The Calgary-based industry front group Friends of Science (FOS), moribund since a Globe and Mail story revealed last year that FOS funding came largely from the oil and gas industry, has resurfaced promoting an โ€œannual luncheon โ€ at which Carleton Professor Tim Patterson will offer a lecture entitled โ€œThe Sun as the Primary Driver of Climateย Change?โ€

If any DSBlog readers attend, please ask Dr. Patterson why all his solar forcing graphs end in 1980. (See next post for the answer.)
