debating it at, say, the annual AGU meeting or other formal venues?
But while
plenty of other climate scientists hold firm to the idea that the full range of possible outcomes, including a disruptively dangerous warming of more than 4.5 degrees C. (8 degrees F.), remain in play, it's getting harder to see why the high - end projections are given much weight.
The authors included Dr. Richard S. Lindzen, a meteorologist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who for years has expressed skepticism about some of the more dire
predictions of other climate scientists about the significance of human - caused warming.
Harvey hopes his team's study will compel more scientists to engage on blogs and other public forums, as his Pennsylvania State University - based co-author Michael Mann and a
handful of other climate scientists have.
McIntyre claimed that Mann had misrepresented the findings of reports and inquiries into his work and the work
of other climate scientists in relation to the so - called «climategate» affair, when the emails of scientists at the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia were illegally hacked and then published.
Independent videographer Peter Sinclair recorded White, along with a
number of other climate scientists during the December meeting of the American Geographical Union in San Francisco, Ca.
While Maibach's formulation may be the most compelling one, it would be fraudulent to use it without evidence that all 97 % of climate scientists based their opinions on their own independent evaluation of the evidence, rather than on the
opinions of other climate scientists whom they trusted.
