The recent floods have global warming on people’s minds again. And while there seems to be agreement that climate change is happening, there are differences over the extent of it and what, if anything, we should be doing about it. We’ll talk about that as New England’s premiere scientists get ready for a major global warming gathering next week. Laura's guest is Cameron Wake, Research Associate Professor at UNH's Climate Change Research Center. We'll also hear from Bob Scott, Director of the Air Resources Division at New Hampshire's Department of Environmental Services and Patrick Michaels, Senior Fellow in Environmental Studies at the Cato Institute and a Research Professor of Environmental Sciences at the University of Virginia.

*NOTE: Cameron Wake will be one of over forty scientists and economists mostly from the Northeast region who will be coming together next week at a two day conference in Connecticut, hosted by the Union of Concerned Scientists, to share preliminary results with each other of new climate change research. The findings will be released to the public later this Fall.*
