Siegfried Fred Singer (September 27,
1924 – April 6, 2020) was an Austrian-born American physicist and
emeritus professor of environmental science at the University of Virginia, trained as an atmospheric physicist. He
was known for rejecting the scientific consensus on several issues:
·
climate change,
refrigerants, and
He is the author or editor of several
books including Global Effects of Environmental Pollution (1970), The
Ocean in Human Affairs (1989), Global Climate Change (1989), The
Greenhouse Debate Continued (1992), and Hot Talk, Cold Science (1997).
He also co-authored Unstoppable
Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years (2007) with Dennis Avery, and Climate Change Reconsidered (2009)
with Craig Idso. Singer had a varied career, serving in
the armed forces, government, and academia. He designed mines for the U.S. Navy during
World War II, before obtaining his Ph.D. in physics from Princeton University in
1948 and working as a scientific liaison officer in the U.S. Embassy
in London. He became a leading figure in early space
research, was involved in the development of earth observation
satellites, and in 1962 established the National Weather Bureau's
Satellite Service Center. He was the founding dean of the University of Miami School
of Environmental and Planetary Sciences in 1964, and held several government
positions, including deputy assistant administrator for the Environmental Protection
Agency, and chief scientist for the Department
of Transportation. He held a professorship with the University of
Virginia from 1971 until 1994, and with George Mason University until
2000.
In 1990 Singer founded the Science
& Environmental Policy Project, and in 2006 was named by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation as one of a minority of
scientists said to be creating a stand-off on a consensus on climate change Singer
argued, contrary to the scientific
consensus on climate change, that there is no evidence that global
warming is attributable to human-caused increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide, and that humanity would benefit if
temperatures do rise. He was an opponent of the Kyoto Protocol, and has claimed that climate models are
neither based on reality nor evidence. Singer was accused of rejecting
peer-reviewed and independently confirmed scientific evidence in his claims
concerning public health and environmental issues.
