Vincent R. Gray
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vincent R. Gray (born 1922, London) is a retired [1] New Zealand-based coal chemist[2][3], climate author, self-selected Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) expert reviewer [4] and founder of the New Zealand Climate Science Coalition. He is skeptical of anthropogenic global warming, claiming that the evidence for warming is "fatally flawed."[5] Gray has a degree (1942) and Ph.D. (1946) [1] in Physical Chemistry from Cambridge University, England[6].
Recently, Gray has called for the IPCC to be abolished, claiming it is "fundamentally corrupt" due to his conclusion that for significant parts of the work of the IPCC, the data collection and scientific methods employed are unsound and that the IPCC resists to all efforts to try to discuss or rectify these problems.[7]
Gray was featured on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation program Counterpoint in a debate entitled "Nine Lies about Global Warming"[8], and was interviewed in a featured story in the New Zealand Herald as a "prominent" climate skeptic[9].
In 2002, Gray also published a book, The Greenhouse Delusion : A Critique of "Climate Change 2001" [10].
