Since the 2010s, I have guest lectured occasionally in the physics department at Harvard Since the late 1990s, I have been keenly interested in the developing disinformation campaign often known as "climate science." I read extensively in this area. In recent years, I have taken an interest in investigating so-called "AI" software, and the planned total take-over of public discourse by the big tech companies and their co-conspirators in our current government.
Dr. Willie Soon, an astrophysicist and geoscientist, is a leading authority on the relationship between solar phenomena and global climate. In this 32+ years of singular pursuit, he seeks to understand the Sun-Earth relations in terms of not only meteorology and climate, but also in terms of orbital dynamics of Sun-Earth-other planets interactions, magmatic (volcanoes) and tectonic (earthquakes) activities. His discoveries challenge computer modelers and advocates who consistently underestimate solar influences on cloud formation, ocean currents, and wind that cause climate to change. He has faced and risen above unethical and often libelous attacks on his research and his character, becoming one of the world's most respected and influential voices for climate realism. In 2018, he founded the Center for Environmental Research and Earth Sciences (CERES-science.com) in order to tackle a wider range of issues and topics without fears nor prejudices.

He discusses survival strategies such as calorie-dense food planning, water treatment to avoid illnesses like Giardia, and emergency fixes like using body heat or hot water bottles for wet gear, drawing from past miserable experiences in harsh weather. Nelson recounts major expeditions like retracing the Lewis and Clark route by paddling upstream on the Missouri River, hiking the 2,200-mile Desert Trail, and the Minnesota Border Route Trail, along with entertaining smokejumper stories involving bizarre challenges and a world-record mosquito slap.

Considering all the facts and looking at the connection between the science, history and politics of this issue, Lynne reached the inevitable conclusion that “human-caused global warming” is one of the greatest hoaxes ever visited upon mankind.
Working with Faraday Science Institute, a nonprofit organization, she has researched the topic of global climate change for thirteen years, sorting out fact from fiction.

He decided to use his knowledge of forecasting to investigate whether predictions of dangerous manmade global warming were based on scientific forecasting methods.

Phi Beta Kappa. David McCord Prize. Since the 2010s, I have guest lectured occasionally in the physics department at Harvard Since the late 1990s, I have been keenly interested in the developing disinformation campaign often known as "climate science." I read extensively in this area. In recent years, I have taken an interest in investigating so-called "AI" software, and the planned total take-over of public discourse by the big tech companies and their co-conspirators in our current government.

PhD in Social Psychology. Reason, truth, Rostand, marksmanship, and Kate McKinnon. I stand with – and in – the rain.
The discussion between Tom and Joe Duarte centers around Joe's criticism of the widely cited statistic that 97% of scientists agree on human-caused global warming. Joe argues that the study supporting this claim was fundamentally flawed and fraudulent, relying on a methodologically unsound review of abstracts by biased, non-expert individuals. He emphasizes the widespread dissemination and acceptance of this flawed study as evidence of institutional failure in academia and the media.

I never thought I would be an activist but I guess that’s life, one door closes another door opens. For me I’d worked so many different jobs and spent so much of my life in a classroom that I just wanted to get grounded and learn about growing food. I worked on a farm and there I opened my eyes for the first time to the FrankenSkies we never knew. From the day I realized something abnormal was occurring in our skies, I was driven to do something about it. Through my devotion and passion, I’ve realized incredible traction via social media. My goal is very simple, it is unity. Truth is all embracing and our strength comes from this bond we all share. —

Correction from David: --- In the second quiz, where I ask about US gun-control laws, I did the analysis correctly but then got the conclusion wrong. My error invalidates the answer to the US gun-control question, which of course then invalidates the 2x2 comparison. Thanks to the perspicacious viewers who caught this. I believe the rest of the presentation is correct and the overall message still stands, but it's less useful to do the exercises yourself now.

Considering all the facts and looking at the connection between the science, history and politics of this issue, Lynne reached the inevitable conclusion that “human-caused global warming” is one of the greatest hoaxes ever visited upon mankind.
Working with Faraday Science Institute, a nonprofit organization, she has researched the topic of global climate change for thirteen years, sorting out fact from fiction.
