Mark Lynas : Science denialism on climate change, GM foods and nuclear power
@ Reading, UK

The Outlook (formerly Copa)
76-78 Kings Road, Reading, RG1 3BJ

Mark Lynas has challenged the political right over its denial of the reality of climate change, and the political left over its denial of the science on the safety and efficacy of GM crops and nuclear power. Why is it that political ideology continually trumps scientific evidence on some of the key issues facing us today, and how might this affect the future of the planet and its people?

19th May begins 9.20am then thru the day
Fracking
London, City, The Mermaid Conference & Event Centre

Confirmed Speakers INCLUDE:
Duarte Figueira, Head of the Office of Unconventional Gas and Oil, Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC)
Dan Byles MP, All Party Parliamentary Group on Unconventional Oil and Gas
Professor John Loughhead, Executive Director, UK Energy Research Centre

- "Fracking: the Debate on Hydraulic Fracturing for Gas will discuss how the advancement of fracking could contribute significantly to the UK's energy security and reduce the reliance on imported gas as the country moves to a low carbon economy.
- The conference will provide delegates with an opportunity to hear about and understand the prospect of increased shale gas extraction in the UK.
- A high profile panel of speakers will discuss the impact of the recent recommendations examining the cases both for and against fracking UK shale."

an idea of the bias

Producer — Tom Reynolds — Govtoday 2014-03-10 12:29 Quoting Keith Tomey:
Where are Greenpeace
Where are Friends of the Earth
Where are the Conservationists in this 'debate'
I've invited representatives from both organisations to speak at the conference. We are keen for the event to be a vibrant and genuine debate. Quote

London
Conference : how scientists and journalists can work together to convey "the correct messages".
by The Environmental Physics group of Institute of Physics IOP
- Yes apparently they have decided that there is "a correct message" already, I note they don't say "the truth", maybe they think thst is different from correct.

"a really impressive line-up."
No Tricks Zone article

@Barry ... Not until June, well Stephen Lewandowsky needs the time to make up his evidence ..oops I mean research his evidence .. well proper evidence , not being his strong point ..which is rather 'dirty PR'
., Jeez the fact that his lot are't disowned by the science community shows the dismal state science has sunk to in the Anglo-world ..truly disgusting and unprofessional

presented by "Justin Rowlatt" who ironically calls himself "Ethical Man" whilst at the same time hyping up the scare, giving airtime to every green nut, but blocks skeptics from the airwaves.
Think subsidies then reads their synopsis

The effects of climate change are creating new business opportunities around the world. Justin Rowlatt meets people who may profit from adapting to the world's changing climate.
- The most convincing evidence that someone really believes something is when they are willing to risk their own money on it. Businesses around the world are doing just that – betting that they can profit from the effects of climate change.
- Justin meets the entrepreneurs who believe there is money to be made from the world's changing climate.

The Precautionary Principle
Can we strike the balance between risk and reward?
London WC1: Charles Darwin House,

This event is part of the Society of Biology's Policy Lates series.
The precautionary principle is often described as a “better safe than sorry” approach when an action is suspected as harmful for humans or the environment, and the scientific evidence for safety is unclear.

It makes sense not to take a risk when we don’t have sufficient information, or when the action is not needed or potentially beneficial in other ways, but is this ever really the case? We face tough decisions over issues such as disease control and food security, and sound science needs to inform decision-making.

Striking a balance between protecting people and the planet while maximising scientific and economic output isn’t easy, nor is communicating these issues. The Precautionary Principle is supposed to help – how can we ensure that it does?

Any feed back from this one I posted in the main blog/unthreaded
Online Hiatus Conference .. Youtube video/fb pages have no comments so I guess people were afraid to pop heads up.
20 March, at 3 PM GMT/11 AM EDT. THURSDAY
by Warming Slowdown Journal Club @ Nature Climate Change and Nature Geoscience (magazines of the We are not always Wrong publishing group)

We’ll be taking questions posted here or using the hashtag #NPGjclub on Twitter. Get started now, and ask away all the way through the live event.
The Google plus link they give for debate

The rate at which the Earth’s atmosphere is warming has slowed in recent years. The reasons presented for this so-called slowdown or #hiatus are varied, and communicating the complexity of this particular avenue of climate science is particularly challenging.

A joint web focus between Nature Climate Change and Nature Geoscience presents original research and opinion pieces on the science and social dimensions surround the warming slowdown

Join us as +Alicia Newton of Nature Geoscience discusses the science and communication of #climatechange over the past two decades with +Lisa Goddard of Columbia University's International Research Institute for Climate and Society, +Karen Akerlof of George Mason University, and +Ed Hawkins of the University of Reading on 20 March, at 3 PM GMT/11 AM EDT. copied from their Facebook event page

When I checked Nature Geo Facebook page, I see people do comment on alarmist stories, but aren't interested in talking about hiatus ..maybe one ofthose cult like psychologivcal effects I talk about.

Las Vegas July 7 - 9, 2014. Heartland present :
9th annual International Conference on Climate Change to meet leading scientists from around the world who question whether “man-made global warming” will be harmful to plants, animals, or human welfare. Learn from top economists and policy experts about the real costs and futility of trying to stop global warming.
A preliminary schedule
Speakers already confirmed include Fred Singer, Craig Idso, Willie, Soon, Roy Spencer, Marc Morano, Christopher Monckton, and Anthony Watts. For more speakers and their bios ..hey guys all 20 so far are male !

..will mythical BigOil be paying for us all to go ? ..ha flaming ha !

but there will be recognition awards "Several prizes will be awarded to scholars, elected officials, and activists for outstanding contributions to the debate over global warming. To nominate someone or to suggest a prize, contact Jim Lakely at jlakely@heartland.org."
maybe some people should be recognised for tenacity against alarmist bullying ?
