Distinguished MIT Professor of Meteorology

This gentleman is taking a lot of heat in the press for scientifically challenging Anthropomorphic Global Warming (AGW similar but not the same as Global Warming Alarmist GWA; see Dr BB) I think his resume demands that he be given scientific respect.

Richard Siegmund Lindzen, Ph.D., (born February 8, 1940) is a Harvard trained atmospheric physicist and the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Lindzen is known for his research in dynamic meteorology, especially planetary waves. He has published over 200 books and scientific papers. He was the lead author of Chapter 7 (physical processes) of the Third Assessment Report of the IPCC on global warming (2001). He has been a critic of some anthropogenic global warming theories and the political pressures surrounding climate scientists
