Fleming 8:10 on AMS, AGU, AAAS: "all 3 of those organizations will not support a "denier"..I could not get published in any of those organizations..as a denier..I had to go to Europe to publish a paper..it was peer-reviewed in Europe, it got thru, & it has been very successful" https://t.co/ui3xAOZdGi

Fleming 39:25: "It's gonna get colder..plus or minus five years from 2030, there's gonna be the solar minimum..when it gets colder there will be less food production". #ClimateBrawl https://t.co/ui3xAOZdGi

Ex-NOAA bigwig Fleming: "the 'deniers' have so much evidence..[the warmists] bring nothing to the table of scientific proof. All they have is hearsay. All they have is media coverage. All they have is government people saying it's true". #ClimateBrawl 37:20 https://t.co/ui3xAOZdGi

Fleming on the alleged tropical hotspot: "There's been no tropical heating for the last 20 years, but the models all show it, big-time" 30:30 https://t.co/ui3xAOZdGi

Fleming: "Past climates have been warm and cold and warm and cold with no changes in carbon dioxide. How can that be a cause when there's no correlation"? 28:45 #ClimateBrawl https://t.co/ui3xAOZdGi

Fleming: "resultant Planck radiation intensity is severely depleted in the upper atmosphere. The result is the CO2 molecules merely pass their remaining small residual heat to space un-impeded. CO2 has no impact on climate change." https://t.co/qCWVHLu6Y3

Dr. Rex J. Fleming is a mathematician with a Ph.D. in Atmospheric Science from the U. of Michigan. He has over 50 years of experience as a scientist and manager in weather and climate research. He has published peer reviewed scientific papers from 1971 to 2018. He has represented the Unites States of America at several international science meetings, including as the Chief Delegate at the First United States Ocean Climate Delegation to the People’s Republic of China in 1982. He was awarded the Department of Commerce Gold Medal Award (1980) for outstanding achievement in directing the U.S. role in the Global Weather Experiment (FGGE). He was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Sciences (1982) for contributions to atmospheric science. From his retired position as a consultant in the aerospace business he has used his own funds to carry out research on climate issues. He has an important paper on the chaos associated with the large scale instability of the atmosphere and a book on combining the Stochastic Dynamic Equations with the Monte Carlo approach to investigate nonlinear systems in more detail.

Fired for ‘Diverging’ on Climate: Progressive Professor’s fellowship ‘terminated’ after WSJ OpEd calling global warming ‘unproved science’– Professor’s fellowship ‘terminated’ after WSJ OpEd declaring ‘the left wants to stop industrialization—even if the hypothesis of catastrophic, man-made global warming is false’
Climate Statistics Prof. Caleb Rossiter: ‘If people ever say that fears of censorship for ‘climate change’ views are overblown, have them take a look at this. Just two days after I published a piece in the Wall Street Journal calling for Africa to be allowed the ‘all of the above’ energy strategy we have in the U.S., the Institute for Policy Studies (IPS) terminated my 23-year relationship with them…because my analysis and theirs ‘diverge.’
Scientist Dr. Daniel Botkin Tells Congress why he reversed his belief in global warming to become a skeptic: ‘There are several lines of evidence suggesting that it (AGW) is a weaker case today, not a stronger case’ — Rips Obama climate report as ‘filled with misstatements contradicted by well-established and well-known scientific papers’ – Prominent Scientist Dr. Botkin, who has studied climate change for 45 years, told the Committee in Q&A: ‘I have been concerned about global warming since 1968 and in the 1980s, it looked like the weight of evidence lent towards human induced climate change, to a significant extant, and since then it’s moved against it.’
Dr. Shaviv, Swartzmann-Medvedi chair in Space Sciences at The Technion in Haifa: ‘The movement of sun affects temps, which influences levels of CO2, & that these levels have risen & fallen for centuries, even before mankind’ — ‘Temperature rise preceded the CO2 rise (long before the industrial revolution) so that the cause & effect Al Gore claims is completely wrong’
Top Swedish Climate Scientist Says Warming Not Noticeable: ‘The warming we have had last a 100 years is so small that if we didn’t have climatologists to measure it we wouldn’t have noticed it at all’ – Award-Winning Dr. Lennart Bengtsson, formerly of UN IPCC: ‘We Are Creating Great Anxiety Without It Being Justified’
UN Scientists Who Have Turned on the UN IPCC & Man-Made Climate Fears — A Climate Depot Flashback Report – Warming fears are the “worst scientific scandal in the history…When people come to know what the truth is, they will feel deceived by science and scientists.” – UN IPCC Japanese Scientist Dr. Kiminori Itoh, an award-winning PhD environmental physical chemist.
‘Some of the most formidable opponents of climate hysteria include politically liberal physics Nobel laureate, Ivar Giaever; Freeman Dyson; father of the Gaia Hypothesis, James Lovelock — ‘Left-center chemist, Fritz Vahrenholt, one of the fathers of the German environmental movement’
Yet Another Dissenter: Scientist gets ‘involuntary gag reflex’ when he hears science is ‘settled’ — ‘Anyone who thinks the science of this complex thing is settled is in Fantasia’ – ‘Prof. Murry Salby, chair of climate at Macquarie University, has unleashed on global warming alarmism’: ‘Warmth tends to produce more CO2, rather than vice versa’ ‘His findings have been peer reviewed and accepted for publication’ — More here.
Another Dissenter: Scientist breaks silence: ‘Frightened at exaggerations’ of global warming –‘Funding for climate research only going to ‘true believers’ — ‘Indoctrinated with abuse of language’ – Aussie physicist Prof. Brian J O’Brien: No senior scientists were independent’ in the field…An Aussie prof. of physics told him he ‘completely’ supported his concern but had to keep his team of 65 researchers going with work, and ‘the only funding I can get for them and to get their PhDs is greenhouse funding’
Another Dissenter: Aussie Scientist: ‘I’m a skeptic and proud’ — Current Co2 levels are ‘in geological terms the lowest that we’ve actually had in earth’s history’ – Palaeontologist Dr. Geoff Deacon: ‘If you’re going to say that we actually have man-made global warming that has a runaway greenhouse where sea levels are rising faster than ever, absolutely not’
