Seven or eight years ago I would have read this and delved into their techniques. Now I find it a waste of my time because their data is likely skewed by their fund- master, or their preconceived notions. I adored science up until peer- review wasn’t doing it’s job. I would say, climate- gate made me skeptical of anything... or maybe even a non- believer in man’s view of the world. Everyone has an agenda.. from the climate change folks, to the “unnecessary medical testing” crowd.
Professor Elderfield sounds like he’s parodying himself— we’re going to find out how man is changing the climate and how we can prepare for future changes by studying geological changes that took place over millions of years.
