At NJBIA’s 3rd annual Energy Conference earlier this month, Judith Curry, Ph.D., president and co-founder of the Climate Forecast Applications Network, discussed how political bias and “uniformed certainty” has oversimplified the climate change issue and solutions. 

“Apocalyptic messaging has greatly converged from the scientific foundation and its uncertainties,” said Curry, a retired professor at at the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she served as chair of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences for 13 years. 

“Our political leaders have vastly oversimplified climate change problem and its solutions,” Curry told the audience. “They have conflated the incremental risks from the slow creep of warming with the emergency risks of extreme weather events, which have little to do with the warming.”
