Wanted - Five Members To Present Their Views On Climate Change

[Paul]

Hi all, as part of a series of climate related threads and discussions I'd like to start on here (and push onto other parts of Netweather and our social media sites), I'm hoping to find five volunteers to put together a fairly detailed (doesn't have to be crazy in depth) summary of their views on climate change, what has lead to those views and so on.

Ideally I'd like to feature these as start points for discussions and, if all goes well to continue with this theme of featuring people's views going forward, and maybe even following those people over the upcoming months and years to see if/why their opinions have changed etc. The aim is to have people from across the climate change view spectrum within the initial five, so if you think you may fit the bill and would like to be involved then please drop me a pm or email.

Cheers

Paul

i will give it plenty of thought, paul.

My area of interest in subject is the impact that climate change is no doubt having on nature, The argument of what is driving climate change not my area of expertise,

If I can be of any assistance let me know

[mikeworst]

I was going to do just that on the p r thread but decided that I could do without all the flak that comes with it. On reflection though I would be prepared to air my opinions as a sceptic of AGW.

While I'd like to contribute to this, I doubt I'll have the time over the next few weeks.

Anywho, none of us are experts in climate change, so I hope that doesn't put people off posting

I very much doubt that I would have the eloquence to adequately portray what has driven my need to understand where we were headed over the years that went into forming my current opinion and , as I view things today, I do not think we have the time that you envisage to see the blossoming of folks opinions?

There is only 1 reality and the way we perceive that reality is what you appear interested in? The reality will leave folk in no doubt that something major is now occurring in our world (and not 'subtle changes taking place over decades) and that it's 'cause' is new and novel (outside our paleo climate's lessons).

Being a weather site the rapid and extreme changes to our weather will surely lead folk to wonder as to causality? If last years low ice has a similar impact to the 07' event then by September we will see a lot more folk quite happy to listen to the science. Though far from 'settled' it provides us all with enough to see that it's direction is sound and that the beliefs of the majority of folk engaged in the science are worthy of noting.

Wanted to bump this, we need a few more volunteers if anyone would like to get involved...

[pottyprof]

I'd volunteer but I'm still struggling with health issues Paul. Got an exam coming up too and I'm making hard work of revision.

[Iceberg]

I ve not really been involved in the climate section for a good while really, however I would be prepared to put together a couple of pages detailing my thoughts, views, how they have developed over the past 20 years etc.

My principle angle has always been economics and climate change and combining the two.

Pm me if you still need peeps.

Cheers
