This Well Known Effect Breaks the Climate Narrative

The irony of YouTube having a UN caption fact-checking this guy is hilarious.

Really impressed how Jordan wrote down his question for later instead of interrupting. Take notes other debaters and listeners.

"I prefer questions I cannot answer to answers I cannot question." - Dr. Phil What I have always found interesting as a guy who's been here a while; they took a cycle and started with readings at its lowest point and charted the normal upward temps trend of the cycle to scare us about global warming. The fun part and kicker is that these same people used the first part of that same cycle, as the temps were declining, to tell us we were starting a new ice age. When I was a child I was told a European folklore story about Chicken Little (also called Henny Penny in Europe) who thought the sky was falling. As a child I thought that was just a fairy tale, a fabrication, and yet here we are.

It’s funny his stating to pepper it with errors. It’s true, that works. I was a graphic artist in the Marine Corps. We created computer aided slides for military and governmental agencies’ presentations and schools. Whenever we did illustrations, however, we learned, no matter what, they would make changes. The changes often required a total redo. So, we built in distracting elements that could be easily deleted. For example, we’d give a person in the drawing, hairy hands. The jobs requester would say I love it, but can we get rid of the hairy hands (or whatever the intentionally distracting element was). It worked like a charm.

I saw Richard speak at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. He was measured, thoughtful, extremely rational, and realistic about what he, and we, know and understand about climate and what we do not. By contrast, many of those in the audience were students in the climate policy program at IIT. They were shrill, accusatory, dismissive and completely closed minded. I realized then that these young people have committed their lives and their parent's treasure to a very specific view of reality - and ANYTHING or anyone that questioned the veracity of that view was an enemy and a threat to them. This is not science.

I'm an engineer and definitely understand the Coriolis effect and vector math, etc. I think if you really want to simplify it down to the average person, you just need to say "The climate is more complex than they're making it out to be and Earth isn't magically going to turn into Venus."

I asked in a poll on one of channels what the percentage of CO2 was in the earths atmosphere and by a landslide people thought it was 4%. If the percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere was 4%, we’d be in dire straits right now. Not many people, probably 3% or so got the right answer of 0.04% CO2. Trouble is not many people have the wherewithal to find out for themselves and follow like sheep. Let’s not forget that in the 70’s we were all going have frozen to death under miles ice by around this time in the 2020’s.

I think he actually said "If you tell a big enough lie, long enough the PEOPLE will take it as the truth". It will not BE truth, but the people who want to believe something will accept a big lie more easily than a small one.

I appreciate Jordan touching these taboo subjects. Rarely do you see two intellectuals talking about a complex subject where one person is honestly seeking to understand.

I think the worring thing is that the general public are "educated" on a daily basis by tv presenters and pseudo intellectuals with very simplistic and errornus understanding of the climate system. It is refreshing to hear someone speak on the subject who has a deeper knowledge of how the earths weather systems actually work.

I don't know what to believe unless I see it with my own eyes. At my old job, I had receipts from that year and the prior. The physical records indicated that the current year was exceeding the prior by around 300%, meaning that my leadership was 3x more profitable for the company than the guy they had the prior year. My CEO, who didn't like me, said in our year in review meeting that there was no change in shipping, and yet I had the paperwork indicating that this was a lie. After my exit, the CEO gave a speech at the last year in review meeting that my year was the record year for the entire company's history. You can't trust anyone when money is at stake.

I graduated from the University of Oklahoma, Norman, School of Meteorology, and I understand every word you said and you have done your homework!!! Weather changes every day. Climates stay about the same due to the earth and it rotation.

What would we do without Jordan's positive voice in the world?! So grateful for this man!

Thank you Jordan for finding a way to not interrupt when you had something to say.

The only greenhouse gas that keeps the heat from the sun, thus keeping us at a livable temp around the clock, is water vapor. CO2 is plant food. Very important plant food. The more we have, the greener the planet gets. There's a reason greenhouses add it to their growing operations. Our food system depends on it.

Thanks Dr's, well said! I prefer sensible, thoughtful people over hysterical, politically or socially driven fools.

I really enjoy listening to Dr. Lindzen. Please have him back again. Thanks to the crazy greenies we have to become educated on climate!

"Never let a good crisis go to waste" if there's money to be made. If not, create one.

Very good focus on thermodynamics as the drivers of climate with two zones, tropic and above tropic. And the 1.5 degree change comment as the difference between breakfast and lunch is priceless.

As a Mortarman from the ARMY (smart infantry) we have to use the coreolis effect because of the propulsion aspect of our mortars with such long hang-time. Even smart people are clueless when i start to explain to them what dynamics if the coreolis effect is.
