February 26, 1988 - Australian climate scientist Graeme Pearman warns of “Dramatic Warming”
Thirty-six years ago, on this day, February 26th, 1988, four months before James Hansen gave his dramatic and pivotal testimony in Washington DC, an Australian climate scientist, Graeme Pearman, was speaking out on the same topic. https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/101979010 The amount of carbon dioxide in the air was roughly 351ppm. As of 2024 it is 422ppm, but check for daily measures.
January 19,1992 - they gambled, we lost
Thirty two years ago, on this day, January 19th, 1992, “One of the CSIRO’s top scientists says doubters of the greenhouse effect are gambling with the future of the world. Dr Graeme Pearman, coordinator of the CSIRO’s climate change research program, said yesterday there was little doubt global warming was a reality according to all the best scientific models.” Anon, 1992. Greenhouse cynics gambling with future. Canberra Times, January 20 The amount of carbon dioxide in the air was roughly 357ppm.

September 17, 1987 - report on “The Greenhouse Project” launch
Thirty six years ago, on this day, September 17, 1987, a novel effort between the CSIRO Atmospheric Physics people and the Australian government’s Commission for the Future was reported on (the launch happened on the 16th). Known as “The Greenhouse Project” The greenhouse effect is not just another disaster story but a real phenomenon that is likely to have far-reaching economic and social impacts within considerably less than a human lifetime, according to a CSIRO scientist.
Don’t rush into a hydrogen economy until we know all the risks to climate [GasTransitions]
The use of hydrogen as a fuel could make global warming worse by affecting chemical reactions in the atmosphere, write researchers Michael Prather and Graeme Pearman. They argue that more research needs to be done before we put all our cards on a hydrogen economy. Article originally published on The Conversation. [Gas Transitions Volume 1, Issue 8]
Don't rush into a hydrogen economy until we know all the risks to our climate
Alexander Kirch/Shutterstock By Graeme Pearman, University of Melbourne and Michael Prather, University of California, Irvine There is global interest in the potential for a hydrogen economy, in part driven by a concern over climate change and the need to move away from fossil fuels.
Don't rush into a hydrogen economy until we know all the risks to our climate
There is global interest in the potential for a hydrogen economy, in part driven by a concern over climate change and the need to move away from fossil fuels. This month, for example, Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO, released a report showing the use of clean hydrogen as a fuel could slash aviation emissions, including a complete transition from conventional jet fuel around 2050.
Australia needs dozens more scientists to monitor climate properly, report says
Australia is falling short in its ability to monitor the climate, potentially leaving farmers and other groups unable to access crucial information about rainfall, droughts and floods, the Australian Academy of Science has warned.
