Murry L. Salby is a climate scientist and former chair of climate at Macquarie University, where he worked from 2008 until he was fired in 2013. He is known for claiming that levels of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere are increasing as a result of rising global temperatures, rather than due to human activity like burning of fossil fuels.
Education and career
Salby received his PhD from Georgia Tech in 1978. He formerly worked at the University of Colorado Boulder prior to being hired by Macquarie University. In 2011, Salby published research showing that ozone levels over Antarctica had begun to recover since the Montreal Protocol banned the use of ozone-depleting substances. After Macquarie fired him in 2013, he claimed that this had occurred due to his skepticism of man-made global warming, with similar claims made by reporter Andrew Bolt in the Herald Sun. Macquarie University denied these claims in a statement about terminating his employment noting he was not let go for his beliefs but "because he did not fulfil his academic obligations, including the obligation to teach," and "breaches of University policies in relation to travel and use of University resources."<ref name=MQ>
