An In-Depth COVID Discussion

Our discussion leader December is Bud Bromley, formerly of Gloucester, MA, now living in Holualoa, Hawaii.   We will push off our discussion for a week, rescheduling a week later, on Thursday, December 17 and moving it to 7PM eastern time to accommodate Bud in Hawaii.  Here is his bio: Bud's entrepreneurial leadership exceeded three decades. He was the senior business development, marketing and sales executive at four public corporations, each company a supplier of analytical and life sciences instrumentation, software, consumables and service. Prior to those positions, his 19 year career in Hewlett-Packard Company's Analytical Products Group included worldwide sales and marketing responsibility for Bioscience Products, Global Accounts and the International Olympic Committee, as well as international management assignments in Japan and Latin America. Bud has visited and worked in more than 65 countries and lived and worked in 3 countries. As an executive for bioscience c...

A Quarrel with the Concept of Man-Induced Climate Change

Popular science and the popular media has for some time now accepted "global warming," aka "climate change" caused by man's activities as a fait accompli. Unlike standard scientific information, this body of work is not open to typical scientific scrutiny (try to find formally published rebuttal).  Indeed any critics of this body of work are generally denigrated and impugned by so-called "climate scientists."   The purpose of this information presented for discussion is to explore the facts and basic data relevant to climate change and its study and to quarrel with this intransigent theory-made-fact-by-popular-voice.  Those with the popular voice would call me a climate skeptic; I call myself a climate realist.  For me, man-induced climate change is a catastrophically failed hypothesis. The basic over-arching reference for the summary of the relevant scientific literature has been the  Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change  or IPCC Reports by a bo...

Friday Feb 14 Meeting: Carbon Sequestration

Our presentation for February 14, 1-2:30 PM, 2020 will be a presentation by Dr, Tom Mikus on the topic of Carbon Sequestration.   Carbon sequestration describes long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon to mitigate global warming and avoid climate change impact. While this meeting is more generally a presentation rather than a discussion, you can still prepare for learning about the topic by visiting and exploring the website www.co2captureproject.org . Tom is retired from Shell Oil and has been involved with The Joint Industry Task Force formed a Drafting Committee to the Carbon Capture and Geological Storage Emission Reduction Project Family. You can read about some of their work here:  https://www.api.org/~/media/Files/EHS/climate-change/Carbon-Capture-Geological-Storage-Emission-Reduction-Family.pdf For a future meeting this spring we have arranged a tour of the new GMGI (Gloucester Marine Genomics Institute) facility on the harbor sho...
