Lindzen represents the best of a dying breed in the sciences. As he alluded to, the cooperation and camaraderie of intellectuals in the past has given way to a kind of isolation engendered by the pressure to generate funding. This pressure stifles independent and especially controversial research in favor of "consensus" studies dictated by politics, governments and corporations. Galilleo is turning over in his grave.
He is the man
This is what every American needs to review, there is No Climate crisis
The best of the best!
When a master is lecturing experts expect a different language, and technical terms unknown even to most highly educated people. It must drive Lindzen crazy trying to explain the science to politicians who struggle to grasp even the concept of a convection current, and don't retain what is explained to them.
Google doing a great job keeping this from the public
Controversial and genius. Richard Lindzen is the man. Only a physicist trained in mathematics can do things as this man can do in atmospheric sciences!!!
For certain: the mean atmospheric pressure at sea level is given equivalently as

The point is we are on a globe with different seasons at different times & we have various biomes. So it makes no sense to take say 7 continents & average 7 temps & tell the folks the average of the planet is X. Even if we carved those 7 up into 14, it's bunk. The planet is too big with too much geomorphology. So an average is impractical. Of course the media, at the end of every summer, rushes to print that they know what the average increase was for that summer. They base it on the North American summer & they have the numbers right away. Bunk. You would have to have a gazillion temp stations all over the earth & put this in a computer. But the media for all intents & purposes is pravda. It's still cold on top of Mt. Everest & it's still hot in an Indonesian rainforest. Then there are microclimates. Again the media does not recognize anomalies. One year the jet stream rides high, another year it rides low. In CT 2020 we have had no storm fronts & no cold freeze. However, the last 2 springs were rainy & raw. 2012 & 2014/15 were polar vortices. That is relevant only to CT. It has nothing to do with Mauna Loa or Indonesia.
There is a strong "it is all settled" mindset nowadays, hence all that is left to show how it is settled. I tend to believe not that much is settled especially about the underlying dynamics of climate, it would be wiser to revisit the topic in lower level approach from time to time, in any domain so to speak. I believe Prof. Lindzen and likeminded academicians/scientists does not dwell on whether there is climate crisis or not, they would rather asses the methodologies and approaches used
Just a quick comment. But add I understand it, it's not just the earth that's currently warming. Other planets in the solar system are warming too. Any comments?
i love how everyone "the alarmists", make comments how nothing is being done to fight climate change. Ok, like what? How many of you out there are going to give up your heat, cooling, refrigerators, cars, electric, or your internet. Nobody is going argue that.
I was suspicious of him at first but after I saw the prominent tuft of unkempt hair on top I knew he is the real thing
Este hombre sabe cómo aburrir al público.
The comments on this have got me creasing
Mr "We know nothing." :D
Folks the earth does not possess one temperature.
This professor I have seen played by Benny Hill.
Five years has proved Richard lindzen is a quack as the Earth is dying.
