I’ve listened to Dr Happer for some years now but there would still be a lot of people who will be hearing this message for the first time. Keep spreading the word Dr Happer.
Good Day, Some Aussies may be interested in a brief trip down memory lane of the past 49 years to where we are today. In 1975, with no public consultation, the ALP government of Gough Whitlam signed Australia up to the United Nations-inspired Lima Declaration which required Australia to reduce its manufacturing capabilities by around 30% and to commit to importing that amount from other preferred UN Member countries. Like China, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, etc. The UN Lima Declaration also mandates that we import as much primary produce as we can consume; such as fruit, vegetables, meat, fish etc.! But, time has told us that this UN Lima agreement ‘requirements’ were more insidious than we were led to believe. Over the following 49 years since their first UN misleading agreement! The UN Lima Declaration. Successive UN- Australia Government, LABOR and LNP POLITICIANS have forgotten that they are supposed to be working for the Aussie People, not against the very citizens that make them rich! Every UN agreement these dim-witted or deliberate traitors? Politicians have made with the unelected UN! 1982 the UN Agenda 21, then 1992 the UN Rio Agreement followed 2015 the UN Agenda 2030 to strengthen of the UN Agenda 21 insidious plan! And apparently, in May 2024 LABOR/gang-green pm Albo-sleazy will agree to the WEF+EU+UN+WHO latest and most dangerous power grab the “WHO PLANNED-DEMIC TREATY” Finally in 2019 the UN and Dr Billy Goats WHO and the WEF made formal joining of global objectives to create their Global Government and Global Policing Force in each UN Member Country by 2030! The 49 years of LABOR and LNP implementing all UN plans onto the Australian people, has been disastrous! And continues to be! 49 years ago Australia was self-sufficient in all manufacturing and agriculture and one of the leaders in exporters! We exported Aussie steel! Not just our minerals for others to make the steel and then sell it back to us? Back 49 years ago, Australian families needed one Parent working while the other Parent took care of the kids and the household and they all spent the weekends together! that’s how it was in my street, and around the city of Brisbane. But! Here we are 49 years since the Government Politicians were first foolish or was it an ego-driven decision to become just one of the UN's Global puppet Governments, the “UN Duopoly Politician Puppets” have changed our “Lucky Country “that so many have fought and many died protecting our Sovereignty, into a hollow shell of a country! With half the population now reliant on jobs within Governments and Councils, both parents working in Australian families, can they even afford to have a family in the GREAT RESET future? Thanks, Gough Whitlam, you might be proud of how the LABOR/gang-greens and LNP politicians have followed your example to this day. They are now loyal to the WEF+EU+WHO and your original bosses in the UN. Gough Whitlam that’s quite the legacy! May 2024! Will Albo-sleazy secretly sign our Sovereignty over to the globalist-controlled WHO? That is the intention of their “WHO PLANNED-DEMIC TREATY” 83% of WHO Annual funding is from Black Rock Dr Billy Goats, Amazon, the Rothschild Foundation and the rest of the Globalist Monsters creating the WESTERN FUDAL SYSTEM. Will own nothing and be happy apparently?
Happer is one of the most notorious spreaders of climate denier misinformation and propaganda. He's been caught in a sting operation accepting money for writing text that he admitted would not pass academic review. Anyone who knows a little climate science can easily debunk Happer's misleading claims.
William Happer is the real deal. Hes a great scientist. Why people arent spreading "the expert in CO2 " says is a crime of knowledge. Hes the leading expert on C02.
William Happer is the former head of the CO2 Coalition, which is funded by the oil industry to promote the use of MORE fossil fuels. He isn't a climate scientist, by the way. His expertise is OPTICS. Nor has he published any scientific papers on climate change. He doesn't do that because people who actually are climate scientists would profoundly debunk him, which you can see examples of here: CLIMATE MISINFORMATION BY SOURCE: WILLIAM HAPPER. The tentacles of the fossil fuel industry's marketing departments reach far and wide, much wider than you know. Sky News itself has strong connections to the fossil fuel industry, with owner Rupert Murdoch heavily invested in the company, Genie Energy, so much so that he is considered a co-owner. It's precisely why all of Sky's talking heads reject climate change science and renewable energy.
@thebritishbookworm2649 Some of OUR Farmers in Scotland scatter CO2 capsules over the Fields to improve plant growth , as we all know CO2 FEEDS the WORLD Flora & Fauna , Trees create the air we breathe by absorbing CO2 , Cancel CO2 Earth becomes another DEAD PLANET..
"William Happer is the real deal. Hes a great scientist. Why people arent spreading "the expert in CO2 " says is a crime of knowledge. Hes the leading expert on C02." He's NOT a climate expert and repeatedly and blatantly misleads people about the topic. Among other things, he "forgets" to tell you that higher CO2 levels trigger higher levels of planet-warming water vapor and methane.
Prof Happer is THE reference point for the CO2/ Global Warming science. So highly qualified to talk on the matter. A great guest and congratulations to the IPA for bringing him to the Australian debate. Well done!
Agree 100%. Excellent analysis by scholars in their fields. Always cut through the fake "scientist's analysis " Or so called "experts in their fields "
@@swiftlytiltingplanet8481 But the planet is not warming, the concept has been rebranded from "Global Warming" to "Climate Change" (to ensure the corporates extract maximum government printed dollars} and the Barrier Reef is expanding. So I am not sure which point of view is debunked. It seems fanciful that man is now trying to control mother nature. Governments are doing everything they can but reduce their size and increase the wealth of the communities they 'serve'.
Prove it! You made the allegation. Provide the evidence. Reflect on the Tao of Mike Tyson who opined that "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the FACE!"@@volkerengels5298
At last !! William Happer on mainstream media, I’ve watched hours of you tube featuring him, there is no more authoritative voice on climate change, thank you.
In December 2015, Happer was targeted in a sting operation by an environmental activist group. Posing as consultants for a Middle Eastern oil and gas company, they asked Happer to write a report touting the benefits of rising carbon emissions. Happer asked for the fee from this work to be donated to the "objective evidence" climate-change organization CO2 Coalition, which suggested that he contact the Donors Trust to keep the source of the funds secret. Happer further acknowledged that his report would not pass peer-review with a scientific journal.
@@andrezcabara2774 fake study. you can only get 97% if you ask the question "does co2 cause warming". the usual liars then go on to say 97% think human caused warming is dangerous, but the poll results do not say that.
Real scientists will do this. When I was working on my PhD in 2004 I tried to contact another scientist about her work and wanted to use it as the foundation for mine; more research is needed was her mantra in chapter 5. She ignored me and avoided me regularly; no phone calls, no email, not letters. She only relented after a year of me chasing her. By that point she'd finally gained Tenure and finally gave me written permission for me to use her test instrument. I then went through her entire project and checked all her published data, all her math, and all her correlations. To my dismay I found numerous math errors which made her correlations wrong. I re-ran the numbers four more times and they were still wrong. Remember most committee members don't have time to read a dissertation, much less run the numbers. I talked with my committee chair and decided to ignore her work and use another pathway instead. I earned my PhD in 2006 and on my last check she is still a respected faculty member, now a full professor, in a major southern university here in the US. I'd be really dismayed by this if I hadn't ran into so much bad math and bad data interpretation from 'respected' scientists in the 20 years since. I left academia in 2012, after 6 years and created my own chemical business; I've never looked back. The true scientists we learned about as children still exist, but their work is routinely overshadowed by people with Ds behind their names, who want to grab headlines, gain tenure at all costs, and make money off bombast. 😞
His own American Physical Society, with over 50,000 physicist members, completely reject his views. Check out their 2021 public statement, in which they assert that global warming is caused "unequivocally" by human activity. Unlike Happer, they urge swift action to mitigate the damage our emissions are causing worldwide.
Happer, at 84, a brilliant nuclear physicist, who lectured on CO2 at Harvard, is a man of integrity who therefore has no fear about speaking the truth. Anyone who,wants to know more should look up The CO2 COALITION online, written only by scientists, most of whom also have PHDs.
Yes, the CO2 Coalition, long funded by the fossil fuel industry to promote the use of more gas and oil. See CLIMATE MISINFORMATION BY SOURCE: WILLIAM HAPPER, at the Skeptical Science website. Not a single scientific institution on earth agrees with his views that "more CO2 is good" or that climate change is "natural and harmless," and that includes his own American Physical Society, made up of over 50,000 physicists. Go to their 2021 public statement on global warming, which asserts that climate change is "unequivocally human-caused" and requires "swift action" to mitigate the damage our emissions are causing. Those are the same assertions you'll find in the public statements on climate change from every scientific institution on the planet, from NOAA to NASA to the World Meteorological Organization. Go look and see for yourself. Sky News is a propaganda channel for the oil industry. Why? Because Sky owner Rupert Murdoch co-owns a fossil fuel company, Genie Energy, and sits on their advisory board. Connect the dots.
"No fear speaking out the truth". What about the 97% of climate scientists that disagree with him. Are they afraid of speaking the truth? What a dumb argument. Now, let's look closer at the CO2 COALITION. From Wikipedia: "The CO2 Coalition is a successor to the George C. Marshall Institute, a think tank focusing on defense and climate issues which closed in 2015. William O'Keefe, a chief executive officer of the Marshall Institute and former CEO of the American Petroleum Institute, continued as CEO of the CO2 Coalition." You really believe the CO2 COALITION is unbiased and not influenced by the oil industry? The oil industry has deep pockets and a lot to lose.
Dr Happer's visit to Australia has been totally ignored by the mainstream media, why? No headlines in what he says? No panic or predictions of impending doom? Let's you know exactly what's going on, debate is stifled and truth is being buried.
"Dr Happer's visit to Australia has been totally ignored by the mainstream media, why?" Maybe because he's not a leading climate scientist and has spent many years misleading the public about the issue, likely backed by massive funding from oil/energy companies.
Where was debate here? Sky News Australia did not dare to have him debate with other climate scientists, did they? And why do you already know what the truth is? If you already think that, of course you ask why others don't report on the "truth". Maybe it's because your premise of "truth" is wrong? Maybe you only accept "news" and "facts" if they align to what you already determined the truth?
@@JohnWilliams-iw6oq But it's not a debate, is it? Or has any of Happer's argument been challenged here? And by whom? I don't think Sky News even wants an honest debate. They invite people they know give them the answers/opinions they want to push their viewers. Have a real debate and I'll love to watch. This was dumb.
A presentation to his Majesty the King is in order to correct his real ignorance about the push for net zero, the stupidity of the century. His first message as a King contains this embarrassing push for net zero, losing all respect, normally given to the Crown.
"No matter his credentials, the climate cult fanatics will label him a 'climate denier' " Happer is NOT a climate scientist so he doesn't have any credentials in the field, and anyone who knows climate science immediately spots how he is fooling people.
And some 21 year old kid, who was stupid enough to study Lesbian Dance Theory in college, and is now living in his parents' basement, will get hired by UA-cam to opine on what constitutes MISinformation and will label anything not in accordance with the approved narrative as false using the sophisticated algorithm provided to him by the social media and the MSM where the number of articles supporting the 'narrative' exceeds those disputing it as MISinformation. This is what you get when you let children select what they will study in college. My prescription.: Choose a STEM discipline and I will pay your tuition. Choose gender studies and you are on your own!
Patrick Moore's talks are easily de-bunked, and NO, Greenpeace itself says he is not its co-founder. Read a little more climate science and you can easily see through his claims and misinformation.
@karlwheatley1244 so he lies publicly risking his reputation.? He shows photos of him being in green peace from the beginning. Debunked what? He says carbon has been steadily going down for a long time until humans started putting it back. This I would say is common knowledge to a knowledgeable scientist. What's been debunked exactly ?
Karlwheatley you are the one that's full of it! If you don't allow rebuttal on your comments it just means your stance is so weak that you can't allow anyone to tag you with a challenge to your propaganda.
@@thaipixie Yes, he can read conspiracy nonsense and bullshit on the internet and believe it blindly. Climate scientists can't fudge data without being caught. They must prove their work with quantitative evidence and others must check their work and replicate it with follow-up studies. It's why Michael Mann's hockey stick data has been replicated by over 30 follow-up studies.
See CLIMATE MISINFORMATION BY SOURCE: WILLIAM HAPPER, at the Skeptical Science website. Not a single scientific institution on the planet agrees with Happer that more CO2 would be good for us or that today's climate change is "natural and harmless."

Happer is the former head of the CO2 Coalition, which has long been funded by the fossil fuel industry to promote the use of more gas and oil.
Yeah, because he has no scientific evidence to backup his claim, or any good arguments to pick faults in the theories by other climate scientists. "CO2 is good for plants". Yikes.
@@andrezcabara2774 Sorry but no. Look at the data. There is literally zero evidence that any of the changes we have seen since 1850 are outside natural variations. I could go further and ask; "Why, if CO2 rise causes temperature rise, this has never been seen in the record?" CO2 rise follows temperature rise and always has. What makes modern CO2 "special"? It's those who are predicting disaster who have to prove their case, not the other way around.
@@JohnJ469 I"m a layman, I don't know what data to look at. But I know that climate scientists have been debating over decades and I trust them more than fringe scientists. Oh, and this is "Sky News Australia". Google "sky news australia on climate change" and you see a pattern. I trust the majority of climate scientists more than I trust Sky News Australia.
Which isn't Happer, by any stretch of the imagination. He's part of the 0.1% of scientists who reject the consensus of thousands of scientists around the world.
@@terryo5672 Great, Terry. Are you a climate scientist? Do you work in the field of climate and publish scientific papers in the field? Because that's the criteria for being surveyed for the consensus. Scientists outside the field simply aren't qualified to give an opinion one way or another. It would be like surveying proctologists about brain surgery. Expertise and field knowledge matters. In 2021 Cornell University audited the over 88000 climate studies published from 2012-2020 and tallied a 99.9% consensus that human activity, not nature, is driving global warming. If you don't have published scientific papers like this your opinion is not going to be counted, and rightly so.

@@andrezcabara2774 true but increasing CO2 levels in the atmosphere from 0.03% to 0.0425 (current level) or even to 0.08%, is not going to suffocate human and animal life. US Submarines set the emergency level at 0.3% (3000 ppm) and astronauts set it at 0.5%. So what is the panic at 0.4%??? And as you say without oxygen all humans will die. And produces the Oxygen?? PLANTS!
"CO2 is life for all plan life on the planet'. Life for plants means life for humans!!!" Actually, we are already 20 years into an increasing"global browning trend" due to the hotter and drier conditions that more CO2 ALSO creates. Hint: For most major and minor mass extinctions in Earth's history, the main "kill mechanism" was substantial changes in global CO2 levels. If you want life to thrive, you leave the CO2 levels right where the species and ecosystems NOW on Earth are used to and adapted to CO2 levels being. For us, that would mean lowering CO2 levels back under 350.
@@HealingLifeKwikly You are incorrect. Why is CO2 pumped and trapped into greenhouses to speed up growth and improve the quantity of produce? CO2 is essential for photosynthesis, so you would slow down plant growth, food would be harder to obtain (because it all depends on plants) if the level of CO2 is reduced. Increase CO2 and plants thrive; the ceiling being 3000 ppm. It is currently 400 ppm. (av).

It's the right tactic to talk about the CO2 as a positive factor, that we need more of it, not less. Because THIS strikes right at the heart of the scam, this forces them to roll out their claims that there's a positive feedback loop ready to unleash in the atmosphere any minute now. That's actually (scientifically provable!) a false claim. The part where they talk about the gradual warming trend is true, that's why they like to talk about it all the time but this alone doesn't constitute any threat to anyone. You need to add this "runaway feedback loop" fairy tale to it if you want to threaten and frighten people. And that part is a lie. It's so obvious lie it's mindboggling. Anyone can Google "concentration of CO2 during the Cambrian era" and in 5 seconds you have irrefutable proof that raising our current CO2 levels can most definitely NOT cause any "runaway effects" whatsoever. Because that experiment has been already run on this planet. Results were negative. That's empirical test with measurable, objective results. That's how science works, you need actual test results to claim something. Not hysteria and empty slogans based on nothing.
No climate scientist is warning of a "runaway effect" that turns earth into Venus. They're warning of a 3C increase in temperature if CO2 doubles. Quite a difference. The Cambrian experienced high CO2 for two reasons: (1) Massive volcanic activity and (2) During the first half of the period THERE WERE NO LAND PLANTS TO ABSORB THE EXCESS CO2. LAND PLANTS DID NOT EXIST. Today plants cover our entire planet with the exception of the poles, and they absorb a lot of CO2. Our sun was also significantly weaker in the Cambrian. The sun of our type actually strengthens as it evolves. With a normal, slow increase in CO2 and warming, as earth experienced many times in its ancient past, animals and plants have thousands of years to adapt, migrate or evolve. But today's warming is happening TEN TIMES FASTER than in those ancient times. Many living organisms simply can't adapt this quickly. It's why 10 billion snow crabs just died off Alaska and why the shrimp fishery off the coast of Maine has completely collapsed. Our world is also home to over 8 billion human beings with trillions of dollars worth of vulnerable infrastructure. Thus it's not exactly meaningfu to compare the Cambrian to today. Everyone on the planet knows that CO2 is good for plants. What most don't realize is that the warming that accompanies rising CO2 is terrible for plants. See my answer to the "dogtutor" above your post for details of what Happer leaves out.
My car drives on composted organic material or in other words my car drives on fossil fuel.....the positive effect is more of the mutch needed CO2 for a greener world.
@@KD-cg9iq "CO2 is needed for plant food" is one of the fossil fuel industry's favorite propaganda memes. Unfortunately, the fossil fuel industry doesn't tell you the whole story. CO2 is great for plants. But only up to a point. We've passed that point. That's because the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits. Heatwaves, for example, have TRIPLED since the 1960s, according to the EPA. Heatwaves DECIMATE crops. With a few days of temperatures above 75 degrees broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, lettuce and cabbage all bolt and stop developing. Between 85-95, tomatoes and cucumbers drop their flowers, reducing yield. Blueberries become necrotic and rot. At 104 degrees all photosynthesis STOPS and many seeds won't even germinate. Think of places like Phoenix, which suffered through 31 straight days of above 110-degree temperatures this summer. If you're a subsistence farmer (and there are still over a billion in the world), you lose your crops, your sustenance and your livelihood in one fell swoop. Unfortunately the negatve effects of heat don't end there. Warming air holds more water vapor, which is why extreme precipitation events are increasing worldwide. Epic downpours are not only drowning crops but washing away topsoils and fertilizer. Increasing drought conditions are also blowing away topsoil and drying up the land, making them more prone to wildfires. Canada just suffered through the largest wildfire in its history this summer. This was after their average burn acreage had already doubled since the 1970s. Burn acreage in the western U.S. has TRIPLED. Greece just had the largest wildfire in European history. Not only do wildfires destroy trees, brush and crops, the smoke they create travels hundreds of miles, dimming the sun and reducing photosynthesis. CO2-driven warming is also melting the icecaps, raising sea levels and increasing high tide flooding; it's intensifying hurricanes, expanding the range of disease-carrying ticks and mosquitoes, and increasing marine heatwaves. Warming ocean waters are why Alaska just lost 10 billion snow crabs in the Bering Sea and why Maine's shrimp fishery has totally collapsed. It's not nearly as simple as William Happer and the oil industry would have you believe.
Al Gore never promised such a thing. He predicted increasing sea level rise, PERIOD. And he was right. Sea level has risen four inches since 1993 and its rate of rise has doubled since then, according to NASA. According to NOAA, high tide flooding along the American south and Gulf costs has risen an astonishing 400% and 1100% respectively since the year 2000. (See NOAA HIGH TIDE FLOODING) Maine is uplifting land from glacial rebound yet last month suffered a record high tide that caused over $100 million in damages. The City Dock neighbrohood of Annapolis is flooding 60 times a year now, closing streets and businesses. Miami Beach has raised 105 miles of roads. New York and Louisiana have a combined $100 billion in new flood mitigation projects in the works. This isn't in someone's imagination. It's really happening.
CO2 is plant food. Yes. But the warming that accompanies rising CO2 actually hurts crops, according to university studies, cancelling out CO2's benefits.
@@Blake-sh3nf While rising CO2 helps crops, the warming that accompanies it cancels out the benefit. Rising CO2 has TRIPLED heatwaves since the 1960s, according to the EPA. Heatwaves decimate crops, and at 104 degrees all photosynthesis STOPS. Many seeds won 't even germinate at that temperature. Think about places in the world like Phoenix, which experienced 31 straight days of temperatures above 110 degrees this summer. If you're a subsistence farmer (there are still over a billion around the world), your entire season of crops would be wiped out. Now add in the increase in extreme precipitation events, which are inundating farmlands, washing away topsoils and fertilizer and drowning crops. These are also increasing, according to the EPA. Add in wildfires. Burn acreage has doubled across Canada since the 1970s and TRIPLED in the western U.S. Now add in the final blow: increased drought, which is also increasing, according to the IPCC. Fossil fuel propaganda fools you by little lies of omission like this. Yes, CO2 is good for plants. And university studies clearly show that. But what they don't mention is the damage the warming does that accompanies that rising CO2.
@@Blake-sh3nf The "greening of the earth" story originates with a NASA satellite survey back in the 1990s. That survey found significant increases in green-up around the globe, which NASA assumed came from our extra CO2. But a follow-up survey with greater resolution and additional on-the-ground research found that the most substantial greening didn't come from CO2 but from the planting of over 100 billion new trees and intensive new farming techniques in China and India, in addition to new mass plantings in the Sahel in Africa (the Great Green Wall, to stop the spread of the Sahara Desert) and elsewhere. Climate deniers never mention NASA's second survey, only cherry-picking the original flawed findings. See HUMAN ACTIVITY IN CHINA AND INDIA DOMINATE THE GREENING OF EARTH, NASA STUDY SHOWS, Feb 11, 2019 See also EARTH STOPPED GETTING GREENER 20 YEARS AGO, Scientific American, Aug 15, 2019 CO2 has turned some parts of the earth greener, mainly in the Arctic, where no one lives, unfortunately. That makes sense, though, because there is no extreme heat there to hurt plants and they can enjoy the full benefit of CO2 enrichment without damage from higher temperatures.
ELEVEN studies confirm the scientific consensus on climate change. ELEVEN.

That was actually very interesting and entertaining. In a mad world full of alarms and claims about death and destruction, here comes a ln enlightened man with reasonable words. Thanx sir.
Those were not reasonable words. It was bullcrap. "CO2 is good for pants" as an argument why climate change isn't real and why we should not reduce carbon emissions.

It's why every one of his media outlets, including Sky, bash climate change and renewable energy at every opportunity. Convincing you that the UN should end illustrates just how destructive this fake news channel really is.
One statement or question that’s never addressed is, What’s the percentage of CO2 in our atmosphere? It’s 0.04%...... Plants, on average, cannot survive with less than 0.0125%....
Happer conveniently neglects to include in his projections the feedback effects that C02 triggers. C02-driven warming, in fact, accelerates evaporation, which fills the atmosphere with additional water vapor which, itself a greenhouse gas, then works synergistically to warm the planet more than C02 could do on its own. Methane, another powerful greenhouse gas, is also released from pent-up permafrost. Like water vapor, it works with C02 to increase warming beyond what C02 could do on its own. As time goes on, more and more of the ice sheets melt, reducing sun-reflecting albedo, and exposing more land and ocean to absorb (instead of reflect) sunlight. This is, in fact, one of the most powerful synergistic warming agents to work with C02.
So these people are basically scientifically illiterate then? Not a single scientific institution on earth agrees with Happer's view that more CO2 is good for civlization or that today's climate change is "natural and harmless." NONE. NADA. ZILCH.

So you don't see a four-inch sea level rise since 1993 an environmental problem? The rate of rise, in fact, has DOUBLED since then, according to the World Meteorological Organization. In the U.S., Houston, New York and Louisiana have a combined $100 billion in new flood mitigation projects in the works. Miami Beach has moved buildings and raised 105 miles of roads. One neighborhood in Annapolis must close its streets and businesses 60 times a year. All due to rapidly increasing tidal flooding. Heatwaves have TRIPLED since the 1960s, according to the U.S. EPA. Marine heatwaves have increased 20-fold, according to the University of Bern. A marine heatwave off Alaska just killed 10 billion snow crabs. Warming waters off Maine have completely collapsed its shrimp fishery. Hurricanes have intensified 8% per decade, according to NOAA. Canada just suffered through the largest wildfire in its history. Greece just suffered through the largest wildfire in European history. No worries? Tick-and-mosquito-borne diseases like malaria and Lyme have increased 60% worldwide as both insects have increased their range. Flesh-eating bacteria is expanding its range by 30 miles per year. Extreme precipitation events are also increasing, washing away entire towns and villages and destroying farm crops. The incidence of drought, drought intensity and drought duration have also increased. No worries?
@@briananderson7285 According to NOAA, high tide flooding along the American south and Gulf coasts has risen an astonishing 400% and 1100% respectively since the year 2000. Even New England, which is uplifting land from glacial rebound, is up 140%. The lower Breton Sound area of Louisiana has lost over 8500 acres to inundation since 1985, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. We know from proxy evidence that the last time the world experienced 400ppm of CO2, sea level rose 29 feet, according to the University of South Hampton. The only reason we haven't seen 29 feet yet is time, as ice melt greatly lags CO2 levels. Many insurance companies are jumping ship with the rising costs of coverage. People living in high risk areas like the U.S. northwest and in Florida are struggling to pay for skyrocketing premiums, are dropping coverage or have lost coverage to insurance companies fearing bankruptcy. Lyme Disease never existed in the northeast before 1985. Now it's epidemic. Nobody walks unprotected through woods and fields anymore. Ticks surving the New England winters are also killing moose calves by blood drains, with some corpses found with as many as 70,000 ticks covering them. The moose are nicknamed "ghost moose" because they've lost all their hair to the tick infestation. See WINTER TICKS WIPED OUT NEARLY 90% OF MOOSE CALVES SCIENTISTS TRACKED IN PART OF MAINE LAST YEAR.

FYI, Happer is the former head of the CO2 Coalition, which has long been funded by the families who own fossil fuel companies. Food for thought.
It's EVERYTHING about climate. Thousands of PhD-level climate scientists, tens of thousands of peer-reviewed studies, 80 academies of science and ALL of the world's major scientific institutions, from NASA to NOAA to the World Meteorological Organization, say it is. So do Exxon's own scientists in leaked memos. Happer, by contrast, is completely REJECTED by the American Physical Society, which is comprised of over 50,000 physicists with the same qualifications as Happer. Unlike Happer, they urge "swift action" against the damage we're causing with our emissions. Keep in mind that Sky News is run by Rupert Murdoch, who CO-OWNS A FOSSIL FUEL COMPANY AND SITS ON THEIR BOARD. It's why this fake news network only has on crackpot and outlying scientists, never anyone from the 99.9% consensus.

CO2 is indeed great for plants, but the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits by increasing heatwaves, extreme precipitation events, droughts, wildfires, and heat-loving insects. None are good for plants. Contrary to popular belief, farm productivity is now 21% LOWER than it would otherwise be without global warming, according to the world's leading agricultural research institution, Cornell University. High CO2 also diminishes staple crops like wheat and rice of their zinc, iron and protein content, making them less nutritious for human consumption. Most people don't know that and climate denying media outlets like Sky won't tell you that. Plants also leave behind over 40% of our CO2 emissions, allowing them to simply accumulate in the atmosphere, year after year, decade after decade. That excess CO2 can remain in circulation for centuries before finally being fluxed back into natural sinks. The same warming that hurts plants is also melting the icecaps, raising sea levels, expanding wildfire seasons, intensifying hurricanes, and increasing marine heatwaves, and tick-and-mosquito-borne diseases. Keep in mind that Sky News is run by Rupert Murdoch, the world's most notorious climate denier and co-owner of Genie Energy, a fossil fuel company.
I have a PhD in environmental science. While there are some interesting dynamics occurring in global climate patterns, there is certainly no climate crisis. Unfortunately, saying this makes me a heretic and I could lose my job if I said this out loud. As every sane and observant non-scientist can see, this is all about power, money and control.
Who has lost their job from climate contrarianism? Can you name anyone? There's lots of hyperbole about such action but no evidence it has ever happened. Sea level has risen four inches since 1993 and its rate of rise has DOUBLED, according to NASA. In January the state of Maine suffered a record high tide that caused $100 million in damages. According to NOAA, high tide flooding along the American south and Gulf coasts has risen an astonishing 400% and 1100% respectively since the year 2000. Louisiana has already lost over 8800 acres to permanent inundation in its lower Breton Sound area, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It's why that state has a new $50 billion flood mitigation project in the works. So does New York, with its borough of Queens flooding on a regular basis. Annapolis, Maryland (the City Dock neighborhood) closes streets and businesses 60 times a year due to flooding. Miami Beach has raised 105 miles of roads by two feet in order to keep back the rising tide. Odisha Sate in India reports losing no less than 16 coastal villages to high tide flooding. Sea level is going to rise by another two feet by 2100, causing much more financial catastrophe than we're seeing now. No climate crisis? In 2015 the Amazon suffered a record drought that killed an estimated 2.5 billion trees and plants and millions of animals. It was the second "once-in-a-century" drought since 2005. 8 years later it happened a third time, only worse, killing far more flora and fauna and igniting 26 million acres with out-of-control wildfires. Rain forests are normally too wet to burn. No climate crisis? According to a study in Environmental Research Letters, crop losses due to drought and heatwaves tripled over the last five decades in Europe. According to a study by Cornell University, farm productivity is 21% lower than it would otherwise by without global warming. Luckily we've been able to stay ahead of the losses with industrial-scale farming, but small scale farmers who can't afford crop insurance are suffering. Third world subsistence farmers are suffering most of all. If you're well versed on the environment, you know that photosynthesis breaks down at 104 degrees, and many seeds won't even germinate at that temperature. Think of places in the world like Phoenix, which last summer suffered through 31 straight days of temperatures above 110 degrees. You can't successfully farm in temperatures like that. Cool weather crops like cabbage, lettuce, spinach, broccoli, peas and cauliflower cease development entirely when temperatures go above 75 degrees for more than five days. Many other crops wilt and drop their flowers with extended days in the 90s. Above 100? Most crops, other than those originating in the tropics, crap out.
Αl Gore, two decades ago, created a new "profession" for some leftovers and they jumped on it. It will be very difficult to get rid of them now, but it can be done.

Absolute sea level has risen four inches since 1993 and the rate of rise has doubled since then, according to NASA and the World Meteorological Org. According to NOAA, high tide flooding along the American south and Gulf coasts has risen an astonishing 400% and 1100% respectively since the year 2000. Even New England, which is uprising land from glacial rebound, is up 140%. In response to the rising tide, New York, Louisiana and Houston already have a combined $100 billion in new flood mitigation projects in the works. And we're just getting started. Should no one in science be studying this? How about the tripling of heatwaves since the 1960s? The 20-fold increase in marine heatwaves, one of which killed an estimated 10 billion snow crabs off Alaska? How about the 8% per decade increase in hurricane intensity? The increase in extreme precipitation events and drought? How about the record wildfire in Canada this year? The record wildfire in Greece? The tripling of wildfire burn acreage in the American west over the past 20 years? Not worthy of scientific study?
@@swiftlytiltingplanet8481so its enough for you to just claim warming. you are not speaking to the cause of warming because it has been drilled into you that the only cause is human cause. also you are cherry picking your start dates with the word "since". wildfires are dramatically down if you look further back, they were multiples higher 100 years ago. seek out the real data, then you will realise that those saying things like "over the past 20 years" are only showing you data to make you think trends are increasing, that is a form of lying, you are happy to repeat the lies of these people? why? because you are afraid? because it aligns with your political agenda? same with hurricanes, look at ryan maue's work - it show there is no trend in hurricanes, even the ippcc state this. are you trying to brainwash me or trying to brainwash yourself?
@@littlefish9305 Sorry, no. You've been hoodwinked by the usual internet charlatans. The infamous wildfire graph that shows MORE fires 100 years ago includes millions of acres of INTENTIONAL BURNS. Worse, the total burn acreage was mistakenly counted MORE THAN ONCE by multiple government agencies. Today's stats don't include intentional burns and they're definiately not counted twice. The National Interagency Fire Center warns people about the gross inaccuracies in that notorious graph, but it falls on the deaf ears of internet deniers like Tony Heller, Anthony Watts (wattsupwiththat) and many others. That's where you're getting your information from, not a credible scientific source. Atlantic hurricanes have intensified 8% per decade for the last forty years, according to NOAA.

@@littlefish9305 ELEVEN separate studies confirm the scientific consensus on climate change. ELEVEN. In 2021, Cornell University surveyed the over 88000 climate studies published from 2012-2020 and tallied a 99.9% consensus that human activity, not nature, is driving climate change. Even Exxon's own scientists in leaked memos have acknowledged that combusted fossil fuels are warming the planet to a damaging degree. We know humans are warming the planet via several lines of evidence, including analysis of the ratios of carbon 12, 13 and 14 in atmospheric CO2. CO2 from combusted fossil fuels has a DIFFERENT isotopic signature than CO2 from volcanoes, the ocean or the biosphere. Because of that difference, we can calculate how much of the 140ppm of CO2 added to the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution has come from us: 100%. The Milankovitch Cycles that ushered warm and cold periods in and out in earth's past are now in COOLING phases and have nothing to do with today's warming. Earth’s axis is currently tilted 23.4 degrees (it's maximum is 24.5), or about half way between its extremes, and this angle is very slowly decreasing in a cycle that spans about 41,000 years. It was last at its maximum tilt about 10,700 years ago and will reach its minimum tilt about 9,800 years from now. As obliquity decreases, it gradually helps make our seasons milder, resulting in increasingly warmer winters, and cooler summers that gradually, over time, allow snow and ice at high latitudes to build up into large ice sheets. As ice cover increases, it reflects more of the Sun’s energy back into space, promoting even further cooling. Earth's orbital eccentricity ranges from ZERO (a perfect circular orbit) to 0.067. Today it’s 0.017. That means we're moving toward COOLING, not warming. The same is true of earth's precession or wobble. Spectroscopic analysis of the the atmosphere clearly shows heat passing through CO2 and radiating back to earth. It's emprical evidence of the greenhouse effect at work. As that greenhouse effect has increased, our troposphere has warmed and our stratosphere has COOLED. If the sun was involved, both atmospheric layers would be warming. Instead the heat trapped in the lower level is causing the upper level to cool. It should be added that the sun's output has also weakened over the past 40 years, according to NASA. These are just a few of the reasons why the consensus on anthropogenic warming is 99.9%.
I am seeing so many documentaries that state CO2 is essential for the environment. I know there are tables related to e-carbon. Those toxic gases that companies release into the atmosphere. I have first hand experience of the toxic gases released by coal powered electricity generation. I don't think it's the carbon that does the damage but the other nasties that burning coal emits. I don't like the waste that finds its way into the environment. Surely efforts should be put into better waste management or more biodegradable waste and better filtering of gas emissions than just harping on about CO2? Unfortunately the e-carbon tables have the name carbon in them. This gives CO2 the bad name. Media reckons they can improve their following, and therefore their advertising, which results in better profits, by hyping up the CO2 debate and creating mass hysteria. Politicians and certain very astute businessmen pick up on this and try to benefit from it. Just like the Corona virus epidemic. Just my thoughts
CO2 is great for plants but only up to a point. We passed that point. That's because the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits, and in a myriad of ways. Sky News won't tell you that because its run by Rupert Murdoch, who has a huge stake in the oil industry.
When UK "cleaned up" their coal fired power stations, the crops began to fail. The farmers bought the bags of pollutants and put it on their fields, the crops recovered. It was fertilizer.
@@phillipchalmers3363 Using coal as fertilizer has nothing to do with the damage coal causes when combusted.COMBUSTED coal is the issue here. When combusted, the gases released actually DIM the sun, reducing photosynthesis. The CO2 released also increases the greenhouse effect, which in turn REDUCES farm productivity. While CO2 itself is good for plants, the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits by increasing crop-killing heatwaves, extreme precipitation events, droughts and wildfires.

Good Day, Some Aussies may be interested in a brief trip down memory lane of the past 49 years to where we are today. In 1975, with no public consultation, the ALP government of Gough Whitlam signed Australia up to the United Nations-inspired Lima Declaration which required Australia to reduce its manufacturing capabilities by around 30% and to commit to importing that amount from other preferred UN Member countries. Like China, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, etc. The UN Lima Declaration also mandates that we import as much primary produce as we can consume; such as fruit, vegetables, meat, fish etc.! But, time has told us that this UN Lima agreement ‘requirements’ were more insidious than we were led to believe. Over the following 49 years since their first UN misleading agreement! The UN Lima Declaration. Successive UN- Australia Government, LABOR and LNP POLITICIANS have forgotten that they are supposed to be working for the Aussie People, not against the very citizens that make them rich! Every UN agreement these dim-witted or deliberate traitors? Politicians have made with the unelected UN! 1982 the UN Agenda 21, then 1992 the UN Rio Agreement followed 2015 the UN Agenda 2030 to strengthen of the UN Agenda 21 insidious plan! And apparently, in May 2024 LABOR/gang-green pm Albo-sleazy will agree to the WEF+EU+UN+WHO latest and most dangerous power grab the “WHO PLANNED-DEMIC TREATY” Finally in 2019 the UN and Dr Billy Goats WHO and the WEF made formal joining of global objectives to create their Global Government and Global Policing Force in each UN Member Country by 2030! The 49 years of LABOR and LNP implementing all UN plans onto the Australian people, has been disastrous! And continues to be! 49 years ago Australia was self-sufficient in all manufacturing and agriculture and one of the leaders in exporters! We exported Aussie steel! Not just our minerals for others to make the steel and then sell it back to us? Back 49 years ago, Australian families needed one Parent working while the other Parent took care of the kids and the household and they all spent the weekends together! that’s how it was in my street, and around the city of Brisbane. But! Here we are 49 years since the Government Politicians were first foolish or was it an ego-driven decision to become just one of the UN's Global puppet Governments, the “UN Duopoly Politician Puppets” have changed our “Lucky Country “that so many have fought and many died protecting our Sovereignty, into a hollow shell of a country! With half the population now reliant on jobs within Governments and Councils, both parents working in Australian families, can they even afford to have a family in the GREAT RESET future? Thanks, Gough Whitlam, you might be proud of how the LABOR/gang-greens and LNP politicians have followed your example to this day. They are now loyal to the WEF+EU+WHO and your original bosses in the UN. Gough Whitlam that’s quite the legacy!

Dr Happer has been nice to corresponde with me and answer questions. He even shared a paper with me prior to his publishing it.
Real scientists will do this.
When I was working on my PhD in 2004 I tried to contact another scientist about her work and wanted to use it as the foundation for mine; more research is needed was her mantra in chapter 5. She ignored me and avoided me regularly; no phone calls, no email, not letters. She only relented after a year of me chasing her. By that point she'd finally gained Tenure and finally gave me written permission for me to use her test instrument.
I then went through her entire project and checked all her published data, all her math, and all her correlations. To my dismay I found numerous math errors which made her correlations wrong. I re-ran the numbers four more times and they were still wrong. Remember most committee members don't have time to read a dissertation, much less run the numbers. I talked with my committee chair and decided to ignore her work and use another pathway instead.
I earned my PhD in 2006 and on my last check she is still a respected faculty member, now a full professor, in a major southern university here in the US. I'd be really dismayed by this if I hadn't ran into so much bad math and bad data interpretation from 'respected' scientists in the 20 years since. I left academia in 2012, after 6 years and created my own chemical business; I've never looked back.

Yes, the CO2 Coalition, long funded by the fossil fuel industry to promote the use of more gas and oil. See CLIMATE MISINFORMATION BY SOURCE: WILLIAM HAPPER, at the Skeptical Science website.

"No fear speaking out the truth". What about the 97% of climate scientists that disagree with him. Are they afraid of speaking the truth? What a dumb argument.
Now, let's look closer at the CO2 COALITION. From Wikipedia: "The CO2 Coalition is a successor to the George C. Marshall Institute, a think tank focusing on defense and climate issues which closed in 2015. William O'Keefe, a chief executive officer of the Marshall Institute and former CEO of the American Petroleum Institute, continued as CEO of the CO2 Coalition."

@@andrezcabara2774 true but increasing CO2 levels in the atmosphere from 0.03% to 0.0425 (current level) or even to 0.08%, is not going to suffocate human and animal life.

"CO2 is life for all plan life on the planet'. Life for plants means life for humans!!!" Actually, we are already 20 years into an increasing"global browning trend" due to the hotter and drier conditions that more CO2 ALSO creates. Hint: For most major and minor mass extinctions in Earth's history, the main "kill mechanism" was substantial changes in global CO2 levels. If you want life to thrive, you leave the CO2 levels right where the species and ecosystems NOW on Earth are used to and adapted to CO2 levels being. For us, that would mean lowering CO2 levels back under 350.
@@HealingLifeKwikly You are incorrect. Why is CO2 pumped and
trapped into greenhouses to speed up growth and improve the
quantity of produce?
CO2 is essential for photosynthesis, so you would slow down plant growth, food would be harder to obtain (because it all depends on plants)
if the level of CO2 is reduced.
Increase CO2 and plants thrive; the ceiling being 3000 ppm. It is
currently 400 ppm. (av).

To wrap what one does not know or does not agree with in a wrap of inaccessible complexity is a weapon of mass distractions used by some Governments!
It's the right tactic to talk about the CO2 as a positive factor, that we need more of it, not less.
Because THIS strikes right at the heart of the scam, this forces them to roll out their claims that there's a positive feedback loop ready to unleash in the atmosphere any minute now. That's actually (scientifically provable!) a false claim. The part where they talk about the gradual warming trend is true, that's why they like to talk about it all the time but this alone doesn't constitute any threat to anyone. You need to add this "runaway feedback loop" fairy tale to it if you want to threaten and frighten people. And that part is a lie.
It's so obvious lie it's mindboggling. Anyone can Google "concentration of CO2 during the Cambrian era" and in 5 seconds you have irrefutable proof that raising our current CO2 levels can most definitely NOT cause any "runaway effects" whatsoever. Because that experiment has been already run on this planet. Results were negative. That's empirical test with measurable, objective results. That's how science works, you need actual test results to claim something. Not hysteria and empty slogans based on nothing.
No climate scientist is warning of a "runaway effect" that turns earth into Venus. They're warning of a 3C increase in temperature if CO2 doubles. Quite a difference.
The Cambrian experienced high CO2 for two reasons: (1) Massive volcanic activity and (2) During the first half of the period THERE WERE NO LAND PLANTS TO ABSORB THE EXCESS CO2. LAND PLANTS DID NOT EXIST. Today plants cover our entire planet with the exception of the poles, and they absorb a lot of CO2. Our sun was also significantly weaker in the Cambrian. The sun of our type actually strengthens as it evolves.
With a normal, slow increase in CO2 and warming, as earth experienced many times in its ancient past, animals and plants have thousands of years to adapt, migrate or evolve. But today's warming is happening TEN TIMES FASTER than in those ancient times.
Many living organisms simply can't adapt this quickly. It's why 10 billion snow crabs just died off Alaska and why the shrimp fishery off the coast of Maine has completely collapsed. Our world is also home to over 8 billion human beings with trillions of dollars worth of vulnerable infrastructure. Thus it's not exactly meaningfu to compare the Cambrian to today.
Everyone on the planet knows that CO2 is good for plants. What most don't realize is that the warming that accompanies rising CO2 is terrible for plants. See my answer to the "dogtutor" above your post for details of what Happer leaves out.
My car drives on composted organic material or in other words my car drives on fossil fuel.....the positive effect is more of the mutch needed CO2 for a greener world.
@@KD-cg9iq "CO2 is needed for plant food" is one of the fossil fuel industry's favorite propaganda memes. Unfortunately, the fossil fuel industry doesn't tell you the whole story.
CO2 is great for plants. But only up to a point. We've passed that point. That's because the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits. Heatwaves, for example, have TRIPLED since the 1960s, according to the EPA. Heatwaves DECIMATE crops. With a few days of temperatures above 75 degrees broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, lettuce and cabbage all bolt and stop developing. Between 85-95, tomatoes and cucumbers drop their flowers, reducing yield. Blueberries become necrotic and rot.
At 104 degrees all photosynthesis STOPS and many seeds won't even germinate. Think of places like Phoenix, which suffered through 31 straight days of above 110-degree temperatures this summer. If you're a subsistence farmer (and there are still over a billion in the world), you lose your crops, your sustenance and your livelihood in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately the negatve effects of heat don't end there. Warming air holds more water vapor, which is why extreme precipitation events are increasing worldwide. Epic downpours are not only drowning crops but washing away topsoils and fertilizer.
Increasing drought conditions are also blowing away topsoil and drying up the land, making them more prone to wildfires. Canada just suffered through the largest wildfire in its history this summer. This was after their average burn acreage had already doubled since the 1970s. Burn acreage in the western U.S. has TRIPLED. Greece just had the largest wildfire in European history. Not only do wildfires destroy trees, brush and crops, the smoke they create travels hundreds of miles, dimming the sun and reducing photosynthesis.
CO2-driven warming is also melting the icecaps, raising sea levels and increasing high tide flooding; it's intensifying hurricanes, expanding the range of disease-carrying ticks and mosquitoes, and increasing marine heatwaves. Warming ocean waters are why Alaska just lost 10 billion snow crabs in the Bering Sea and why Maine's shrimp fishery has totally collapsed.
It's not nearly as simple as William Happer and the oil industry would have you believe.
Al Gore promised me an ocean view by 2008. Still 50 miles from the sea.
Al Gore never promised such a thing. He predicted increasing sea level rise, PERIOD. And he was right. Sea level has risen four inches since 1993 and its rate of rise has doubled since then, according to NASA. According to NOAA, high tide flooding along the American south and Gulf costs has risen an astonishing 400% and 1100% respectively since the year 2000. (See NOAA HIGH TIDE FLOODING) Maine is uplifting land from glacial rebound yet last month suffered a record high tide that caused over $100 million in damages. The City Dock neighbrohood of Annapolis is flooding 60 times a year now, closing streets and businesses. Miami Beach has raised 105 miles of roads. New York and Louisiana have a combined $100 billion in new flood mitigation projects in the works. This isn't in someone's imagination. It's really happening.
Co2 is plant food, more co2 will make the planet green.
CO2 is plant food. Yes. But the warming that accompanies rising CO2 actually hurts crops, according to university studies, cancelling out CO2's benefits.
@@swiftlytiltingplanet8481 But not some other university studies... the rebuttal continues.
@@Blake-sh3nf While rising CO2 helps crops, the warming that accompanies it cancels out the benefit. Rising CO2 has TRIPLED heatwaves since the 1960s, according to the EPA.

Think about places in the world like Phoenix, which experienced 31 straight days of temperatures above 110 degrees this summer. If you're a subsistence farmer (there are still over a billion around the world), your entire season of crops would be wiped out. Now add in the increase in extreme precipitation events, which are inundating farmlands, washing away topsoils and fertilizer and drowning crops. These are also increasing, according to the EPA. Add in wildfires. Burn acreage has doubled across Canada since the 1970s and TRIPLED in the western U.S. Now add in the final blow: increased drought, which is also increasing, according to the IPCC.
Fossil fuel propaganda fools you by little lies of omission like this. Yes, CO2 is good for plants. And university studies clearly show that. But what they don't mention is the damage the warming does that accompanies that rising CO2.
@@swiftlytiltingplanet8481 So why is it a fact the globe is greening? You need to be more fact based. But your story sounds nice.
@@Blake-sh3nf The "greening of the earth" story originates with a NASA satellite survey back in the 1990s. That survey found significant increases in green-up around the globe, which NASA assumed came from our extra CO2. But a follow-up survey with greater resolution and additional on-the-ground research found that the most substantial greening didn't come from CO2 but from the planting of over 100 billion new trees and intensive new farming techniques in China and India, in addition to new mass plantings in the Sahel in Africa (the Great Green Wall, to stop the spread of the Sahara Desert) and elsewhere.
Climate deniers never mention NASA's second survey, only cherry-picking the original flawed findings. See HUMAN ACTIVITY IN CHINA AND INDIA DOMINATE THE GREENING OF EARTH, NASA STUDY SHOWS, Feb 11, 2019
See also EARTH STOPPED GETTING GREENER 20 YEARS AGO, Scientific American, Aug 15, 2019
CO2 has turned some parts of the earth greener, mainly in the Arctic, where no one lives, unfortunately. That makes sense, though, because there is no extreme heat there to hurt plants and they can enjoy the full benefit of CO2 enrichment without damage from higher temperatures.

He's also the former head of the CO2 Coalition, which has long been funded by the fossil fuel industry to promote the use of more gas and oil.

Plants, on average, cannot survive with less than 0.0125%....
99 out of 100 people in my climate zone understand Professor Happer to be wise, intelligent, trustworthy, and correct.
Happer conveniently neglects to include in his projections the feedback effects that C02 triggers. C02-driven warming, in fact, accelerates evaporation, which fills the atmosphere with additional water vapor which, itself a greenhouse gas, then works synergistically to warm the planet more than C02 could do on its own. Methane, another powerful greenhouse gas, is also released from pent-up permafrost. Like water vapor, it works with C02 to increase warming beyond what C02 could do on its own. As time goes on, more and more of the ice sheets melt, reducing sun-reflecting albedo, and exposing more land and ocean to absorb (instead of reflect) sunlight. This is, in fact, one of the most powerful synergistic warming agents to work with C02.
So these people are basically scientifically illiterate then? Not a single scientific institution on earth agrees with Happer's view that more CO2 is good for civlization or that today's climate change is "natural and harmless." NONE. NADA. ZILCH.

I'll keep saying it, climate change is a political policy $$ not an environmental problem.
So you don't see a four-inch sea level rise since 1993 an environmental problem? The rate of rise, in fact, has DOUBLED since then, according to the World Meteorological Organization. In the U.S., Houston, New York and Louisiana have a combined $100 billion in new flood mitigation projects in the works. Miami Beach has moved buildings and raised 105 miles of roads. One neighborhood in Annapolis must close its streets and businesses 60 times a year. All due to rapidly increasing tidal flooding.
Heatwaves have TRIPLED since the 1960s, according to the U.S. EPA. Marine heatwaves have increased 20-fold, according to the University of Bern. A marine heatwave off Alaska just killed 10 billion snow crabs. Warming waters off Maine have completely collapsed its shrimp fishery. Hurricanes have intensified 8% per decade, according to NOAA. Canada just suffered through the largest wildfire in its history. Greece just suffered through the largest wildfire in European history. No worries? Tick-and-mosquito-borne diseases like malaria and Lyme have increased 60% worldwide as both insects have increased their range. Flesh-eating bacteria is expanding its range by 30 miles per year. Extreme precipitation events are also increasing, washing away entire towns and villages and destroying farm crops. The incidence of drought, drought intensity and drought duration have also increased. No worries?
@@swiftlytiltingplanet8481 NO.

Even New England, which is uplifting land from glacial rebound, is up 140%. The lower Breton Sound area of Louisiana has lost over 8500 acres to inundation since 1985, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
We know from proxy evidence that the last time the world experienced 400ppm of CO2, sea level rose 29 feet, according to the University of South Hampton. The only reason we haven't seen 29 feet yet is time, as ice melt greatly lags CO2 levels.
Many insurance companies are jumping ship with the rising costs of coverage. People living in high risk areas like the U.S. northwest and in Florida are struggling to pay for skyrocketing premiums, are dropping coverage or have lost coverage to insurance companies fearing bankruptcy.
Lyme Disease never existed in the northeast before 1985. Now it's epidemic. Nobody walks unprotected through woods and fields anymore. Ticks surving the New England winters are also killing moose calves by blood drains, with some corpses found with as many as 70,000 ticks covering them. The moose are nicknamed "ghost moose" because they've lost all their hair to the tick infestation. See WINTER TICKS WIPED OUT NEARLY 90% OF MOOSE CALVES SCIENTISTS TRACKED IN PART OF MAINE LAST YEAR.

In 2021, Cornell University surveyed the over 88000 climate studies published from 202-2020 and tallied a 99.9% consensus that human activity, not nature, is driving climate change. Even Exxon's own scientists in leaked memos have acknowledged that cmbusted fossil fuels are warming the planet to a damaging degree.
By contrast, you just watched a clip from Sky News, run by Rupert Murdoch, the world's most notorious climate change denier. Why such a denier? Because he co-owns a fossil fuel company, Genie Energy, and sits on their advisory board.
Happer casts a kindly old grandfather figure. We can't help but like the guy. Unfortunately he has been profoundly debunked in the scientific literature, which you can see at CLIMATE MISINFORMATION BY SOURCE: WILLIAM HAPPER, at the Skeptical Science website. Alas, not a single scientific institution on earth agrees with his opinion that "more CO2 would be better for us." Just the opposite. Even his own Amercan Physical Society, with its over 50,000 physicists, vehemently disagrees. (See their 2021 position statement on climate change.) FYI, Happer is the former head of the CO2 Coalition, which has long been funded by the families who own fossil fuel companies. Food for thought.

This climate crisis is not about climate.
It's EVERYTHING about climate. Thousands of PhD-level climate scientists, tens of thousands of peer-reviewed studies, 80 academies of science and ALL of the world's major scientific institutions, from NASA to NOAA to the World Meteorological Organization, say it is. So do Exxon's own scientists in leaked memos. Happer, by contrast, is completely REJECTED by the American Physical Society, which is comprised of over 50,000 physicists with the same qualifications as Happer. Unlike Happer, they urge "swift action" against the damage we're causing with our emissions. Keep in mind that Sky News is run by Rupert Murdoch, who CO-OWNS A FOSSIL FUEL COMPANY AND SITS ON THEIR BOARD. It's why this fake news network only has on crackpot and outlying scientists, never anyone from the 99.9% consensus.
@@swiftlytiltingplanet8481 If by fossil fuels you're referring to petroleum, it's NOT a fossil fuel, it's Abiotic. Please refer to Climategate, the 2009 hacking and leaking of hundreds of emails from the University of East Anglia where scientists acknowledged that none of the modelling / predictions over several decades had eventuated, how to censor dissenting scientists and how to hide the Medieval Warm Period which was conveniently left out of Al Gore's thousand year hockey stick graph because it was the real "inconvenient truth".

CO2 is great for plants agriculture and food production.
CO2 is indeed great for plants, but the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits by increasing heatwaves, extreme precipitation events, droughts, wildfires, and heat-loving insects. None are good for plants. Contrary to popular belief, farm productivity is now 21% LOWER than it would otherwise be without global warming, according to the world's leading agricultural research institution, Cornell University.
High CO2 also diminishes staple crops like wheat and rice of their zinc, iron and protein content, making them less nutritious for human consumption. Most people don't know that and climate denying media outlets like Sky won't tell you that.
Plants also leave behind over 40% of our CO2 emissions, allowing them to simply accumulate in the atmosphere, year after year, decade after decade. That excess CO2 can remain in circulation for centuries before finally being fluxed back into natural sinks.
The same warming that hurts plants is also melting the icecaps, raising sea levels, expanding wildfire seasons, intensifying hurricanes, and increasing marine heatwaves, and tick-and-mosquito-borne diseases.
Keep in mind that Sky News is run by Rupert Murdoch, the world's most notorious climate denier and co-owner of Genie Energy, a fossil fuel company.
I have a PhD in environmental science. While there are some interesting dynamics occurring in global climate patterns, there is certainly no climate crisis. Unfortunately, saying this makes me a heretic and I could lose my job if I said this out loud. As every sane and observant non-scientist can see, this is all about power, money and control.
Who has lost their job from climate contrarianism? Can you name anyone? There's lots of hyperbole about such action but no evidence it has ever happened.
Sea level has risen four inches since 1993 and its rate of rise has DOUBLED, according to NASA. In January the state of Maine suffered a record high tide that caused $100 million in damages. According to NOAA, high tide flooding along the American south and Gulf coasts has risen an astonishing 400% and 1100% respectively since the year 2000. Louisiana has already lost over 8800 acres to permanent inundation in its lower Breton Sound area, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It's why that state has a new $50 billion flood mitigation project in the works. So does New York, with its borough of Queens flooding on a regular basis. Annapolis, Maryland (the City Dock neighborhood) closes streets and businesses 60 times a year due to flooding. Miami Beach has raised 105 miles of roads by two feet in order to keep back the rising tide. Odisha Sate in India reports losing no less than 16 coastal villages to high tide flooding.
Sea level is going to rise by another two feet by 2100, causing much more financial catastrophe than we're seeing now. No climate crisis?
In 2015 the Amazon suffered a record drought that killed an estimated 2.5 billion trees and plants and millions of animals. It was the second "once-in-a-century" drought since 2005. 8 years later it happened a third time, only worse, killing far more flora and fauna and igniting 26 million acres with out-of-control wildfires. Rain forests are normally too wet to burn. No climate crisis?
According to a study in Environmental Research Letters, crop losses due to drought and heatwaves tripled over the last five decades in Europe. According to a study by Cornell University, farm productivity is 21% lower than it would otherwise by without global warming. Luckily we've been able to stay ahead of the losses with industrial-scale farming, but small scale farmers who can't afford crop insurance are suffering. Third world subsistence farmers are suffering most of all.
If you're well versed on the environment, you know that photosynthesis breaks down at 104 degrees, and many seeds won't even germinate at that temperature. Think of places in the world like Phoenix, which last summer suffered through 31 straight days of temperatures above 110 degrees. You can't successfully farm in temperatures like that. Cool weather crops like cabbage, lettuce, spinach, broccoli, peas and cauliflower cease development entirely when temperatures go above 75 degrees for more than five days. Many other crops wilt and drop their flowers with extended days in the 90s. Above 100? Most crops, other than those originating in the tropics, crap out.
Αl Gore, two decades ago, created a new "profession" for some leftovers and they jumped on it. It will be very difficult to get rid of them now, but it can be done.
the book red hot lies documents the level of infiltration that al gore's minions have done throughout the institutions worldwide. Most people do not appreciate how widespread it is. The only way I see to eradicate this cancer is to educate people. if people sit on the sidelines they will be destroyed.
Absolute sea level has risen four inches since 1993 and the rate of rise has doubled since then, according to NASA and the World Meteorological Org. According to NOAA, high tide flooding along the American south and Gulf coasts has risen an astonishing 400% and 1100% respectively since the year 2000. Even New England, which is uprising land from glacial rebound, is up 140%. In response to the rising tide, New York, Louisiana and Houston already have a combined $100 billion in new flood mitigation projects in the works. And we're just getting started.
Should no one in science be studying this? How about the tripling of heatwaves since the 1960s? The 20-fold increase in marine heatwaves, one of which killed an estimated 10 billion snow crabs off Alaska? How about the 8% per decade increase in hurricane intensity? The increase in extreme precipitation events and drought? How about the record wildfire in Canada this year? The record wildfire in Greece? The tripling of wildfire burn acreage in the American west over the past 20 years? Not worthy of scientific study?
@@swiftlytiltingplanet8481so its enough for you to just claim warming. you are not speaking to the cause of warming because it has been drilled into you that the only cause is human cause. also you are cherry picking your start dates with the word "since". wildfires are dramatically down if you look further back, they were multiples higher 100 years ago. seek out the real data, then you will realise that those saying things like "over the past 20 years" are only showing you data to make you think trends are increasing, that is a form of lying, you are happy to repeat the lies of these people? why? because you are afraid? because it aligns with your political agenda? same with hurricanes, look at ryan maue's work - it show there is no trend in hurricanes, even the ippcc state this. are you trying to brainwash me or trying to brainwash yourself?
@@littlefish9305 Sorry, no. You've been hoodwinked by the usual internet charlatans. The infamous wildfire graph that shows MORE fires 100 years ago includes millions of acres of INTENTIONAL BURNS. Worse, the total burn acreage was mistakenly counted MORE THAN ONCE by multiple government agencies. Today's stats don't include intentional burns and they're definiately not counted twice. The National Interagency Fire Center warns people about the gross inaccuracies in that notorious graph, but it falls on the deaf ears of internet deniers like Tony Heller, Anthony Watts (wattsupwiththat) and many others. That's where you're getting your information from, not a credible scientific source.

@@littlefish9305 ELEVEN separate studies confirm the scientific consensus on climate change. ELEVEN. In 2021, Cornell University surveyed the over 88000 climate studies published from 2012-2020 and tallied a 99.9% consensus that human activity, not nature, is driving climate change. Even Exxon's own scientists in leaked memos have acknowledged that combusted fossil fuels are warming the planet to a damaging degree.
We know humans are warming the planet via several lines of evidence, including analysis of the ratios of carbon 12, 13 and 14 in atmospheric CO2. CO2 from combusted fossil fuels has a DIFFERENT isotopic signature than CO2 from volcanoes, the ocean or the biosphere. Because of that difference, we can calculate how much of the 140ppm of CO2 added to the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution has come from us: 100%.
The Milankovitch Cycles that ushered warm and cold periods in and out in earth's past are now in COOLING phases and have nothing to do with today's warming.
Earth’s axis is currently tilted 23.4 degrees (it's maximum is 24.5), or about half way between its extremes, and this angle is very slowly decreasing in a cycle that spans about 41,000 years. It was last at its maximum tilt about 10,700 years ago and will reach its minimum tilt about 9,800 years from now. As obliquity decreases, it gradually helps make our seasons milder, resulting in increasingly warmer winters, and cooler summers that gradually, over time, allow snow and ice at high latitudes to build up into large ice sheets. As ice cover increases, it reflects more of the Sun’s energy back into space, promoting even further cooling.
Earth's orbital eccentricity ranges from ZERO (a perfect circular orbit) to 0.067. Today it’s 0.017. That means we're moving toward COOLING, not warming. The same is true of earth's precession or wobble.
Spectroscopic analysis of the the atmosphere clearly shows heat passing through CO2 and radiating back to earth. It's emprical evidence of the greenhouse effect at work. As that greenhouse effect has increased, our troposphere has warmed and our stratosphere has COOLED. If the sun was involved, both atmospheric layers would be warming. Instead the heat trapped in the lower level is causing the upper level to cool. It should be added that the sun's output has also weakened over the past 40 years, according to NASA.
These are just a few of the reasons why the consensus on anthropogenic warming is 99.9%.
dr. happer is correct!
He isn't.
I am seeing so many documentaries that state CO2 is essential for the environment. I know there are tables related to e-carbon. Those toxic gases that companies release into the atmosphere. I have first hand experience of the toxic gases released by coal powered electricity generation. I don't think it's the carbon that does the damage but the other nasties that burning coal emits. I don't like the waste that finds its way into the environment. Surely efforts should be put into better waste management or more biodegradable waste and better filtering of gas emissions than just harping on about CO2? Unfortunately the e-carbon tables have the name carbon in them. This gives CO2 the bad name. Media reckons they can improve their following, and therefore their advertising, which results in better profits, by hyping up the CO2 debate and creating mass hysteria. Politicians and certain very astute businessmen pick up on this and try to benefit from it. Just like the Corona virus epidemic. Just my thoughts
CO2 is great for plants but only up to a point. We passed that point. That's because the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits, and in a myriad of ways. Sky News won't tell you that because its run by Rupert Murdoch, who has a huge stake in the oil industry.
When UK "cleaned up" their coal fired power stations, the crops began to fail. The farmers bought the bags of pollutants and put it on their fields, the crops recovered. It was fertilizer.
@@phillipchalmers3363 Using coal as fertilizer has nothing to do with the damage coal causes when combusted.COMBUSTED coal is the issue here. When combusted, the gases released actually DIM the sun, reducing photosynthesis.
The CO2 released also increases the greenhouse effect, which in turn REDUCES farm productivity. While CO2 itself is good for plants, the warming that accompanies rising CO2 cancels out its benefits by increasing crop-killing heatwaves, extreme precipitation events, droughts and wildfires.

That is right co2 has it's place on earth, the trouble comes with the accumulation of co2 in the upper atmosphere currently at is biggest level sinse the 1900 's that is the problem.
There is a couple of the facts that Prof Happer mentions here I learned in Geology and Biology classes from college. There used to be more carbon in the Cambrian era from a thing called volcanoes. This Professor is qualified and spot on.
