Prof. S. Fred Singer speaks to San Diego Lynceans on climate change

Dr. Singer has been the butt of literary abuse by politicians and global warming advocates. He carries a copy of Naomi Oreskes and Erik M. Conway’s Merchants of Doubt, marked with the places he’s named in the book with their scathing attacks. Too-many-to-count paper post-it markers fringe the pages.

Climate change advocates and alarmists have a way of signaling who they’re afraid of. Singer is a marked man in their book.

Climate change deniers skilfully fuel doubt

Historian Erik Conway did two things this week that might seem counterintuitive, if not downright odd.

He voluntarily left the warmth of Pasadena, Calif., where he works at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, to come to Edmonton during the middle of a bitter cold snap. And while here, as thousands of Edmontonians coaxed their cars to life for the frigid commute home through snow-choked roads, Conway entered a lecture hall at the University of Alberta to present a lecture on global warming.
