Life Imitates Art: Climate-Change Edition

In a previous post I wrote about one of the silliest letters ever signed by a group of very smart people. At the end of my comment, I wrote:

If a letter from 100 United States Senators was full of spelling and grammar errors, would you trust it?

The letter was written by Peter Gleick, a MacArthur Prize winner. In a follow-up essay in the Huffington Post, he twice called ice floes “ice flows” (“there really are polar bears on ice flows”). Who says life doesn’t imitate art?

  1. You’re just trying to divert public attention once again from the facts of climate change, and grasping at spelling-error straws to muddy the waters and confuse the public!!!

    Admit it, Seth, you are part of the evil climate change denial machine.

  2. I see they’ve fixed the spelling, perhaps thanks to you. No editorial note records the correction. Another item for your Orwell file.
