Me, on the interwebs
This Tuesday (Feb. 10, 2009) I’ll be doing an online chat over on Eric Berger’s SciGuy website. We’ll be talking about climate, climate change, and everything else climate related. It will be at 12:45 pm CST. If you can’t make it, the transcript will be posted (I’ll put a link to it in the comments).
Andrew Dessler is an associate professor in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at Texas A&M University; his research focuses on the physics of climate change, climate feedbacks in particular.

"At this point, given the economy, I have a hard time seeing legislators put more stringent codes upon builders."
Which may be so, but it does not make much sense. Higher energy code costs would just mean people would build smaller houses to stay on budget. A win win situation.
