Guy Stewart Callendar (/ ˈ k æ l ə n d ər /; 9 February 1898 – 3 October 1964) was an English steam engineer and inventor. [1] His main contribution to human knowledge was developing the theory that linked rising carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere to global temperature.

A calendar effect (or calendar anomaly) is the difference in behavior of a system that is related to the calendar such as the day of the week, time of the month, time of the year, time within the U.S. presidential cycle, or decade within the century.

Jan 23, 2018 · Eighty years ago, Guy Callendar built the first climate change model to predict the effects of greenhouse gases. Now his successors are plotting ways to reengineer the air.

Guy Stewart Callendar (1898–1964) is noted for identifying, in 1938, the link between the artificial production of carbon dioxide and global warming. Today this is called the “Callendar Effect.” He was one of Britain’s leading steam and combustion engineers, a …
