LAST MEETING

March 10, 2008 - An alternate view of climate change was presented. Richard Schultz introduced the DVD presentation titled "The Great Global Warming Swindle", edited by Dr. Richard S. Lindzen, IPCC & MIT.  This alternate view demonstrated that global temperatures correlate much better with sun activity than with change in carbon dioxide.  Further evidence is that change in carbon dioxide concentrations follow temperature rather than leading it.
