Description
Steven Koonin of the Hoover Institution/Stanford University will discuss:
* Popular and political discussions of the changing climate invariably invoke “The Science” as settled.
* But a careful reading of the research literature and government assessment reports shows a very different picture.
* This talk will describe some of the surprises in the official science that belie the notion that we’ve already broken the climate and face certain doom unless we take prompt and drastic action.
