We Can Fix Climate ChangeI suffered through an 80 mins lecture by Nobel Prize winner John F Clauser so that you don’t have to. He calls climate change a “myth” and insists that climate scientists are “dishonest” and “clueless.” It’s frankly embarrassing he goes on about this, as climate scientists have told him multiple times that it’s trivially wrong. I want to put this out there so that anyone who gets questions about it has an easy way to answer them.

Video summary, based on the transcript, with some help from AI:
John F. Clauser — Nobel Prize winner in physics — gave a talk presenting his ideas on climate change. He believes that climate change is a myth and that climate scientists are ‘clueless’ and ‘dishonest’. He defines global warming as a radiation imbalance, which is incorrect according to the IPCC report. Clauser’s talk focuses on the radiation imbalance, but the uncertainty in the measurements is too large to pin down the imbalance. He also mentions a ‘missing energy problem’ in 2008-2009, but there are various speculations about where the energy went. Clauser presents a new climate hypothesis where clouds stabilize the temperature, making greenhouse gases’ effects negligible. However, his hypothesis is not well-explained and seems to be motivated by a desire to disbelieve in climate change. Clauser’s ideas have been criticized by climate scientists for being based on incorrect assumptions and calculations.
