→Bali open letter to U.N.: Typo in date
===Bali open letter to U.N.===
On Dec. 13, 20082007, towards the end of the U.N. climate change conference held in Bali, indonesia, the Financial Post section of the National Post published an open letter to the UN signed by over a hundred climate change skeptics under the title "Don't fight, adapt" [http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=164002], along with the list of signatories [http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=164004]. The letter casts doubt on the [[Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change]] (IPCC) "hypothesis of dangerous human-caused global warming", and argues that current climate change is within natural variations.
In an accompanying commentary by FP editor Terence Corcoran, headlined "A new call to reason," Corcoran describes this letter as having been "signed by more than 100 specialists" and having been "assembled under Robert M. Carter, a professor at the Marine Geophysical Laboratory of James Cook University in Australia." [http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=164001]. Corcoran did not mention the role of the NRSP, nor the fact that Carter is one of the NRSP's scientific advisors.
