Climate change information being ignored
Monday, April 12th, 2010A Scottish professor has recently claimed that information on climate change, and how to tackle it is sat festering in archives- effectively being ignored.
Professor Alastair Dawson, who works at Aberdeen University, voiced his concerns after realising that weather reports from the past are being filed away without being studied, and that through conducting a little research, a lot could be learnt.
He commented:
“If we are to have an informed discussion on how our weather and climate is changing, we need first to learn the nature of past changes and provide reasoned explanations of why such changes took place.”
It remains to be seen whether or not his pleas will fall on deaf ears…
