RP Sr is advertising a "balanced" climate meeting. And why is he so confident of balance? Well, check out the list of organisers and speakers. You could play bingo with them :-).

DeSmogBlog has the details. Apparently, "cut-and-paste" Schulte didn't have anything new to say, not even enough for a journal like Energy and Environment to take it. Although, Richard Littlemore's letter discussing his loose use of other researchers contributions might have helped.
Here is the…
In 2005 I wrote about a survey of "renowned scientists" conducted by spiked (if you've never heard of spiked, read this) that included 14 global warming skeptics and only three from the mainstream of climate science.

Naomi Oreskes’ reply to Schulte got me thinking about the journal Energy & Environment, which appears to be the climate science equivalent of Rivista di Biologia (more here on that particular turkey). The journal was founded in 1990 and it offers a home for climate contrarians. According to…

On the plus side, no Soon or Baliunas so far.
(Dano -- Our corporate media? You mean the one that's been assimilated by Rupert Murdoch? I seem to recall that Blighty has received more than its fair share of that action. But speaking of RM, I always like to quote Harry Shearer when his name comes up: "I used to maintain that (the Simpsons') existence was the one reason not to revoke 'citizen' Rupert's right to plunder this country as his own. Now I'm not so sure.")
I'm sure Singer was disappointed that his presentation materials weren't accepted.
