However, the link for the statement by the Geological Society of America still doesn't work, but I was able to find this page: https://www.geosociety.org/gsa/positions/positionlO.aspx I assume this is the right one.

I paste the footnote below with active links. If still possible, we'd like to plan on 4:30 pm, Monday. The Hill meetings are Tuesday and their schedules are quite full. We look forward to meet you and Al. Sincerely, Steve The conclusions in this and the preceding paragraph reflect the scientific consensus represented by, for example, the U.S. Global Change Research Program, the U.S. National Academies, and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

Al was out of the office all day and probably hasn't seen this request yet. So I think it would be best to aim for Tuesday. I can meet anytime after 10 except for 3-4. Please let us know what times could work for you and let us know who will be joining you. If you want an actual discussion, I ask that you limit your group to 5 people. The interpersonal dynamics of one or two talking with twenty just doesn't work. If you just want to deliver a letter and make a statement then the size of the group doesn't matter. Also, the letter you linked to in your message has a footnote with apparent links to statements by various societies. However, there are no active links for any of them. Please, send copies of the statements or functional links to the statements. I look forward to meeting you and your colleagues. Sincerely, 17cv1906 Sierra Club v.

Samantha asked me to reach out to you both and ask if you would please handle the meeting below? It is time sensitive as they are requesting a meeting next week. We are unable to do so on our end but would like for a meeting with them to still happen. Please let me know if you are able to get a meeting arranged. Thank you in advance and hopefully our paths cross soon! Thanks!

We would like to discuss climate science with you and offer our help to you on this issue. We have no policy ask and respect that science is but one input of many to policymaking. We also recognize that policymaking is beyond the expertise of our members. Our goal is for the you to be informed by the best available science, which we believe is provided by scientific associations. By virtue of these societies representing tens of thousands and sometime hundreds of thousands of members, we believe the scientific societies are uniquely position to present a balanced view of the science. 17cv1906 Sierra Club v. EPA - 6/22 Production ED 001523 00007831-00004 Climate Science Day (CSD) is organized by about a dozen science professional societies whose purpose is to connect scientists across a wide range of disciplines involving climate change with the Administration and Members of Congress. Besides the American Statistical Association, participating CSD organizations include the American Geophysical Union, the American Meteorological Society, the American Chemical Society, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the Crops/Agronomy/Soil Societies. 27 scientists are scheduled to be in DC for CSD and we would schedule a subset of them to meet with you if the meeting were accepted. The scientific societies' view of the changing climate is summarized in this 2016 letter to Congress signed by 31 scientific professional societies or institutions: http://www.aaas.org/sites/default/files/06282 f.
