Jonathan Cohler/Willie Soon: Climate Science Lies and Artificial Intelligence | Tom Nelson Pod #170 Nov 14, 2023

Show notes

Graduated in 1980 from Harvard in Physics. Phi Beta Kappa. David McCord Prize.

Since the 2010s, I have guest lectured occasionally in the physics department at Harvard

Since the late 1990s, I have been keenly interested in the developing disinformation campaign often known as "climate science." I read extensively in this area.

In recent years, I have taken an interest in investigating so-called "AI" software, and the planned total take-over of public discourse by the big tech companies and their co-conspirators in our current government.

Willie Soon: Bad Data: Are NASA, NOAA and EPA Violating the Data Quality Act? | Tom Nelson Pod #169 Nov 10, 2023

Show notes

Dr. Willie Soon, an astrophysicist and geoscientist, is a leading authority on the relationship between solar phenomena and global climate. In this 32+ years of singular pursuit, he seeks to understand the Sun-Earth relations in terms of not only meteorology and climate, but also in terms of orbital dynamics of Sun-Earth-other planets interactions, magmatic (volcanoes) and tectonic (earthquakes) activities. His discoveries challenge computer modelers and advocates who consistently underestimate solar influences on cloud formation, ocean currents, and wind that cause climate to change. He has faced and risen above unethical and often libelous attacks on his research and his character, becoming one of the world's most respected and influential voices for climate realism. In 2018, he founded the Center for Environmental Research and Earth Sciences (CERES-science.com) in order to tackle a wider range of issues and topics without fears nor prejudices.

Yonatan Dubi: Biases in the Knowledge System | Tom Nelson Pod #167 Nov 07, 2023

Show notes

Full professor of theoretical chemistry, Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Israel

The current system of knowledge dissemination, including research, synthesizers, disseminators, and evaluators, is impacted by inherent biases and implications of political agendas. Also mentioned: how universities are being influenced to align with certain global sustainability goals, touching upon funding, academic freedom, and potential manipulation of consensus.
