The talk is public. It is hosted by the Global Warming Policy Foundation. I’m going to be talking about events over the past year, but will mostly be talking about the increased emphasis by the climate “community” on Climate Extremes, paying particular attention to the IPCC Special Report on Extremes (SREX) published in March, which was the basis of WG2 Co-Chair Christopher Field’s recent testimony to Congress.
These leads into tornados, hurricanes, floods, wildfires, heat waves and droughts, the latter two very topical from this year’s very hot North American summer. (Climate, of course, is not about the weather, except when it’s about the weather.)
from this year’s very hot North American summer.

Evidently, the pacific northwest is no longer part of north america because we sure did not have a hot summer.
North america was hot in some regions. It was not hot in all regions. Please check your facts.
Hope he heats things up over there.
Oh, what a missed opportunity! I’ll be in London (like the previous 2 months and the next one), but with too much post-Olympic packaging to take care of to be able to attend 🙁 I hope everything goes well and we can get some transcriptions / power points / videos of the event afterwards.
Jo Nova site now OK but GWPF still down.
WUWT?
