The 2008 Harold Clough Lecture in Perth with Professor Aynsley Kellow
Australians are being asked to make enormous economic and social sacrifices in the name of 'climate change'. Yet how much do we really know about the science of climate change? And can we rely on scientists to provide us with a fair and unbiased assessment of the evidence?
Professor Aynsley Kellow will answer these questions in this lecture. He will examine the facts about climate change and will discuss the limitations of our knowledge about climate change.
No one with an interest in the future of Australia can afford to miss this lecture.
