In 2010, more than 260 scientists who are members of the American Physical Society (APS) endorsed the efforts of skeptical Princeton University Physicist Dr. Will Happer to substantially amend the APS alarmist statement on man-made global warming. Happer; who testified to Congress that the Earth in 'CO2 Famine', initially led a group of 80 prominent physicists in 2009 who petitioned the APS revise its global warming position. The 54 physicists wrote to APS governing board: ―Measured or reconstructed temperature records indicate that 20th - 21st century changes are neither exceptional nor persistent, and the historical and geological records show many periods warmer than today.‖ The peer-reviewed journal Nature published a July 22, 2009 letter by the physicists persuading the APS to review its statement. In 2008, an American Physical Society editor conceded that a ―considerable presence‖ of scientific skeptics exists. The 54 physicists grew to over 260 in 2010 with another open letter to APS. Below is the most current list of signatories expressing dissent from the APS current climate statement. (Note, the list of signatories below includes several new scientists not reflected in the weblink) Regarding the National Policy Statement on Climate Change of the APS Council: A Petition to the Council of the American Physical Society "As current and past members of the American Physical Society, we the undersigned petition the APS Council to commission an independent, objective study and assessment of the science relating to the question of anthropogenic global warming. The assessment should consider findings representing the full scope of available scientific sources. The assessment is to be used as a basis for a new Statement on Climate Change that reflects the current state of scientific knowledge and its uncertainties. This Petition is to be provided to the membership for comment prior to action by the Council." Respectfully, Joseph H.
