#9: Peter Ridd on record Great Barrier Reef coral cover and scientific integrity

Peter Ridd is a geophysicist with over 100 publications and 35 years’ experience working on the Great Barrier Reef and developed a wide range of world-first optical and electronic instruments for measuring environmental conditions near corals and other ecosystems. He was head of Physics at James Cook University for over a decade before being fired, in 2018, for questioning the quality assurance systems used by reef science institutions. Some of the poor-quality work relates to the effect, or lack of effect, of climate change, and agriculture, on the reef. Ridd now works, unpaid, with agricultural organisations, and the Institute of Public Affairs to improve quality assurance systems of “science” used by Australian governments to make environmental laws and regulations.

#8 - Brian Catt

Acclaimed physicist and engineer Brian Catt: I am a Chartered physicist and electrical engineer, who worked in research activities before entering technology business, where the technology has to work as claimed or you don't get paid. I returned to research and publishing in retirement, so am now informed by current experience and personal contact with leading figures in University research, as well as the industries and politics associated with the "science" that it claims to follow. Hence my view is broad and my formation covers all the areas I discuss. I question how "scientific" research really is, both at the heart of the problem being considered, and also across the broad range of University scientific research Over 500,000 views on this Aug 2022 Brian Catt TalkTV clip!: https://twitter.com/BigBluexlt/status/1560958961855201280 Catt on Net Zero: https://twitter.com/CAR26_ORG/status/1554575090532089858 Catt on Twitter: https://twitter.com/catandman Freeman Dyson tells it like it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hswLwqRIW8&t=203s William Happer on photosynthesis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHCCE-sw_Sc ---- Tom Nelson's Twitter: https://twitter.com/tan123 Substack: https://tomn.substack.com/ About Tom: https://tomnelson.blogspot.com/2022/03/about-me-tom-nelson.html Notes for climate skeptics: https://tomnelson.blogspot.com/2019/06/useful-notes-for-climate-skeptics.html ClimateGate emails: https://tomnelson.blogspot.com/p/climategate_05.html

#7 - Doug Lightfoot

About H. Douglas Lightfoot: Born in Vancouver, B.C., he graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering in 1952, and received an MBA from Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec, in 1976. He spent eighteen years with Domtar Inc. at the Research Centre in Senneville, Quebec, working on research, engineering and economic studies of a wide variety of projects for the pulp and paper, chemicals and construction materials businesses as well as alternate energies. Prior to joining Domtar, he spent a year as Business Analyst and five years as Design Engineer designing, building and starting up chemical plants at Dupont of Canada, Montreal, Quebec. Before that, twelve years of project engineering at Standard Chemical Limited, Beauharnois, Quebec. He is a retired member of the Order of Engineers of Quebec, Professional Engineers of Ontario, and a Life Member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. He was a member of the Global Environmental and Climate Change Centre (GEC3) and its predecessor at McGill University branch, Montreal, Quebec for 23 years until it closed in 2015. He wrote and contributed to published reports for the Centre on various subjects related to energy. Since retirement he co-founded the Lightfoot Institute, published a dozen papers on energy and the role of CO2 in the atmosphere, and reviewed more than 250 papers for energy journals. He looks upon his current energy work as service to the community to guide people to understand the importance of energy to our society and to making good decisions to ensure an adequate and reliable energy supply.

Should activists who don't know anything about energy or climate push stupid energy policies in an attempt to "fix" an imaginary climate crisis?  Barry talks about his experiences as a long-time voice for sanity in the climate debate.

#5 - Susan Crockford

Dr. Susan Crockford is a professional zoologist with a special interest in evolutionary theory and dozens of peer-reviewed papers on a variety of topics; from 2004-2019 she was an adjunct professor at the University of Victoria, British Columbia. Since 2012, she has challenged claims that polar bears and other Arctic species face devastation due to loss of summer sea ice, which over the years has generated a surprisingly nasty backlash from climate activists and their supporters. She blogs at http://polarbearscience.com. Her books include The Polar Bear Catastrophe That Never Happened, Sir David Attenborough and the Walrus Deception, Polar Bear Facts & Myths (for kids), and (for fiction lovers) a polar bear attack thriller set in Newfoundland called EATEN.

#4 - Ben Pile

About Ben Pile: Blogging @ www.climate-resistance.org since 2007 -- slogan: challenging climate orthodoxy. Main emphasis is broadening the debate out from science, and being a bit more curious about the role of institutional science in politics than was fashionable at the time, ultimately focussing more on green ideology than climate science. Writing for Spiked-online on climate/science & politics since 2006. Worked as researcher for Godfrey Bloom UKIP MEP from 2009-2013. Tweeting @clim8resistance, but currently in twitter prison. Now also Youtubing @ https://www.youtube.com/c/ClimateResistance . Setting up a new project for launch at the end of the summer, more TBA. —— Tom Nelson's Twitter: https://twitter.com/tan123 About Tom (includes other podcast appearances): https://tomnelson.blogspot.com/2022/03/about-me-tom-nelson.html Substack: https://tomn.substack.com/ Notes for climate skeptics: https://tomnelson.blogspot.com/2019/06/useful-notes-for-climate-skeptics.html ClimateGate emails: https://tomnelson.blogspot.com/p/climategate_05.html

#3 - Roger Tattersall (Tallbloke)

Roger Tattersall, AKA Tallbloke (he's 6'8"), is a qualified engineer and a graduate of the history and philosophy of science. He's been interested in the climate debate since Jim Hanson testified to congress about the danger of CO2 emissions in 1988, and has been watching and commenting on developments ever since. In 2009, he started his own blog at Tallbloke's Talkshop (http://tallbloke.wordpress.com) , to share ideas and host discussion on everything climate related, from astrophysics to energy policy.
