An Economist's Conference on Global Warming

There is going to be a fascinating conference in November, and I hope all interested parties will attend. It will take place in the gorgeous Berkshires of Western Massachusetts on November 2 and 3, 2007.

Please see the flyer, and information about AIER past conferences.

Here are some names to whet your appetite:

Richard S. Lindzen
David Henderson
Ross McKitrick
David S. Chapman
Richard Stroup
Carl Wunsch
Claudia Rosett
Gordon E. Michaels
William R. Cotton
William M. Gray
James Mills
Robert O. Mendelsohn
Gilbert Metcalf
Peter J. Wilcoxen
Kenneth Green
E. Calvin Beisner
Robert H. Nelson
Edward J. Kane

Some of the questions they will address:

Is it happening? Is mankind the principal cause? If so, what can be done about it within reasonable allocations of scarce public resources? Do the proposed solutions make sense from scientific and economic perspectives?
