Bob Ward calls for transparency in an opinion piece in Weather magazine (not online):
Climate researchers will have to be open to scrutiny by both their allies and their critics. The guiding principle for future communications by climate researchers should be to serve the public interest, to provide citizens and their representatives with the information they need and an understanding of the options available so that they can make informed choices and decisions.
Unfortunately he doesn't tell us whether climate PR people are also going to turn over a new leaf too.
