It would make about as much sense as hiring Harris to teach an intro course on climate change.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-51691169406014729912012-02-29T13:17:57.439-08:002012-02-29T13:17:57.439-08:00Hi, BY.

In a previous life Mr. Harris used his engineering expertise not in climate science but on behalf of Philip Morris through the firm APCO. That was, of course, the denialist campaign to sow doubt about the link between cigarettes and lung cancer.<br /><br />That Carleton didn't check this guy out, realize that he wasn't qualified to teach even a 100-class in climate change and verify his background with APCO does speak volumes for Carleton.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-26249371634474554352012-02-29T12:49:54.546-08:002012-02-29T12:49:54.546-08:00How embarrassing for Carlton University after spen...How embarrassing for Carlton University after spending decades to improve their reputation.
