* Update to "Merchants of Doubt" Film Shown in our classroom Mar 16, 2016 (need to create, link PDF)
* Anthropogenic Global Warming - A Talk Given Nov 14, 2013 for the Santa Cruz Astronomy Club. It emphasizes debunking climate denial claims
* My intro PowerPoint to the film "Disruption. Climate. Change." Fall 2015.
* My PowerPoint given in a public Panel Discussion with Guy McPherson, NASA's Carol Stoker, and local personality Joe Jordan on 9/28/14.
And, updated, to separate it historically from the actual Presentation given at the panel entirely, is here: Future Climate: How Grim Really? debunking the near-term human extinction claims of Guy McPherson
