For about seven years now I have managed a Blog on this website on which continued and expanded discussions of all aspects of climate change can be displayed. A complete list of the titles of each of these posts is provided in the archives provided in the right margins of all pages.
An the end of each of these posts, I have provided a means for the readers to provide any “comments” they wish to have attached to the post. Prior to adding them, I will first read each comment and eliminate any parts that do not concern the specific issue raised in that post. In addition, I will only publish comments which are conceivably supportable by existing scientific knowledge. That is, discussions here will not be of the science fiction variety and I will do my best to focus on real science supportable by experiments and theory.
Alternatively, for a private discourse with me, I invite anyone to email me directly with their comments or questions at ericgrimsrud@gmail.com. I will do my best to promptly reply.
