Bastardi sees modern climate scientists as inordinately fixated on carbon dioxide at the expense of other major factors (an example of their narrow, model-focused approaches, versus his tendency toward holistic empirical observation). “It’s almost the equivalent of saying, ‘Your big toe runs your body,’” he says. “Carbon dioxide is a trace gas, a tiny gas, part of this huge system. You’re trying to tell me that’s going to control the system and influence the energy of the system? When you have things like the sun, which is obviously the greatest contributor to the world’s energy? It almost defies common sense.”
Gonna miss Joe
Just another realist, victimized by the Cult of Carbon.
Joe has a real following for his meteorological savvy as well as his forthright presentation of the facts. He’ll do fine and will, undoubtedly, have the last laugh.
ALMOST defies logic? LOL He is playing nice… it DOES defy logic.
