Email to the Energy Studies Institute on Fred Singer’s Article
Dear Ms Jan Lui
I have always enjoyed the good quality energy insights and views from ESI’s events and publications.
However, in the March issue of the ESI Bulletin, I was surprised to find an article on “Global Warming: Man-Made or Natural?” by S. Fred Singer, which debunks man-made global warming and includes statements such as: “human activities are not influencing the global climate in a perceptible way”; “increases in the CO2 level caused by man are insignificant to climate change”; and “imaginary problem of man-made global warming”.
I would like to understand whether ESI hold the same views as Fred Singer and the motive behind publishing the article. Thank you.

Good day, may I ask what is wrong with the article? I humbly opined that it seems a little emotional to vaguely suggest that ESI took the view of Dr. Singer based on the publishing of just one single article that took the a different view. The article seemed to pose the arguments based on scientific facts; facts that are interpreted from a different perspective. I am not a scientist, but I feel different opinions should be encouraged. Cheers, Weijie.
Hi Weijie, I’m not sure whether ESI has the same views as Fred Singer, which is why I asked. I support different views, except that the “scientific facts” by Fred Singer have been shown to be untrue.
