Welcome to Blackjay
Our first post of the new year comprises a link to a YouTube video of Jordan Peterson interviewing leading climate scientist Richard Lindzen. Lindzen is no right wing nut job. He is not even a “climate change denier”. He believes some warming of the lower atmosphere may be occurring because of CO2 increase. His beef is the hysterical over-reaction promoted by the media and fund-seeking scientists with talk of “tipping-points”, “run away greenhouse effects” and the like.
On the way he makes some disturbing comments about the bureaucratization of our universities and the sinister, behind-the-scenes control of some scientific journals.
In our view, his measured, sensible commentary should be compulsory viewing for all decision makers and educators.
