Volgende week woensdag 4 september is hij een avond lang onze gast, maar wij zochten hem alvast op,

Jaspers schreef na de bestseller De stikstoffuik het boek De klimaatoptimist. Daarin legt hij uit dat we geen reden hebben om in paniek te raken over klimaatverandering.

Voorbeeld: However, some people are so concerned about the ways to push climate change and CO₂ reduction that they are going out of their minds, according to Lindzen. “They’re showing this temperature graph. And I think they’re realizing people are saying, you know, you draw it like this (going sharply up – HS), but this is one degree. That’s not much. And they’re worried: this is not getting people worried enough. So they’re saying: well, showing them a flood, showing them a storm, that would be visually convincing,” he says. And as it happens, there are always places on Earth that suffer from extreme weather in a way that occurs only once in a hundred years. “And people don’t figure it out that a once in a hundred years event is occurring some place on Earth every month, or five places every month. You have a picture of that. You now put that on television and you can associate ‘climate change’ with something dramatic,” Lindzen says. “The fact that they had to go to that to convince people suggests it was a fake issue because they’re clearly using something that would be normally called false advertising,” he adds.

Toch benoemt niemand de olifant in de kamer: de hoge energieprijzen zijn het gevolg van de torenhoge klimaatambities van de EU. Wanneer durft de industrie dit zelf ook te benoemen?

Waarom koelt de Zuidelijke Oceaan af? Drie nieuwe wetenschappelijke verklaringen dagen klimaatmodellen uit

De oppervlaktetemperaturen in de Zuidelijke Oceaan rond Antarctica zijn al tientallen jaren aan het dalen, wat in tegenspraak is met de voorspellingen van toonaangevende klimaatmodellen. Het stelt onderzoekers wereldwijd voor een raadsel. In dit artikel beschouwt natuurkundige Ralph B. Alexander drie recente studies die opvallend verschillende verklaringen voor deze onverwachte klimaatafwijking geven.
