Henrik Svensmark

Henrik Svensmark is one of the key scientists responsible for advancing solar theories of global warming. Reports are that he was participating in a live debate on Danish TV when he collapsed, apparently from a heart attack.

More to follow.

UPDATE: Apparently, Svensmark has a pacemaker which kicked in when his heart rate dropped. So it probably wasn’t a heart attack at all, but an arrhythmia. He is now in hospital in a stable condition.

We send our best wishes for a speedy recovery.
