I'm not very supportive of controlling other people's agenda and telling people what to do and what to write about, but if we're going down that route, then I think you should fix your paper and FAQ and set the record straight at NYT.<br /><br />-Brian<br /><br />(Note that I just finished my vacation and published Roger's comment above from moderation - he had submitted it on Feb. 26, apparently.)Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09301230860904555513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803306.post-805352012342544622010-02-26T06:41:40.989-08:002010-02-26T06:41:40.989-08:00Brian-

Hansen writes, "a feasible strategy for planetary rescue almost surely requires a means of extracting [greenhouse gases] from the air". That is it. Whether he supports chemical air capture or not is irrelevant to any argument that I have made.<br /><br />Again, I ask that you set the record straight at the NYT on this issue. It is not complicated and your allegations are wrong.Roger Pielke, Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04711007512915460627noreply@blogger.com
