	Dossier - Dr. Stephen Schneider
		Stephen Schneider, who received his Ph.D. in Plasma Physics from Columbia University, served as a climate researcher for the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado for two decades.
		Schneider is one of the most ardent advocates of the Global Warming Theory, the proposition that a build-up of CO2, methane and refrigerant gases in the atmosphere could lead to a cataclysmic rise in earth's temperature.
		Schneider is regularly sought-out by journalists to comment on climate matters despite the fact that his analyses are unreliable.

	Stephen Schneider -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In 1971 Schneider was second author on a Science paper with S. Rasool titled "Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide and Aerosols: Effects of Large Increases on Global Climate" (Science 173, 138-141).
		During the 1980's Schneider emerged as a leading public advocate of the (An increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere (especially a sustained increase that causes climatic changes)) global warming theory, in which carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions are held to increase the earth's temperature.
		Schneider has commented publicly about the frustrations and difficulties involved with assessing and communicating scientific ideas.

		Stephen Schneider: I think that we’d be looking at a significant extinction crisis where I don’t know what the number is, it’s impossible to say, this is punctuated by tremendous uncertainty.
		Stephen Schneider is Professor of Biology and Global Change at Stanford University in California; Tom Burke is with the Green Alliance in the United Kingdom, and he’s an adviser to BP and Rio Tinto and he was in London.

	Panel examines communications difficulties when discussing marine fisheries
		Schneider discussed the challenges of assessing and communicating scientific risk during a Feb. 15 symposium -- "Tough Decisions: Dealing with Uncertainty in Managing Marine Fisheries" -- at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Seattle.
		Schneider culled his examples from a different environmental issue, climate change, which he has researched for three decades.
		Schneider first became interested in climate issues after attending a seminar on global warming while he was completing his doctorate in mechanical engineering and plasma physics at Columbia University in 1971.

		Stephen Schneider, Professor in the Biological Sciences Department at Stanford University, is internationally recognized as a leading expert in atmospheric research.
		Schneider seems to bury important points in long paragraphs, which serves to not only confuse me as the reader but also decrease the impact of whatever he is trying to say.
		Schneider says the bottom line of his book is "It is the job of every citizen to choose how to balance environmental risksto become well informed to be able to make value judgmentswhat to do is the responsibility of all of us...".

	Three questions worth considering.
		It's time to empower Americans to become citizen-scientists, Stanford climatologist Stephen Schneider said in Seattle on Tuesday, Feb. 18, 1997 during a session on science and democracy at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
		Science is both objective and subjective, Schneider said, based on facts established by experiments, but also on assumptions about what should be tested by the next round of experiments.
		When he and his fellow scientists are consulted as experts, Schneider said, they must hold themselves to high standards and they must be explicit about the difference between facts, assumptions and values in the information they provide.

	Whole Earth Systems symposium celebrates climatologist Stephen Schneider
		Climatologist Stephen H. Schneider turned 60 on Friday, and to mark the occasion his Stanford colleagues threw a bash befitting one of the world's leading climate experts—a three-day international symposium on climate change and its potential impact on the planet.
		Schneider frequently sat in the front row of the audience; he took copious notes while speakers praised and gently teased him.
		Berger praised Schneider's ability to communicate the complexities of climatology to the public: "Very rapidly at the world scale he's become someone we can rely on, because of his understanding of the problem, but also as a person who likes to provoke, make a point and twist the arms of the policymakers.

		Schneider omitted to tell the public that when two variables correlate, the cause-effect relationship can go either way, or even be subject to an external variable.

	S139 Testimony for Stephen Schneider
		Moreover, climate change is not just a scientific topic but also a matter of public and political debate, and degrees of uncertainty may be played up or down (and further confused, whatever the case) by stakeholders in that debate.
		In Schneider (2003), the three climate sensitivities just explained were combined with two SRES storylines: A1FI, the very high emissions, fossil fuel-intensive scenario; and A1T, the high technological innovation scenario, in which development and deployment of advanced technologies dramatically reduces the long-term emissions.

	New Scientist Breaking News - Two years to save the world
		That's the startling conclusion of leading US climate scientist Stephen Schneider and Swedish energy economist Christian Azar, who are about to publish a bruising assault on the Bush administration's claims that international plans to curb climate change would cripple the US and world economies.
		Schneider's assault comes a week after a further blow was dealt to the prospects that the Kyoto Protocol will come into force.
		But, says Schneider, over a century even the trillions of dollars thought necessary to halt global warming would be a blip compared with the economic advances predicted by the same experts.

	AM - Blair asks the big questions of climate research
		STEPHEN SCHNEIDER: Many scientists, while they will not tell you precisely where they think the danger point is, because they don't want to make that judgment, will tell you they're very uneasy about subjecting the Earth's life support system to an uncontrolled experiment without at least trying to slow it down.
		STEPHEN SCHNEIDER: I think that policy makers have to think about whether or not seemingly uncertain, nevertheless reasonably positive risks are something we should just blindly accept without trying to do something about it.
		If we know that small island states and mountain ecosystems and other things are already becoming of concern, we know that there's going to be an increase in ocean temperatures, therefore a plausible case for increasing the intensity of cyclones and hurricanes, drought and flood frequency extremes are projected to increase.
