There sure are a lot of names I recognise in that list - Lockwood and Bob Watson are certified alarmists for sure. If I recall correctly, Slingo is one too. Andrew Watson was involved in the Royal Society geoengineering report, so it's fairly clear which side of the fence he's on. Interesting also to see someone from the insurance industry on the list. This is a theme that Climate Resistance has picked up on from time to time - insurers are able to put their rates up in expectation of increased losses from global warming.
