"Veteran climate scientists are organizing a coordinated public comment to a US
Department of Energy (DOE) report that cast doubt on the scientific consensus
on the climate crisis.
The report, published late last month, claimed concerns about planet-warming
fossil fuels are overblown, sparking widespread concern from scientists who
said it was full of climate misinformation; it was an attempt to support a
proposal from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to undo the
“endangerment finding”, which forms the legal basis of virtually all US climate
regulations.
“A public comment from experts can be useful because it injects expert analysis
into a decision-making process that might otherwise be dominated by political,
economic, or ideological considerations,” said Andrew Dessler, a climate
researcher at Texas A&M University who is organizing the response to the
report. “Experts can identify technical errors, highlight overlooked data, and
clarify uncertainties in ways that improve the accuracy and robustness of the
final policy or report.”
The response comes as part of a broader wave of experts’ attempts to uphold
established climate science as the Trump administration promotes contrarian and
unproven viewpoints."
