University of Colorado climatologist James White joined Chris Horner of the Competitive Enterprise Institute in a recent debate about the causes and appropriate responses to the Earth’s changing climate.
White, a professor of geological sciences and director of CU’s Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, explained the current scientific understanding of the extent and causes of climate change. He holds a Ph.D. in geological sciences from Columbia University.
Horner, an attorney and senior fellow with the Competitive Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank, is the author of “Red Hot Lies: How Global Warming Alarmists Use Threats, Fraud and Deception to Keep You Misinformed.” He received his law degree from Washington University in St. Louis.
The debate was held on April 8 at Colorado Christian University in Lakewood and was sponsored by the Centennial Institute.
