🌎 Storm watch: My chat with climate policy expert Roger Pielke Jr.
My fellow pro-growth/progress/abundance Up Wingers in America and around the world:Headlines portend rising seas, raging storms, and a planet in crisis. It’s easy to feel like the future is something to fear; however, the key to cooling things down isn’t scaling civilization back. If the world wants to cut back on carbon emissions without sacrificing growth, the answer lies in bold innovation. A sustainable tomorrow requires smart energy investment and long-term thinking today.On this episode of Faster, Please! — The Podcast, I chat with Roger Pielke Jr. about the ever-evolving discus...

The Excerpt
Why losing trust in expertise threatens democracy
From “follow the science” during COVID to universities accused of activism, the gap between experts and the public is widening. Roger Pielke Jr. explains why expertise doesn’t just mean a PhD, how media silos deepen divides, and why experts must serve all Americans — not just those who share their politics.

Risky Science Podcast
Climate, Markets and the Limits of Insurability with Dave Jones
In the last episode of Risky Science, we examined skepticism around climate-conditioned catastrophe models with Roger Pielke Jr.—questioning how much weight long-range climate assumptions should carry in near-term insurance and capital decisions.Today’s discussion is a direct counterpoint.My guest is Dave Jones, former California Insurance Commissioner and now director of the Climate Risk Initiative at UC Berkeley Law. His recent article argues that insurance itself has become the clearest early-warning signal of climate risk—describing property insurance as the “canary in the coal mine,” and warning that the canary is already dying.This...

S01E18. Trump sta smantellando la ricerca sul Clima
Prosegue la guerra di Donald Trump contro le stesse risorse che dovrebbero aiutarlo a tutelare il suo Paese, ovvero gli scienziati e i centri di ricerca americani. La Casa Bianca non si limita solo a far carne di porco delle principali istituzioni sanitarie. Sarebbero troppo «Woke» anche le ricerche sul cambiamento climatico, che confermano tutti i giorni le nostre gravi responsabilità. Stavolta è il turno del “National Center for Atmospheric Research” (NCAR). L'allarme si era già diffuso tra gli scienziati del clima durante la riunione annuale dell’”American Geophysical Union” (AGU).Gli americani lo apprendono per la prima volta graz...

Given that Democrats have spent the last 20 years describing climate change as an “existential threat” and making climate policy their highest priority under Biden, one would expect there to be significant prot...

President Biden is pushing through climate regulations at record speed as his administration, activists, and international organizations warn of an impending climate disaster absent drastic policy changes. But as the US pauses exports of liquefied natural gas and attempts to spend over a trillion dollars on climate initiatives, few stop to ask the question, “Is the world really headed towards climate apocalypse?” In short, no. Climate science relies on scenarios, of which there are thousands. However, billionaires, policymakers, and climate forums have ensured that the most extreme, outdated, and implausible scenario is now the global “baseline.” What do climate scientis...

Climate scientist Roger Pielke, Jr joined Rep. Crenshaw to talk about the intersection of climate science and politics. Roger describes what good science looks like and the challenge that climate scientists face with the unbiased reporting of facts. They examine the good and bad projections in the latest IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report and how confident we can feel about carbon emissions impact on sea levels, global temperatures, and extreme weather events. And they discuss how all this data should be interpreted by politicians to craft the energy policies which affect every aspect of our lives.

Camilla-Dorthea Bundgaard: Wokeness, borgerlighed og tolerance
Camilla-Dorthea og Martin tager udgangspunkt i kritikken af et dragshow for børn på Frederiksberg Bibliotek. Men hvad var problemet? Drag er ikke i sig selv seksualiserende, og børnenes forældre havde selv helt frivilligt taget børnene med til udklædningsfesten. Samtalen kredser om balancen imellem på den ene side at afvise den illiberale del af woke-bevægelsen og på den anden side ikke selv at kamme over i en anti-wokeisme, som er tilsvarende illiberal. Camilla-Dorthea taler for, at man bedst går op imod ekstrem wokeisme med en borgerlighed, der insisterer på frisind og rummelighed. Camilla-Do...

Kan klimarådet, selvom det er bundet af klimaloven, tage stilling til, om 70 pct. målet giver mening? Er det ikke meget vidtgående, når klimarådet anbefaler, at alle verdensborgere skal udlede lige meget, og bør alle så også have samme indkomst? Er menneskeskabte klimaforandringer et eksistentielt problem? Truer det menneskehedens eller klodens overlevelse? Befinder vi os i en klima-krise, eller bør man anvende et mindre alarmistisk udtryk?

He is most known for his work on climate, and specifically extreme weather events. For this he initially got much acclaim, and his research has been cited in the IPCC assessment reports. But the last fifteen years or so this work has also given him many adversaries. Why? Because he tells what the science shows.

As Millan shares, the international scientific community has known for fifty years that anthropogenic climate change has two legs: greenhouse gases and surface property changes due to land use change. While business and politics have assimilated the greenhouse gas narrative, addressing the climate effects of o...
