Comments on: Open Position: Climate Wiki Intern https://gregladen.com/blog/2012/03/07/open-position-climate-wiki-int/ Thu, 07 Dec 2017 01:15:02 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.6 By: Martin https://gregladen.com/blog/2012/03/07/open-position-climate-wiki-int/#comment-491792 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 16:19:20 +0000 http://scienceblogs.com/gregladen/2012/03/07/open-position-climate-wiki-int/#comment-491792 It’s by the Heartland institute though, who are just a little skeptical about catastrophic man-made climate change.

Which probably explains why it’s an intern job. Pro-AGW organisations get funding!

What are your thoughts on climate change?

Do you believe the science is settled when it comes to anthropogenic global warming?

Do you think as a society we need to stop using oil and coal?

For my money, unless your answers are a close variation of “It doesn’t exist”, “No”, and “No”, you won’t stand a chance of getting hired.

They are looking for someone who believes what they want them to believe.

Since there’s no pay (“intern” = no pay), it will take a true believer to get the position filled. Who works for no pay? True believers.
