If you feel as I do about this outrageous use of public funding, feel free to use my letter as a template for your own protest.

TO: Professor Paul Johnson,Vice-Chancellor, University of Western Australia

Dear Professor Johnson
I understand that the University of Western Australia has accepted major funding to set up a “consensus centre” headed by the well-known, and scientifically disreputable, Bjorn Lomborg (http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/apr/17/abbott-government-gives-4m-to-help-climate-sceptic-set-up-australian-centre), whose idea of consensus does not appear to include accepting the work and predictions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (http://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar5/wg2/).
If this is indeed the case, I am writing to ask that you rescind this decision, which does not reflect well on your university or on Australian academic standards,

Yours sincerely

Len Fisher

Dr Len Fisher, FRSN, FRSC, FRACI, C.Chem., FInstP, FLS
