Dr. Roy W. Spencer, Ph.D., Principal Research Scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and former NASA climate scientist, gives a presentation about why there is no climate emergency and joins Michelle Stirling for a question and answer session. The current claims of a “climate emergency” are shown to be gross exaggerations. Recent warming of the climate system has been modest and benign, and at the low end of the warming predicted by the computerized climate model projections used to guide changes in national energy policy. Climate model projections of human-caused climate change are based upon the assumption that climate does not change naturally, and so represent an example of circular reasoning. From sea level rise to wildfires to severe weather, there has been little to no change observed which is outside the realm of natural variation. ...more
