Attempted betting on global warming
Like global warming skeptics Richard Lindzen and William M. GRAY, Michael's World Climate Report offered in late 1998 "to wager that the 10-year period beginning in January 1998 and extending through December 2007 will show a statistically significant downward trend in the monthly satellite record of global temperatures."[2] Climatologist James Annan,[3] who has offered multiple bets that global temperatures will increase,[4] learned of the offer in 2005 and contacted the Report to arrange a bet.[5] An editor from World Climate Report responded, reneging on the original bet offer and declining to make a new bet starting from the present.
