We should mention his activities as Secretary of Energy. Here's a link:

• Mr. Schlesinger, the first secretary of energy, launched the Department of Energy's Carbon Dioxide Effects and Assessment Program shortly after the creation of that department in 1977.

He accuses the UN's climate change panel (IPCC) of bias:

• the IPCC was created to support a specific political goal. It is directed to support the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change.

re: scientific consensus he wrote:

science is not a matter of consensus, as the histories of Galileo, Copernicus, Pasteur, Einstein and others will attest. Science depends not on speculation but on conclusions verified through experiment. Verification is more than computer simulations -- whose conclusions mirror the assumptions built in the model.
