GWPF Invites Royal Society Fellows For Climate Change Discussion

London, 22 May: In response to a suggestion by Sir Paul Nurse, the President of the Royal Society, the Global Warming Policy Foundation has invited five climate scientists and Fellows of the Royal Society to discuss the current state of climate science and its wider implications. In a letter to Lord Lawson, the GWPF chairman, Sir Paul stated that the Royal Society "would be happy to put the GWPF in touch with people who can offer the Foundation informed scientific advice."Sir Paul suggested that the GWPF should contact five of their Fellows: Sir Brian Hoskins; Prof John Mitchell; Prof Tim Palmer; Prof John Shepherd and Prof Eric Wolff.The GWPF has now invited the five climate scientists to a meeting with a team of members of the GWPF's Academic Advisory Council and independent scientists and has proposed a two-part agenda:1. The science of global warming, with special reference to (a) the climate sensitivity to carbon dioxide and (b) the extent of natural variability;2. The conduct and professional standards of those involved in the relevant scientific inquiry and official advisory process."I hope the Fellows of the Royal Society will be happy to meet with our team of scientists so that something positive can come out of Sir Paul's recommendation," said Dr Benny Peiser, the Director of the GWPF.Additional Information:Letter by Sir Paul NurseLetter by Lord LawsonLetter By Dr Benny PeiserGWPF Background Papersee also: Global Warming Policy Foundation Accepts Royal Society Offer For Meeting
