Ron Davison received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemical Engineering (with distinction) in 1984 and began a long and successful career as a professional engineer in the energy industry.In this episode, Ron Davison challenges the prevailing narrative about CO2 as a major climate driver, citing multiple data sources and his own analyses. Davison argues that CO2’s impact on climate is overestimated and that other factors like solar and oceanic cycles play significant roles. He also critiques current climate models and policies for their economic and scientific shortcomings.00:00 Introduction and Guest Background00:15 Early Involvement in Climate Science00:54 CO2 and Climate Data Analysis01:55 Challenges with Climate Models06:11 Greenland and Antarctica Temperature Analysis10:44 Sea Level Changes and CO214:42 Long-term CO2 and Temperature Projections20:02 Economic Implications of Climate Policies25:19 Extreme Weather and CO229:01 Solar Forcing and Climate Models41:38 Concluding Remarks and Resourceshttps://climatechangeandmusic.com/https://x.com/FriendsOSciencehttps://linktr.ee/friendsofscienceEnergy & Climate at a Glance: https://sensiblechange.ca/pdfs/GB-graphicsreferences.pdf—Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Chris Morrison criticizes the Met Office and other climate organizations for the poor siting and inaccurate data collection at weather stations, which he argues skew global warming statistics. He highlights the work of researchers like Ray Sanders and Dr. Eric Huxster, who have identified serious flaws in temperature recording practices, such as measuring heat spikes near artificial heat sources. Morrison also discusses how these flawed practices contribute to fearmongering about climate change, advocating for a return to rigorous scientific standards untainted by political agendas.00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction00:34 Freedom of Information Act Request01:44 Analysis of Temperature Records01:59 Amateur Contributions to Data Analysis02:53 Heat Spikes and Their Implications05:06 Questioning the Met Office's Data Integrity05:47 Historical Temperature Comparisons07:53 Global Warming and Data Manipulation08:19 Political and Media Influence on Climate Data09:28 Challenges in Accurate Temperature Measurement15:11 Global Perspective on Temperature Measurement23:51 Net Zero and Climate Policy Critique25:03 Public Perception and Media Influence27:12 Conclusion and Final Thoughts35:10 The Energy Crisis and Net Zero Debate35:52 Critique of BBC's Coverage on Net Zero36:49 Philosophical Debates on Net Zero38:00 Mainstream Media's Shift on Net Zero42:39 The Role of Financial Journalism47:11 Climate Journalism and Grooming Courses56:16 COP Meetings and the Future of Climate Politics01:03:46 The Scientific Debate on Climate Change01:08:47 Concluding Thoughts on Climate Sciencehttps://twitter.com/CMorrisonEsqhttps://dailysceptic.org/author/chris-morrison/========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
