The Will Spencer Podcast CAL BEISNER - Net Zero Will Kill Half the World's Population: Cornwall Alliance Founder on Climate Policy
Dr. Cal Beisner is the founder of the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation and a Reformed theologian who challenges mainstream climate orthodoxy from a biblical worldview.
In this conversation, he reveals how climate models consistently overpredict warming by 2-4 times actual observations and argues that net zero emissions would kill half the world's population. The episode explores why biblical stewardship contradicts both secular environmentalism and population control ideologies, while defending fossil fuels as essential for lifting the global poor out of poverty.
