Environment and Climate News Podcast

Dr. Matthew Wielicki has had a heck of a year, voluntarily leaving academia when he found the pursuit and promotion of knowledge was being subverted by an effort to enforce consensus on researchers. Nowhere is this more evident than in the field of climate change. He now refers to himself as "earth science professor in exile." Recently he has written about why "global average temperature," is a poor metric for climate change, and how poorly conducted, alarming climate research is being heralded by the media, and not being called out by scientists -- all in an effort to motivate climate action which will rob our children of their money, freedom, and mental health.
