"Science magazine is reporting, "Strong indications are that President-elect Barack Obama has picked physicist John Holdren to be the president's science adviser."
I have known Holdren for over a decade and have discussed energy/climate issues with him many times. He probably has more combined expertise on both climate science and clean energy technology than any other person who could plausibly have been named science adviser. You can see a video of an excellent talk he gave here (along with talks by Chu and me). For a more recent BBC interview, see "The Climate Quote of the Week...."
