Comments on: Ceres is Misrepresenting Our Work http://cstpr.colorado.edu/prometheus/?p=3916 Wed, 29 Jul 2009 22:36:51 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: JimK http://cstpr.colorado.edu/prometheus/?p=3916&cpage=1#comment-5487 JimK Tue, 29 Aug 2006 03:37:36 +0000 http://sciencepolicy.colorado.edu/prometheusreborn/?p=3916#comment-5487 Roger wrote "In either case, if they are so cavalier with how they report my work, how can I trust that they are accurately reporting the work of others?" This question has a simple answer...you can't. In fact, once you've found such an error in their representation of your work, it's reasonable to assume they simply report everyone's work as though it supported their position. This is something many advocacy groups fail to grasp which, in my opinion, is one of the major reasons little action is taken to either mitigate or avoid climate change.
