 HinesSight: So-called “climatologist” George Taylor has to go
Regardless, Taylor loves to spout off about how humans really aren’t a big factor in causing global warming, an unscientific position that makes him a darling of big oil and conservative organizations like the Heartland Institute, which recently trotted Taylor out as among the serious scientists who are debunking scaremongering about climate change.
Taylor heads the "Oregon Climate Service," which was established in 1991 by the legislature to "disseminate and interpret climate data and information for the state." But now that the head of the Oregon Climate Service has scientific findings that differ from the governor's, the governor wants to change the rules.
I haven't heard much of George Taylor, or evaluated the information surrounding his claim to title of "State Climatologist." To me, his political title seems irrelevant compared to how his climate theories polarize people regarding their beliefs.
