1) The US Climate Action Report 2002 reflects the current state of scientific uncertainty around climate change and does not present new risks or predictions, contrary to claims in recent NYT articles.
2) While the Report acknowledges greenhouse gas increases and some human contribution to warming, it also notes considerable uncertainty around the science and role of natural variations.
3) President Bush's policies and budget increases for climate change research appropriately focus on advancing scientific understanding while reducing emissions, in line with the current limited state of knowledge.

John Holdren on Climate Change Challenge 2018 02-15Vincent Everts
In Nantucket I attended an amazing and scary presentation by John Holdren on Climate Change. John Paul Holdren was the senior advisor to President Barack Obama on science and technology issues through his roles as Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and Co-Chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST).
Holdren was previously the Teresa and John Heinz Professor of Environmental Policy at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, director of the Science, Technology, and Public Policy Program at the School's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, and Director of the Woods Hole Research Center.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

Subject: Letter to the Editor re: US Climate Action Report
Council
Attached below is a letter to the editor from James Connaughtori, Chairman of the White House
on Environmental Quality, responding to your recent coverage (Andy Revkin story and editorial, 6/3, and
today's Bob Herbert column) of the US Climate Action Report.
-- I am
Please contact me by email or phone (202.395.7419) if you have any questions about this letter
CEO's communications director. If you send me a fax number, I would be happy to also fax you a signed
about
hard copy of the letter. I would also, of course, appreciate hearing from you as soon as possible
your plans for publishing this.
Thanks
JLC NYT letter 6-6-02.do
To the Editor:
Andrew Revkin's recent article ("Climate Changing, US Says in Report") and your
accompanying editorial claim that the U.S. Climate Action Report 2002 provides "predictions
[that] present a sharp contrast to previous statements on climate change by the Administration."
The reality is quite the opposite. The Bush Administration has consistently talked about both the
seriousness of potential global climate change and the enormous complexity and uncertainty in
the current state of our scientific knowledge.
Last year, President Bush noted the natural greenhouse effect, and the rise in both surface
temperatures and atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases. He noted that "the National
Academy of Sciences indicate that the increase is due in large part to human activity." These
concerns justify a strong national policy to address the scientific and technological issues related
to climate change - which the President is implementing.
At the same time, however, the President cautioned that "we do not know how much our
climate could, or will change in the future... or even how some of our actions could impact it....".
This is precisely the uncertainty that policyrnakers face: "No one can say with any certainty what
constitutes a dangerous level of warming and therefore what level must be avoided."
Contrary to Mr. Revkin's assertions, the Report is consistent with both the Presidents
statements and the state of scientific knowledge. It notes the "considerable uncertainty" about the
science and the role of natural variations in the climate cycle, and says that its studies "recognize
2. that definitive prediction of potential outcomes is not yet feasible." The lieport does not identify
new risks, but rather provides a complete review of the numerous, often conflicting "what if'
scenarios of potential impacts of climate change, both dire and beneficial. This account makes
clear that complex computer models, of the sort used by the Clinton Administration's 2000
National Assessment, cannot make "accurate predictions of the specific changes in climate that
will occur over the next hundred years."
The Report reflects the current state of climate change science, and the President's
policies are appropriately based upon that knowledge. President Bush's climate change programs
will advance our scientific understanding while reducing emissions of greenhouse gases. The
President's FY '03 budget proposal requested over $4.5 billion - a $700 million increase - to
fund climate change-related research and to advance the development and deployment of related
energy and sequestration technologies.
Sincerely,
James L. Conniaughton
Chairman
White House Council on Envirbnmental Quality
