climate conference

James Hrynyshyn at Island of Doubt yesterday put up a really interesting examination of the Copenhagen Conference's efforts to deal with just what is the "safety limit" for global warming. I won't add much accept to lament the fact that "as much as possible as soon as possible" is too vague for public policy goals. Because really, that is the only correct answer to the question politicians want scientists to answer: how much do we need to reduce CO2 emissions? Have a read.
Eli Rabett reports that Brian Schmidt reports that Inel reports a fake climate conference phishing scam. Just thought I should report that! How much money could a scammer get from that!? Hardly the same universal appeal as your typical "Nigerian banker wants to share $35 million with you" scam. Oh well, just don't sign up.
