Generally, I conclude most of my climate change presentations with the phrase, "It's not about the climate; it never was." Here, I would like to start with that statement.
In this brief article, I will discuss why carbon dioxide isn't the dangerous gas it is made out to be, why climate change is not an 'existential' threat to the planet, and why the Green New Deal is not a solution to climate change.
Is our climate changing? The answer is clearly "YES" because climate has always changed.
Treating the climate as a statistical average further implies that it should be static; in fact, the Earth's climate is dynamic, variable, and ever-changing.
Over the last twenty years, our estimates of the equilibrium climate sensitivity have decreased substantially, based on measurements of the climate system.
How do we know that carbon dioxide is a minor player in climate change? Both theory and models tell us that the biggest effect of carbon dioxide on air temperatures should lie in the upper tropical troposphere.
This further underscores that climate models grossly overstate the climate warming.
