" (...) After a year and a half of postdoctoral research at NASA, Schneider moved to the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR, Boulder, CO) in 1972, remaining a member of the scientific staff until 1996. At NCAR, he co-founded the agency's Climate Project and in 1975 founded the interdisciplinary journal Climatic Change, for which he continues to be the editor. (...) Much of Schneider's time is taken up by what he calls his 'pro bono day job' for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

1977: In Search Of... The Coming Ice Age Minute: 19 Second: 50 till Minute: 20 Second: 35
"If an ice age is coming: what can we do to stop it? Nuclear energy might be used to loosen polar ice caps. Sea ice could be melted by covering it with black soot to increase the absorption of sun light. Dr. Stephen Schneider is a climatologist from the National Center for Atmospheric research: 'Can we do these things? Yes. But will they make things better? I am not sure. We can't predict with any certainty what's happening to our climatic future. How we come along and intervene at that ignorance you can melt the ice caps? What would that do to the coastal cities? The Cure could be worse than the disease? Would that be better or worsen the risk give an ice age?' "
