Christie invited to meeting on global warming [hoax] | Philadelphia Inquirer | 11/17/2010

Four scientists from Rutgers and Princeton Universities have asked Gov. Christie to join them for a climate lesson. The invitation was in response to comments Christie made during a town-hall meeting last Wednesday in which he said he was "skeptical" about whether humans were influencing global warming. The speed and impact of the Earth's warming are still being assessed, they wrote Tuesday in a letter to Christie. "But that humans are a key cause of climate change is not in doubt, nor is there doubt that the more emissions of the greenhouse gases grow, the more climate will change," the letter said. The letter was signed by Michael Oppenheimer of Princeton and Paul G. Falkowski, James R. Miller, and Judith Weis of Rutgers. The scientists invited Christie to meet Dec. 1 at the State House Annex. Christie spokesman Kevin Roberts said his office was aware of the letter but declined to comment further. - Chelsea Conaboy
