News American Physical Society on climate change

AI Thread Summary
The American Physical Society (APS) has not changed its position on climate change despite recent discussions surrounding an article by Christopher Monckton, which lacked peer review and contradicted the scientific consensus. The APS clarified that the article appeared in a division newsletter and does not reflect the society's views, emphasizing that it remains aligned with the overwhelming scientific agreement on human-induced global warming. The controversy arose from misinterpretations of the newsletter's content, leading to exaggerated claims about a shift in APS's stance. The society's official reports continue to affirm the reality of climate change and the significant human contribution to it. Overall, the APS maintains its commitment to the established scientific consensus on climate issues.

I know what you mean, we basically had no summer, our daily temperatures are ranging 10-20 degrees lower than average. There were very few days that we even hit average. Spring was cold and well below average also.
Same here in Ireland. We had the wettest summer for 170 years and in Ireland that's saying something!

Wow. In BC we had snow at 1200 feet until June! And this is a coastal region which is normally warm. Needless to say we had plenty of Guiness to keep us smiling. Thank you for that!
