Photo of Ross McKitrickPresident Barack Obama spoke yesterday at the UN Climate Summit about government initiatives intended to battle climate change. But in this article from Fox News, Chip Knappenberger writes about the global warming hiatus, something economics professor Ross McKitrick says has been happening for 19 years. Kappenberger quotes McKitrick's research in this article. Read "UN Climate Summit: The dirty little secret about global warming Obama doesn't want you to know."

McKitrick also applies his climate change research to President Obama's predicted strategy to reduce greenhouse gases in this article from the Los Angeles Register. According to McKitrick, the decision to take immediate action against these emissions is being made too early. He says there is value in waiting to develop a long-term plan until new information is available that may enhance our understanding of the costs of C02 emissions.
