Can we still avoid Dangerous Climate Change
April 4, 2006
James Hansen is one of the world's leading climate scientists, and is director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
He has recently attracted attention for criticising the Bush administration for suppressing scientific information that it didn't like. There is an interesting article from the NYTimes on this controversy.
I recently read the text of one of the talks that caused the controversy, its got some pretty convincing graphs to show just how close we are to the Tipping point at which we can no longer avoid irreversible side effects. Check it out here.
