New Video: James Hansen on Ice Sheets – 2016 February 24, 2016

I finally caught up with James Hansen at the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting in December, and he gave a terrific interview, touching on many key topics.

Here, he gives a brief synopsis of one of the most important points in his most recent paper. Hansen’s concerns, if borne out, would mean substantially higher sea level rises than most other researchers predict – but one hesitates to bet against someone with his track record.

Bucket list honor for me. I’ll be posting more excerpts from this, and many other interviews from December, in coming months – including a new video on surface temperature measures, and those much ballyhooed “adjustments” – coming (fingers crossed) next week.
