Global Warming Perspective in Charleston

Climate expert S. Fred Singer will speak at the Charleston Civic Center Little Theater at 7:00 on Tuesday, September 25.  Singer’s topic will be “The Politics of Climate Change:  A Threat to West Virginia.”  His appearance in Charleston is sponsored by Henry Payne of Payne Engineering, the First Presbyterian Church, Blackbird Technology and BB&T Bank.  There is no admission charge.  Doors will open at 6:00 p.m.

Singer is president of the Science & Environmental Policy Project and a Distinguished Research Professor at George Mason University, as well as Professor Emeritus of Environmental Science at the University of Virginia.  He is also the author of “Hot Talk, Cold Science: Global Warming’s Unfinished Debate,” and co-author of “Unstoppable Global Warming:  Every 1,500 years.”
Singer’s basic message is that human activity has had little effect of global warming, but the perception that the burning of fossil fuels is responsible could have extremely negative effects on the U.S. and specifically West Virginia.  This should be an extremely interesting evening for those who are routinely subjected to the anti-coal climate change point of view.  Let’s make sure Dr. Singer gets a full house and a globally warm reception in Charleston next Tuesday.
