Climatron: Personal Blog of Kyle Vandercamp

Professor Bob Watson (UEA)

This is particularly sobering news – the careful, cautious voice raised in frustration at the constant salvos of the skeptics. There was press this weekend that a horde of emails had been leaked online that showed “collusion” between IPCC scientists and “framing” of the data to prove climate change occurrence. The insult to sensibility is answered in Professor Bob Watson’s response

In this one interview, Watson frames the biggest questions of our time: a 3-4 degree average rise in global temperature, geoengineering, the incredible influence of a handful of humans to impact the world in a way that breaks with history lessons.

So this is what I know about Scientists – they will retaliate against extraordinary offense to intelligence and sensitivity, just don’t expect it to be in the form of a booming fog horn: for your own sake, let what they have to say in.
