The New York Times reports this afternoon that Stanford climatologist Stephen Schneider died today of an apparent heart attack. He was 65.
Schneider was an active voice on global warming beginning in the 1980s and he worked diligently on the issue right up to his death. He was generous with his time in explaining the science to journalists. Back in 1989, before global warming became politically controversial, I phoned him out of the blue while researching my very first magazine feature on climate change, and he was graciously helpful.
His website Mediarology is worth a posthumous read.
