It has been called to my attention that I am listed in a report by the Heartland Institute as a member of a task force of theirs and contributor to a new report. This is false in both instances.
I have never had a relationship with The Heartland Institute and never will. Heartland has once before falsely listed me on their website as a collaborator. They took it down when requested.
I have emailed Heartland Institute to demand that they remove my name from the report and also apologize for the false claim.
In parallel, climate scientist Michael E. Mann is using his platform to spread the misinformation. I have emailed Prof. Mann to ask that he stop spreading the false information. Fifteen minutes after receiving my email Mann again Tweeted the false information, and as of this writing has repeated the false information in four subsequent Tweets.
This is incredibly unethical behavior by Heartland and Mann. I am requesting that both stop and act positively to correct the factual record. Twitter spreads misinformation quickly. Do the right thing.
