Who is Dr Richard H Moss, Ex-Chair of the Advisory Committee for the Sustained National Climate Assessment
Guest Post By Dennis Ambler:
With the kerfuffle over the disbanding of the Advisory Committee for the Sustained National Climate Assessment, set up by President Obama in 2015, we have the usual appeals to false authority and the usual claims of “denying science”. However, a closer look reveals there is not much science here: http://sncaadvisorycommittee.
“The committee’s chair, Dr. Richard H. Moss, a senior scientist at the Joint Global Change Research Institute, told the Post that disbanding the group was “short-sighted.”
“We’re going to be running huge risks here and possibly end up hurting the next generation’s economic prospects,” he warned.“
Richard Moss is a WWF implant and has been in the climate debate for many years. More here:

The UNF was founded in 1998 with $1billion from Ted Turner, its President is Timothy Wirth, who helped to launch James Hansen into global warming fame in 1988.
