As we’ve mentioned, Andrew Dessler and Robert Kopp have been coordinating a scientific peer review of the DOW ‘CWG’ Critique of Climate Science. It is now out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The comments are available here<\/a>, and there is a press release<\/a> that gives a summary. It has been picked up by some the media already: NY Times<\/a>, The Guardian<\/a>, CNN<\/a>, Axios<\/a> etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
