Could someone explain what is her overall position on global climate change is? Of the various positions I have seen advocated by skeptics, is it:<p>We can be certain the climate is not getting warmer.<p>The climate might or might not be getting warmer.<p>The climate is getting warmer, but it definitely has some other cause than human action.<p>The climate is getting warmer, and it might or might not be due to human actions.<p>The climate is getting warmer, and it is due at least to a considerable extent to human actions, but this will be on the whole good for the human race.<p>The climate is getting warmer, but it will have no overall impact on human well-being.<p>The climate is getting warmer, and it will be harmful, but it ought to be dealt with by free enterprise with little or no government action.<p>Or several other positions I have not mentioned.<p>Also, what does she think of those who hold one of the positions above that she does not hold--does she think they are irrational and ill-informed?

Extremely interesting, and - I believe - extending to the whole academic world, not only climatology.
