I still have friends who are doubters when it comes to the causes of climate change. I wonder what they’ll say to the fact that President Bush’s science adviser does not appear to share those doubts. The BBC interviewed Professor John Marburger, and he was unequivocal in his agreement with the idea that increased burning of fossil fuels is causing global warming. Like most scientists, he’s not sure how much we need to reduce carbon emissions or how soon we have to do it, but he states clearly that if we don’t change anything, the consequences will be disastrous. I’d pull some juicy quotes, but unfortunately the best stuff is in the audio interview linked from the article.
The last word on climate change?
