It also transparently overplays the implications of ECS relative to TCR, the latter obviously being of greater relevance to policy. The conclusion unfortunately fails to acknowledge the many negative social and envionmental implications of climate policies which entail higher energy costs, and in particular the impacts on poorer countries. Unless this is acknowleged, the scientific case for climate action will continued to be ignored in the rapidly industrialising developing countries, as a secondary issue to growth, jobs, education, health and living standards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-43084809225336967862015-03-27T08:53:01.952+11:002015-03-27T08:53:01.952+11:00Thanks for pointing that out, Sou.

I downloaded a number of papers dealing with bird migration and climate change (which is my main connection with climate change), that I don't have yet.
