Climate Change Science: Fact, Fiction & the Unsettled

I have been invited by the Society of Petroleum Engineers to present a webinar (next Thursday).
This presentation is part of the SPE’s Webinars and Online Education Series:
Take yourself to greater depths right from your desktop with SPE Webinars and Online Education. Join our industry experts as they explore solutions to real problems and discuss trending topics.
Overview of my webinar:
Climate change is a popular topic in today’s society. It is difficult to go a day without hearing something about it in the media. Let’s take the emotions out of the equation and learn from the world renowned scientist, Dr. Judith Curry, about the science behind climate change.
We will come away from this webinar with a better understanding of the following:
• the history of climate and climate science
• the facts, fiction, and the unsettled aspects of climate science
• key climate studies
• recent developments
• influence humans and the petroleum industry have to impact the climate
