Confirmed Speakers
The world's elite climate scientists will be among the keynoters and presenters at the second annual International Conference on Climate Change March 8-10, 2009 in New York City.
Headliners among the 70-plus scientists will be:
• William Gray, Colorado State University, leading researcher into tropical weather research.
• Richard Lindzen, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, one of the world's leading students of dynamic meteorology, especially planetary waves.
• Stephen McIntyre, primary author of Climate Audit, a blog devoted to the analysis and discussion of climate data. He is a devastating critic of the temperature record of the past 1,000 years, particularly the work of Michael E. Mann, creator of the infamous "hockey stick" graph. That graph--thoroughly discredited in scientific circles--supposedly proved that mankind is responsible for a sharp increase in greenhouse gases.
• Arthur Robinson, curator of the Oregon Institute of Science & Medicine petition signed by more than 32,000 American scientists, including more than 10,000 with doctorate degrees, rejecting the alarmist assertion that global warming has put the Earth in crisis and is caused primarily by mankind.
• Willie Soon, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
• Roy Spencer, University of Alabama at Huntsville, principal research scientist and team leader on NASA's Aqua satellite.
