Obama administration scientist slams claims of climate ‘emergency’: Heat waves are 'no more common than they were in 1900'

 

In the op-ed, the environmental scientist explained his background and credentials, and he clarified his reason for sharing the climate assessment data.

He said it started in 2013, when he was asked by the American Physical Society to update the organization’s public stance on the changing climate. Over the next year, Koonin said he initiated a workshop to act as a “stress test” for the climate science community.

“I came away from the APS workshop not only surprised, but shaken by the realization that climate science was far less mature than I had supposed,” he wrote.

He said he discovered that “humans exert a growing, but physically small, warming influence on the climate. The results from many different climate models disagree with, or even contradict, each other and many kinds of observations. In short, the science is insufficient to make useful predictions about how the climate will change over the coming decades, much less what effect our actions will have on it.”

He's a dangerous subversive who needs Re-Education.

The conclusion of the state of climate change models was telling.  Working with several different climate change models myself, I found them to be very wanting with many wild assumptions since the actual system of global climate is so complex, trying to get a model to accurately output anything is simply too much for these folks especially when their only real goal is to get more grants.

Yeah, he's not going to be popular among the chicken little community.
