==Climate change==
He has taken part in a review of the 2007 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
Murty characterizes himself as a global warming skeptic. In an August 17, 2006 interview, he stated that "I started with a firm belief about global warming, until I started working on it myself...I switched to the other side in the early 1990s when Fisheries and Oceans Canada asked me to prepare a position paper and I started to look into the problem seriously.".〔 Murty has also stated that global warming is "the biggest scientific hoax being perpetrated on humanity. There is no global warming due to human anthropogenic activities."〔(Global warning? Controversy heats up in the scientific community )〕 Murty was among the sixty scientists from climate research and related disciplines who authored a 2006 open letter〔(National Post Story )〕 to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper criticizing the Kyoto Protocol and the scientific basis of anthropogenic global warming.
