#68 Dr Matthew M. Wielicki: A climate realist in academia
Dr. Matthew M Wielicki is a research assistant professor in the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Alabama.
Prior to his work at the University of Alabama, he was a post-doctoral research scientist in the Department of Earth, Planetary, and Space Sciences and the Institute for Planets and Exoplanets at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Dr. Wielicki's research interests include conditions of early Earth during the initiation of life, constraining the amount of continental lithosphere through time; understanding the flux and timing of asteroids impacting the Earth-Moon system and the association with major extinction events;
medical mineralogy and the evolution of the Himalaya and the Tibetan Plateau.
Dr. Wielicki also enjoys musing about climate on social media.

#66 Dale Johnson: ClimateGate deep dive
Former alarmist (cooling world 1970s) Ozone (1980s) global warming (2000s)
I read the first batch of leaked emails 2009 just out of curiousity, reading the first 100 changed my alarmism into skepticism. I did read them all but just absorbed the information and started to post a few things on Twitter about it but kept getting banned. I used one ban from Twitter to take 4-5 months to read everything in ClimateGate 2.0 including Harry Read Me file, then started a new account and had a good friend that I met in the Philippine (graphics art background) team up with me and we become Dawn.
She's being stalked for our views so she can't post personal pics.
My background - high school (accounting) college (accounting) but dropped out; numbers were boring. I worked for Northern Telecom for a decade (world's top 3 telecom manufacturer - PBX, cell site equipment etc, several years quality control and ISO900 auditor for one line of cell site equipment. Other job opportunities since then included long haul truck driver (Canada - USA) Public works foreman (small municipal government in Alberta) water and waste water certified, current occupation professional driver for a local tourist related company.

#64 David Dilley: “We’re going into a global cooling cycle now”
Government agencies say that carbon dioxide levels are rising entirely due to human activity and the burning of fossil fuels. But are they? Professor Dilley will show that today’s temperatures and carbon dioxide levels are very close to where they should be based on historical cycles. He will also show that we are sliding into a long-term global cooling cycle. Global Warming begins and ends at the poles—and Global Cooling is now occurring in the Arctic and Antarctic
Professor David Dilley is a Meteorologist-Climatologists-Paleoclimatologist and a former NOAA National Weather Service Meteorologist. Professor Dilley is the founder and CEO of Global Weather Oscillations (GWO), a company heavily involved in research and development of technology for prediction of natural climate and weather cycles.
Professor Dilley has 54-years of experience ranging from the Air Force to NOAA National Weather Service and GWO. As the senior research scientist and forecaster for GWO, Mr. Dilley developed ClimatePulse Technology based on Geomagnetic Cycles of the earth-moon-and sun, and how these cycles align with historical, present day and future cycles of climate and weather.

#60 Linnea Lueken: Warmists are “playing with people's lives in a very literal sense”
Linnea Lueken is a Research Fellow with the Arthur B. Robinson Center on Climate and Environmental Policy. While she was an intern with The Heartland Institute in 2018, she co-authored a policy brief 'Debunking Four Persistent Myths About Hydraulic Fracturing'.
Lueken graduated from the University of Wyoming in 2018 with a B.S. in Petroleum Engineering, and a minor in geology. In college, she was active in her sorority, the UW Shooting Sports Team, and College Republicans, as well as a variety of engineering organizations. Before coming to Heartland, she worked in the Gulf of Mexico on deepwater drillships as a logging geologist.

#59 Howard Hayden: “the IPCC does NOT apply the Stefan-Boltzmann law to their results”
Howard “Cork” Hayden is a Professor Emeritus of Physics from the University of Connecticut. A Pueblo native, he graduated from Aurora High School, entered the University of Denver as an engineering major, but soon discovered that he wasn’t temperamentally suited to all that reality. He switched to physics and went on to earn his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. at DU. On receiving his Ph.D., he went to the University of Connecticut where he spent 32 years doing teaching and research. He did accelerator-based atomic physics, including measurements of cross-sections for various processes, measurements of energy loss in atomic collisions and of lifetimes of excited states, beam-foil spectroscopy, and ion implantation. He performed a Trouton-Noble (1904) experiment with 100,000 times as much sensitivity as the original. Hayden has a long-standing interest in energy, stemming from before the OPEC oil embargoes of the 70s. Presently, he publishes a monthly newsletter, The Energy Advocate, which in August 2019 began its 24th year of publication.
