When the Heartland Institute held its gathering in New York City last year celebrating climate skepticism, Exxon Mobil made a point of saying it had stopped contributing money to that group, explaining that it did not want to support groups «whose position on climate change could divert attention from the important discussion about how the world will secure the energy required for economic growth in an environmentally responsible manner.»
I consider my work to perfectly jibe with that which was expressly called for by the American Geophysical Union (of which I am a member) in its recent position statement on climate change, that is:
Or it may be caused by any other mechanism (like the influence of solar changes on the jet stream position) which enhance the simple direct insolation change which is incorporated in several current climate models...
Regardless of what one may think of their purpose for this report or their likely position on AGW, I think there presentation of the wild swings in media coverage of changing climate is probably about right.
«Researching Don't Even Think About It, which I see as the most important book published on climate change in the past few years, George Marshall discovered that there has not been a single proposal, debate or even position paper on limiting fossil fuel production put forward during international climate negotiations.
I believe it's time for Rajendra K. Pachauri to take a new approach to discussing climate change or leave the chairmanship of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change after nearly a decade in that poclimate change or leave the chairmanship of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change after nearly a decade in that poschange or leave the chairmanship of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change after nearly a decade in that poClimate Change after nearly a decade in that posChange after nearly a decade in that position.
We said at the time that we had discontinued contributions to several public policy research groups whose position on climate change could divert attention from the important discussion about how the world will secure the energy required for economic growth in an environmentally responsible manner.
The lines of evidence and analysis supporting the mainstream position on climate change are diverse and robust — embracing a huge body of direct measurements by a variety of methods in a wealth of locations on the Earth's surface and from space, solid understanding of the basic physics governing how energy flow in the atmosphere interacts with greenhouse gases, insights derived from the reconstruction of causes and consequences of millions of years of natural climatic variations, and the results of computer models that are increasingly capable of reproducing the main features of Earth's climate with and without human influences.
When we take a position that isn't willing to embrace evolution, when we take a position that basically runs counter to what 98 of 100 climate scientists have said, what the National Academy of Science — Sciences has said about what is causing climate change and man's contribution to it, I think we find ourselves on the wrong side of science, and, therefore, in a losing position.

He said that the large majority of governments at the Second Meeting of the conference of Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (held in Geneva in June 1996), «while recognizing uncertainties, believe that we know enough to take some actions now,» and that this position was supported by more than 2000 independent scientists in a letter to President Clinton several weeks ago.
And, of course, McIntyre is entirely dispassionate in this demand, it's not like he has taken a public position on climate change and is being entirely hypocritical by demanding people he disagrees with be fired for fake political reasons.
If Dr Curry's scientific position is «there is a considerable amount of uncertainty, therefore we should at least be able to draw some boundaries around them before pushing for a consensus on certainty» (I hope my paraphrase is close to the mark), then advocating for a change in the process of conducting climate science follows logically.
But we are supposed to think that that's irrelevant because immediately after experimenters told them «97 % of scientists accept climate change,» a group of study subjects, while not changing their own positions on whether climate change is happening, increased by a very small amount their expressed estimate of the percentage of scientists who believe in climate change?
At least half of the 60 - plus S&T related positions identified in the Academy report will involve some level of involvement in one aspect or another of climate change: scientific research; assessment of climate change impacts; analysis and evaluation of adaptation and mitigation strategies; development of energy and other technologies for a carbon - constrained economy and society; and so on.
«Committed terrestrial ecosystem changes due to climate change» When trying to position the Amazon tipping point on the scale of the global temperature rise, one of the most - often cited studies is one from the year 2009, performed by a team of researchers of the UK Met Office Hadley Centre, led by Chris Jones and published in Nature Geoscience.
Likewise, we look to you to guide ExxonMobil to capitalize on its significant resources and prominent industry position to assist this country in taking its appropriate leadership role in promoting the technological innovation necessary to address climate change and in fashioning a truly global solution to what is undeniably a global problem.
