When Dr. Matthew Wielicki refused to stay silent about climate change and earth science, he became a professor-in-exile. Even though members of the scientific community routinely discuss the negative effects of irrational fear in private, they dare not speak out lest they lose their positions and research funds. Dr. Wielicki shares his story and encourages the next generation to reject the doomsday narrative and maintain hope for the future.
“Truth and the exchange of ideas”
This man has effectively confirmed what most of us know to be fact, that the manipulation of science has removed any concept of truth. To suggest that we ought to trust ‘the science’ is like asking us to trust a politician, our doctors or the MSM.
I admire his courage to speak out and I believe that this is happening more in recent times. Integrity will be restored, but we all need to step up and make a difference.
“Integrity will be restored”
I admire your optimism.
Yes, he has both courage and integrity, sadly increasingly rare traits in academia these days.
A very similar story to that of geologist Bob Carter at James Cook University in Australia…shamefully driven out by the AGW mafia at the university.
It is perhaps apt to consider other parallels:
“Trust the ideology.”
“Trust the Party.”
“Trust the movement.”
“Trust the plan.”
“Trust the guy with the PhD.”
“Trust the one who makes the most noise because they understand what is at risk.” (Usually the Party.)
“Trust the ideology” As opposed to scientifically proven methodology?
“Trust the Party.” The Uniparty?
“Trust the movement.” Which movement? Greta’s movement?
“Trust the plan.” The secret plan?
“Trust the guy with the PhD.” Even though his PhD is from a different field to the policies
being formed?
“Trust the one who makes the most noise because they understand what is at risk.”
But what about the people whose noise has been silenced Or censored? (Likel the speakers of truth.)
How many other professors who’ve spoken out have been in exile or are walking on egg shells?
Essentially these are whistleblowers and they deserve protection.
Isn’t it about time they united somehow.
They deserve support.
We are out there Sommer. Grass roots movements all around the world are seeking the truth. Government bodies think we are too stupid to see through their BS. Common sense and more than thirty years of failed promises of climate catastrophe has finally seen the penny drop for many people. But some are going the extra mile and seeking out the scientists who speak evidenced based truth. We are sharing the information that they have made available to us, we share their truth widely and with confidence.
We have the numbers Sommer, but we need more people to speak up. Ordinary people can make a difference by being proactive in writing to their political representatives, putting in submissions against adverse bills being put forward or local proposed renewables developments. Of course it isn’t always easy to find this information. We have a bill for Digital ID being put forward at the end of this month and submissions close on the 19th Jan, few people would even know that this is happening. Maybe I should suggest that as a storyline?
Anthony S. Fauci, [The same person that created the AIDS Fiasco], along with the Liberal Progressives and Main Stream Media controlled the entire LIBERAL Covid response – Lockdowns, Masks, useless shots, demeaning medicines. COVID control followed the exact same program as AGW [Climate Change] Control [Which was modeled on the DDT Control program.] And it is obvious we will end up with the same resulting failures. — Elites will make Billions Peons, Serfs, Drones, Soldiers, Slaves will go deeper into poverty/debt. and the Elites will be enriched even more.
I am across the state of the world as you described and that we are the toys of billionaires. But I don’t have to sit around and allow it to happen without making as much noise as I can. And I know that I am not alone in resisting their criminal arrogance.
Dr Wielicki’s story is similar to the Peter Ridd story from a few years ago.
Peter was a Professor at James Cook University (JCU) and probably the world’s leading authority on the Great Barrier Reef.
A fellow Professor at JCU cherrypicked a photo of some mudflats close to a site with live coral that had been photographed in the late 19th century. These two photos, the fake one and the 19th century one, were prominently promoted in newspapers all around the world as back-up to headlines about how the reef was dying. You all know the story.
Professor Ridd visited the actual site and proved that the photo was not representative and essentially a fake. He took his evidence to the Guardian newspaper who immediately informed the Administration at JCU.
JCU then instigated an investigation into Professor Ridd for bringing the JCU into disrepute. Unfortunately, Peter’s employment contract stated that he was not allowed to tell anyone, including his wife, that he was being investigated, whatever the reason.
Professor Ridd was outraged that he was being investigated for telling the truth and told people about this investigation. JCU then sacked him for breeching his employment contract.
The latest AIMS survey shows coral cover is equal to or higher than it has been since surveys were first carried out in 1986. Not surprising since corals are part of a tropical ecosystem. They grow nearly twice as quickly in the tropical waters off New Guinea and Indonesia as they do on the GBR.
Essentially, they are happier in warmer water.
In a nutshell, Professor Ridd was investigated for telling the truth then sacked for telling people he was being investigated.
That sounds very much like how British Subpostmasters were treated in the Horizon Scandal
Just watching it right now and, yes, exactly what I was thinking. A lot of similarities.
Yes yes yes and very lovely but:
The corals of New Guinea and Indonesia are so much closer to the ‘Ring of Fire‘ or more especially, recent volcanism than are the corals of the GBR
Therefore the corals of New Guinea and Indonesia are in much more fertile and nutrient-rich silt, soils, water, run-off etc than are the corals of the GBR.
The GBR corals are dependant on their trace-element and essential nutrients from run-off of Australia and are up against a double starvation whammy.
a/ There’s not much run-off from eastern Australia because is a desert
b/ The soils of Australia are very ancient and highly eroded, there would be next-to-nothing in the waters flowing off Australia
It is quite amazing they do as well as they do BUT, is there a large ocean current coming at them from the ‘Ring of Fire’?
This of course is The Humongous Blunder that Father & Son Idso are making with their never ending and extravagant claims about carbon Dioxide Fertilation.
CO₂ is not causing what they see and record, it is the quality of the dirt – and so it is with the corals.
Temperature is beside the point for the corals (and most plants on Earth ##) – but such is the power of intrinsic human obedience, political correctness and magical thinking
Everyone is affected. Everyone.
## The ‘temperature factor‘ involved in plant growth is NOT the plants themselves responding to temp.
The plants are responding to the supply of micro (and macro) nutrients coming from the soil and it is the activity of Soil Bacteria which determine that.
Soil bacteria, as we all know about bacteria everywhere else, are immensely sensitive to temperature – such as when they go dormant almost entirely below 5°C and is why fridges everywhere work at the temp they do.
a/ Australia east of the mountains is no more a desert than The Debatable Lands that you know well.
Yes, Oldseadog,
Peta, fact check please.
There is a high agricultural output from the many farms to the East of the Great Divide. I worked for the big plant Austral Pacific Fertilizers built in 1970 making urea for sugar cane farms.
Also, Peter Ridd published studies showing that little of the soil runoff reached the Reef, esp the main Outer Reef, so was unlikely to be a factor affecting the Reef.
Finally, Bill Johnston of Bomwatch found that sea surface temperatures from a detailed scientific study in 1861 were no different from those of today.
Geoff S
“Bill Johnston of Bomwatch found that sea surface temperatures from a detailed scientific study in 1861 were no different from those of today.”
Give us a breal
How many measurements were there in 1861 and did they not use a wood bucket and mercury thermometer?
Compared with ARGO floats and drifting buoys today can NOT be used to make that temperatures are the same claim UNLESS it is backed by knowledge of the temperature differences caused by different measurement tools in different centuries. Do you think sailors with buckets dipped their buckets t exactly the same depth every time == a depth not even specified.
Claims of past temperatures, especially before WWII, assume accuracy that did not exist. Not to mention how few measurements were made in the 1800s.
No scientists should pretend very rough data from the 1800s are accurate enough for comparison with 2023 data. And that should nt require a non-scientist to tell them. Yet another Piled High and Deep claim about historical temperatures.
It is still quite cold by geological standards. The Earth is still in a 2+ million-year ice age named the Quaternary Glaciation, in a still cold interglacial period that alternates with very cold glacial periods. Over 20% of the land is covered by ice, either as permafrost or underneath glaciers. The ice age will end when no natural ice is on
Earth.
Yes, this is a truth that needs to be told widely.
Also the fact that we live in a very unusual period of the Earth’s history…we have ice at both of the poles; a very rare happening on a geological scale.
The rope length along with the knots on the rope is a constant and think back to where the term “Knots” came from well before electronic thermometers. And with 20 plus years calibrating instrumentation used in nuclear Power Plants, many of which were calibrated to a mercury thermometer in a room with Controlled and recorded Temperature, Elevation, Atmospheric pressure, Humidity, etc.
Strangely, the instruments used to measure ocean temperature have NO, ZERO, design requirements for operating and/or calibration specifications of these devices to be within specific Temperature, Elevation, Atmospheric pressure, Humidity, etc. accuracy/error curve associated with each parameter. None of the devices I have seen used for measuring Ocean Temperature would be approved for use at a NPP. How do you know exactly how deep they are, What the temperature inside the Probe, Buoy is? What is the accuracy at that depth? And you are willing to accept these POS devices to waste multi-Trillions on the mythical “Climate Change” SCAM. yet not a dime on zero deaths at US NPPs for over 60 years.
P.S. If the instrumentation used for a NPP or Commercial Aircraft used the same design specifications requirements and calibration standards/requirement as ARGO floats and drifting buoys there would be no air travel of NPPs.
“CO₂ is not causing what they see and record, it is the quality of the dirt”
If this statement is claiming that CO2 does not improve plant growth, then it is wrong. I have read at least 200 CO2 enrichment plant growth studies from 1997 to 2023. They consistently show 10% to 100% increased biomass for C3 plants (about 85% of all plant species) with CO2 enrichment to the 600 to 800ppm range.
The plants are grown in labs the same dist and receive the same amount of water. All variables are held constant except CO2.
Greenhouse owners typical use 1000 to 1500ppm CO2 enrichment, paid for with their own money. And they know more about growing plants than scientists do!
If you are actually claiming that CO2 does not boost plant growth (and increase water use efficiency), and he Idso scientists are fools (along with every other scientist doing many thousands of studies), but dirt differences are the magic wand for plant growth, then you are a complete fool, and you need to be told that. We conservatives have to be careful to avoid junk science claims. That is what leftists do.
Two-thirds of Republicans under the age of 30 agree with the climate change agenda, and 61% of adult Americans agree with it.
https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/08/09/what-the-data-says-about-americans-views-of-climate-change/
The product of Propaganda.
“ We conservatives have to be careful to avoid junk science claims.”
Yet regularly, you don’t !!
Claims you make about some things, are too often based on ignorance.
Too true Bob, but the more of us that get out of our comfort zone and tell the world how it really is about climate- that the empirical science doesn’t support the disaster narrative, this will force the science orthodoxy to defend itself and a serious public discussion can start.
I may be optimistic about this, but the evidence of the public harm, such as reduced power options, inflation from net zero policies and the environmental damage renewables cause, is causing the public to mistrust government policies and question the whole climate fear rationale.
This has gained pace in 2023 and the clear policy divide between the developed and developing nations at COP28 showed to the world that the UN policies are not going to work effectively as 2/3rds of the world’s economy have rejected any fossil fueled industrialization restraint. So, the US, EU, UK, Australia and Canada are on their own for climate mitigation – thus it’s a fail for the UN and a win for common sense and rational science.
According to NOAA the Grand Solar Minimum, which started in 2020, will start getting serious next year.
The Sunspot Number, which reflects solar output, should start to drop and continue to drop until it reaches zero in 2040 when their forecast ends.
The cold weather should wake them up

So how do we stop this in 2023, does every skeptic need to join in a class action suit against Google and Facebook for only publishing misinformation on these topics.
I made a bet with myself about this guy, based on his family name
I knew it was a safe bet and I only got as far as 32 seconds into the video for it to pay out handsomely.
He is from Poland
Why is that important: (this is NOT any sort of racist rant) Take anyone of a vegetarian or vegan disposition into any Polish food-store, supermarket or delicatessen and within moments, let alone their heads, almost every part of that person will have ‘exploded’
Because the pair of you will have been confronted by a wall-to-wall display of Saturated Animal Fat
Our man here was brought up on that stuff, continues to eat it (not enough nowadays sadly, he’s growing obese) and has perfectly no qualms about doing so.
Being brought up (to age = 13) eating fat makes you tall, slim, empathic and intelligent.
Continuing to do so makes you healthy, wealthy, wise and most esp, possessed of a GSOH
i.e. A clear, quick and agile mind plus excellent memory – oddly enough what ALL human females look for when they have inclination to ‘make a baby‘
Eating carbs and sugar completely destroys ALL those qualities – even before that sugar is being washed down with alcohol.
Sugar kills babies before they’re even been conceived.
Then it trashes science, politics & education and as a result, entire civilisations.
Every Single Time it has ever been tried.
Its cultivation doesn’t do the weather any power of good either
Why oh why do people use undefined acronyms? After a fairly long search it turns out that GSOH stands for Good Sense of Humor. It’s common in people seeking people ads on line and in print. I’m not in that market, and I’m guessing that Peta is.
Peta,
meet Uini Atonio, a professional French Rugby Union player typical of a modern front three (two props and a hooker) forward in the game.
He’s ‘fat’ by any standards, but he’s not ‘obese’ which is the supposed clinical term adopted by vegans and their nutty, sandal wearing acolytes to describe people who don’t conform to their emaciated standards.
He plays Rugby to international standards and for most of an 80 minute Rugby match he tackles players of a similar size, probably twelve times a match, bringing them to the ground, whereupon he immediately stands up (where possible) and sprints to the next tackle opportunity.
He also sprints to one Ruck, Maul or Scrum, of which there might be 50 to 100 per match, where he puts his back into it and pushes as hard as he can, putting his entire weight through his shoulders, and resisting others opposing him doing the same, to another Ruck, Maul or Scrum.
He probably eats what he want’s, including cake, but I imagine mostly protein.
How long he will live, no one knows however, we lost one of the greatest players ever to grace the Rugby pitch this week, JPR Williams who also won the 1966 British Junior title at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in Wimbledon, beating David Lloyd 6–4, 6–4. He died at age 74.
The contrast between the two players is obvious.
Some of us are fat luv, some of us are thin. The day I left school at 17 I was probably around the same weight, 13.5 stones (189lbs), as JPR Williams was when he was playing Rugby in his mid to late 30’s, and there was not a pick of fat on me.
I played Rugby in my youth and at 66 years old I’m probably around the same dimensions and weight as Uini, just not as fit or mobile, as one would expect.
My diet is full of protein, but I do eat some processed, high sugar treats, and I drink far too much beer (most Rugby players enjoy a few beers).
My Dad, another sportsman, was blessed with a well defined 6 pack into his 40’s, suffered a heart attack in his mid to late 50’s, which he survived. He died at 70 driving out the hospital he was destined to attend the following week to have a valve in his heart replaced.
So far, I have had no major health problems other than a replacement hip. Walking several thousand miles as a cop in the 70’s/80’s (no, we didn’t all sit in cars in those days) might have caused some wear.
Kindly quit bleating about ‘obesity’ and sugar. Me and many other fat people are happy as Larry. It’s our life so kindly stop damn well lecturing us at every tenuous opportunity. We do not need people like you attempting to induce a guilt trip because you have a different view of the world to us and feel compelled to pass on your pearls of wisdom.
“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”
― Mark Twain
Tyson Fury always seems overweight for a boxer but don’t tell perfect body tell Deontay Wilder that, especially after the second fight
My father lived to 98, on his own with no assisted care, eating eggs, bacon, steaks and potatoes. Still debating electric cars, and helping me fix computer problems, until the end, Go figure. Dad spent 30 years debating EVs with me but at least he had the sense to admit the batteries were not very good. He was a better batteries coming in 10 years guy, for the last 30 years of his life.
Tyson Fury is indeed a good, walking example of a healthy ‘fat’ man.
It angers me that the term ‘obese’ is used pejoratively in order to guilt trip ‘fat’ people. I’m happy to describe myself as fat, I undoubtedly carry fat, whether it’s bad for me or not is a moot point as far as I’m concerned.
The west’s narcissism with self image is driving mental health problems especially amongst our youth.
I won’t brag about being perceptibly ‘fat’ to some people, but neither will I apologise to them for anything.
I’m so ‘fat’ and ‘unhealthy’ when a guy physically attacked me in a shop a couple of years ago, I threw him around the place. Not bad for a guy of my age recovering from a hip replacement.
NB. Getting attacked in shops is a very rare event where I live. I was just unlucky. Nor would I punch him as it’s not my idea of defence, and hands are more easily broken than heads.
‘obese’ which is the supposed clinical term adopted by vegans
What do they say now that obese has been declared offensive?
Nothing wrong with fat. We all have it, some more than others. But it’s absolutely essential for health.
Strange nutritional advice
Too much fat makes people fat
That’s my advice.
Many decades ago a female friend who is Polish invited us over for a meal where EVERY dish from the cabbage soup to the cole slaw to the main dish, vegetable and desert was home made with cabbage, It was a cabbage fest. She was a great artist, and a great cook. But after the meal I almost exploded. Enough methane emissions to warm the world. The Greek wife felt the same way. Never ate Polish food again, or German food. Blah.
Humankind has been eating animal fats for hundreds of thousands of years. We are very well adapted to it.
The meats in the old cave man days were much leaner and not high fat hot dogs, salami hamburgers and steaks with marbling. Berries and fruits and nuts only when available.
There are strict metabolic limits on the amount of lean meat that humans can tolerate – about 35% of calories. Human ancestors spent a lot of effort to get the fat parts, brain and bone marrow. Ever hear of ‘rabbit starvation?’
IIRC, someone who wrote a book about living with wolves, and tried to emulate their diet, had problems. He eventually figured out that the wolves ate the rodent whole, while he removed the intestines and fat.
Especially those who live in the Arctic!
Too much fat makes people fat
That’s my advice.
Maybe refrain from giving nutritional advice. Too much FOOD without equal energy expenditure makes people fat. Fat = fat isn’t necessarily true.
“There’s still this misconception that eating fat—any kind of fat—is bad, that it will lead to heart attacks or weight gain.”
https://newsinhealth.nih.gov/special-issues/eating/skinny-fat
A diet high in fat is likely to be high in calories too. It would not be the diet that humans evolved on. Lean meats, yes. High fat meats, no.
Since humans have already evolved based on diet as you state, what makes you think they have stopped evolving when diets change?
“likely”
Depends on way too much for your generalized statement to apply.
“After 16 weeks [on a high-fat diet], fat mass decreased, lean mass (muscle) increased, and blood levels of inflammatory cytokines fell substantially. Blood pressure also lowered significantly.”
https://medschool.vanderbilt.edu/vanderbilt-medicine/study-balanced-high-fat-diet-improves-body-composition-inflammation/
“What we’ve seen in the research is that a high-fat diet can help people feel less hungry”
https://www.uchicagomedicine.org/forefront/gastrointestinal-articles/which-are-healthier-low-fat-or-full-fat-foods
Where should I put this? Okay, here is good enough.
Just for something to do, use the phrase “fat people” in a searchup of images.
Look through the first 100 and count the number you are confident are healthy.
Very good video on vegetable oils and obesity/type II diabetes. Consumption correlates MUCH better than carbohydrates with metabolic disease.

DEEP OCEAN VOLCANOS CAUSE CONTINUOUS, PERIODIC GLOBAL WARMING BY EL NINOs
https://www.windtaskforce.org/profiles/blogs/natural-forces-cause-periodic-global-warming
.
EXCERPT
.
Explanation by IPCC, Fact Checkers, etc.
.
The IPCC, etc., attributes these phenomena to global warming due to CO2 emissions.
The phenomena are broadcast in a scare-mongering manner by the lapdog mass-Media to the kept-ignorant general population, as:
.
1) Proof “Net Zero by 2050” is needed, no matter what the $trillions of costs, and
.
2) The use of evil fossil fuels should be ended ASAP, to reduce CO2 emissions, no matter what the adverse impact on standards of living of 8 billion people.
.
However, the reality is as described above, but “Fact Checkers” do not take note of observations and objective measurements being facts, especially if those facts interfere with/detract from “their established climate science”.
.
They prefer to stick to IPCC-approved subjective, computer-model, air temperature predictions, that always read much higher compared to data objectively measured by satellites, and predominately blame climate change on fossil CO2, because “the science is settled”.
.
However, they were proven completely wrong, because the volcanic eruptions are clearly linked to a trigger by the moon.
.
The Role of Judges: Even worse than “Fact Checkers” are the judges in European countries, who are largely ignorant of science.
.
They are including “their truth” in judgments and ignoring causality.
.
That is a very disturbing and destructive, far-reaching development, much more difficult to undo (after all, a judgment is forever and final) than a law in a parliament, which can be changed or cancelled.
.
Spreading disinformation by judges is not a task for judges, who avoid their responsibility through immunity.
.
This becomes extremely dangerous and makes society vulnerable to unresolved discord and instability.
.
A Simplified Calculation to Put Matters in Perspective
.
This study shows, based on UAH satellite measurements started in 1979, lower-atmosphere temperatures have been increasing, step-by-step, and are pre-dominantly due to El Niños, and their after effects.
.
The sun and moon and tectonic plate movement are driving forces of El Niños.
We must adhere to the golden rule of causality of real science: observe, measure and repeat.
.
In reality, CO2 does not play the slightest role here.
.
The IPCC climate models are based on political pseudo-science and are therefore worthless.
.
From Image 7, it can be concluded, a very strong El Niño produces a lower atmosphere temperature jump across the entire Earth of approximately 0.3 C.
.
E = K x T^4, where K = 5.670367 x 10^-8 is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant
.
Taking the derivative delivers:
dE= 4 x K x T^3 x dT = 4 x 5.670367^-8 x 288^3 x 0.3 = 1.625 W/m2
.
If the Earth were to absorb this energy flux as radiation, the Stefan-Boltzmann equation indicates, this corresponds to a radiation effect of 1.625 W/m².
Watt = Joule/second
.
That is 829 TW for the total earth surface of 510,100,000 km², or an annual energy production of 26,143 EJ (Exajoules).
.
Annual human primary energy production for all uses was estimated at about 557 EJ
For perspective,
.
1) The annual human CO2 emissions, plus some other IPCC factors, increased the temperature of the lower atmosphere by 0.5 C , in 45 years, or 0.011 C/y, as objectively measured by satellites. That value includes periodic El Niño warming effects, because they were ongoing during these 45 years!. See Image 7
.
2) An El Niño (weak to very strong) occurs, on average, every 3.6 years. See Image 1
.
3) A weak to moderate El Nino contributes significantly more warming to the lower atmosphere than 1) the annual human primary energy production and its consumption, plus 2) any atmospheric warming by associated CO2 emissions. See Image 9
.
4) A very strong El Niño contributes warming to the lower atmosphere 26143/557 = 47 times greater than the annual human primary energy production and its consumption, plus 2) any atmospheric warming by associated CO2 emissions.
.
Conclusion
.
The impact of human CO2 emissions from annual primary energy on Earth’s temperature is extremely small.
.
It compares to just one of the many active volcanic, submarine hot spots (weak to very strong), estimated at 5,000 in the world, of which the El Niño heat source often is a strong one. See Image 1
.
It is completely self-destructive for the Western world to impose restrictions on CO2 emissions that have only a small, not even marginal impact, on world atmospheric temperatures, as accurately measured by satellites
.
The human primary energy CO2 emissions are completely insignificant compared to the external thermal influences to which the earth is subjected.
.
All politicians and activists have been warned: the earth, moon, sun and celestial bodies will never listen to capricious rules and legislation imposed by them on the earth’s inhabitants.
If I understand correctly, El Niño and La Niña affect global redistribution of heat, particularly between polar and tropical regions, and also between landmass and oceans, effecting fluctuations of air temperatures on top of a trend, positive or negative it may be, but themselves are not a cause of a trend.
You will have to change your mind
El Niño gets its energy from volcanic eruptions in the 9000 meter deep trench near the Solomon Islands, etc. About two years later, there are significant weather events, due to that El Niño. Read the article
That additional energy upsets traditional weather over the entire world, if the El Niño is very strong.
The UAH graph shows a plateau with no increase in temperature, then a strong El Niño occurs, then another plateau at a higher temperature, etc. Look at the dotted lines on the OBJECTIVE graph, based on unbiased satellite data.
UAH shows absolutely no warming except from the influence of 3 strong EL Nino events. (and one minor event)
Between those events, there is either zero trend or slight cooling.
“El Niño gets its energy from volcanic eruptions”….. and the SUN.
An El Nino Volcano Nutter
Tell us, El Nino Nutter, why is it that we do not ALWAYS have global warming from El Ninos?
Tell us why the El Ninos caused global warming after 1975 but global cooling from 1940 to 1975
Tell us why Earths average temperature is believed to be slightly cooler now than the hottest periods within the Holocene Climate Optimum from 5000 to 9000 years ago. That means at least 6000 years of global cooling in spite of all those El Ninos, perhaps every 5 years for at least 5000 years.
Please explain slowly how El Ninos cause global warming in some periods, and global cooling in others
And then give us some statistics on global average underseas volcano heat release trend. If you can find any (none exist).
That is why I call you an El Nino Volcano Nutter
Who is us, is that a voice in your head?
Perhaps you should consume more fat, the voices will subside and allow original ideas from you and not the same old regurgitated peer reviewed WAG’s.
dickie is still suffering badly from CO2 lukewarmerism.
And we will call you an “ignorant denier nutter”.
Facts and data…. not a scientist are you, dickie.
Apparently, you are still dumb enough to think all El Ninos work the same.. d’oh !!!
That stems from a deep-seated lack of understanding of El Ninos and La Ninas that you won’t allow yourself to be educated about.
Great to see someone on the right track… well done Wil. 🙂
REALITY !!!!
Someone… anyone…. please…..
Cretinly NOT you.
Your grasp on reality is basically ZERO.
…. and you are absolutely determined to remain that way.
So have you found anyone who supports your reality that El Nino is the cause of the warming(apart from your new fwiend Wipost)? Donald Duck maybe, Or Donald Trump (same thing)? Anyone else. You would think with all the “wishful thinkers” here, someone would be on your team…. wouldn’t you?
Yes. And compare climate change with the DEI “movement” … hey, let’s climb on the wagon and find out what’s in it for you and me.
Dr. Wielicki did the right thing, and suffered consequences. But a transcript would be great, and I could read it in a tenth of time.
After the main photo, near the top, find 3 small images and links. Go to the middle one from last January. It will give you an idea of where this person is coming from.
Excellent discussion. He is well-spoken and seems genuinely interested in truth seeking and rational debate, things that are now almost lost in the current academic world. Personally I also found the fiasco that was CoVID and the creeping neo-Lysenkoism that was emerging in my academic facility in the last several years gave me the motivation to resign at a time when I had the luxury of being able to do so without financial or personal discomfort. The transition has been nothing but positive from my standpoint. No-one now can police my words or thoughts or inhibit my search for truths.
I retired when it was decided that pumping water uphill to release later to generate electricity was a good idea. After I retired, these same people decided that charging batteries to charge batteries was also a good idea.
