More than 70 of the world’s elite scientists, economists and others specializing in climate issues will confront
the subject of global warming at the second annual International Conference on Climate Change March 8­10,
2009 in New York City.
They will call attention to new research that contradicts claims that Earth’s moderate warming during the
twentieth century primarily was man­made and has reached crisis proportions.
Headliners among the 70­plus presenters will be:
American astronaut Dr. Jack Schmitt—the last living man to walk on the moon.
William Gray, Colorado State University, leading researcher into tropical weather patterns.
Richard Lindzen, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, one of the world’s leading experts in 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 graph­­thoroughly
discredited in scientific circles­­supposedly proved that mankind is responsible for a sharp increase in
earth temperatures.
Arthur Robinson, curator of a global warming 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, Harvard­Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
Roy Spencer, University of Alabama at Huntsville, principal research scientist and team leader on
NASA’s Aqua satellite.
