WSJ continues calling for delay

Former BP scientists and Department of Energy Undersecretary of Science, Steven Koonin, had an oped in the Wall Street Journal last Saturday. With the title "Climate Science Is Not Settled," you don't have to read it to know the conclusion is the same one the WSJ has pushed in response to every call for industry regulation since the 1960s: no action necessary.

What is interesting, as pointed out in a Climate Science Watch post, is the degree to which Koonin actually DOES agree about the science. For example, Koonin says there's "no hoax" and has "little doubt" that humans are influencing the climate.

While this is certainly a terrible piece (taken  apart by Dana Nuccitelli here and by Joe Romm here), it is notable that the WSJ published someone who conceded on much of the science.
