I am a student at BYU (yes, the school down south) and I am writing an article for my business writing class about climate change and its affects on skiing in Utah. I have read your book a few time, and will most certainly cite information from it, but I was curious if you know of any additional peer-reviewed research that specifically addresses climate change and how it will affect our skiing here. I am in the early stages of writing, but would be curious if you would also be interested in being interviewed for the article.

Regarding the warmest year on record, NOAA says the increase was 0.04 C over 2015, the British Met Office reported a 0.01 C increase over 2015. Both increases are well within the margin of error which is approximately 0.1 degrees C. A 0.04 increase is meaningless compared to last year since it is well within the margin of error. I do agree that the long term trend of warming (0.99 C if you go with NOAA, less if you go with Met) over the 20th century mean is far from meaningless.Scot Chipmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650190017905455606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6168620747792092240.post-79491578733370620772017-02-16T12:18:13.386-07:002017-02-16T12:18:13.386-07:00Roses are infrared
