Dr. Ned Nikolov obtained his Ph.D. Degree in ecosystem modeling from Colorado State University in 1997. He then spent 3 years as a post-doctorate researcher at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, TN. Since 2001, he has been working as a physical scientist in one capacity or another for a project funded by the US Forest Service focused on developing of fire-weather applications based on historical climatological data and producing operational fire-weather forecasts to assist the wildfire- and smoke management in the USA. He has been conducting climate research since 2011.

William (Will) Happer, the Cyrus Fogg Bracket Professor of Physics and one of the pioneers in the field of optically polarized atoms, transferred to emeritus status at the end of the 2014 academic year. Will is known for developing rigorous theories to analyze his elegant atomic physics experiments as well as for extensive service to Princeton and the U.S. government. His research has initiated several vibrant fields outside of atomic physics.

He has published over 200 scientific papers. He is a fellow of the American Physical Society and American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society. He was awarded the 1997 Broida Prize and the 1999 Davisson-Germer Prize of the American Physical Society.

In this episode, Will Happer discusses the controversial and often politically charged field of climate science, critiquing its strong alignment with political agendas and the suppression of dissenting voices. He expresses hope for more rigorous scientific reviews and red team analyses under new leadership, drawing parallels to historical examples of scientific suppression and resilience. Happer also highlights his own scientific achievements, including the development of adaptive optics using sodium guide stars, and underscores the importance of practical experience and genuine scientific inquiry in fostering a more scientifically literate society.

Steve Goreham is an informative and engaging speaker, delivering compelling and provocative programs to businesses, universities, and diverse organizations. Steve is an independent scholar, researcher, and futurist in the fields of energy and environmental policy, as well as a former engineer and business executive with 30 years of experience at Fortune 100 and private companies. He’s Executive Director of the Climate Science Coalition of America and a policy advisor to The Heartland Institute.

Steve is author of four books on energy, climate change, sustainability, and public policy with over 100,000 copies in print.

In this episode, Steve Goreham discusses the controversies and outcomes surrounding the recent COP 29 climate conference, and criticizes the effectiveness and practicality of current climate policies and renewable energy initiatives. He argues that global efforts to curb CO2 emissions and switch to renewable energy have largely been ineffective, costly, and sometimes counterproductive, citing examples such as the increase in extreme weather-exposed renewable installations and the significant electrical demands posed by emerging technologies like AI. Goreham also predicts a future pushback against these green policies, driven by their economic and practical shortcomings, leading to a return to more reliable and low-cost energy sources.

About Tom: https://tomn.substack.com/about

David Hilderman has a Bachelor of Applied Sciences in Electronic Information Systems Engineering from the University of Regina and has worked in the electronics industry since graduation in 1988.

David grew up in Saskatchewan, the second oldest in a family of six boys. Since 2000 he has lived in beautiful Saanichton British Columbia, raising two great kids with his lovely wife. He went to the Victoria area to combine his engineering experience and love of music production to work for TC-Helicon, a company that makes products for performing musicians. He worked there for 19 years, five of which were in the role of Chief Operating Officer.

Early 2020 he became aware of the fact that sea level rise rates were not accelerating. In Victoria, the rate of rise has not changed over the entire record since 1909 and is only 0.75mm/yr. This began his research in other climate alarmist claims. Reality is so counter to the narrative and the consequences of acting on the narrative are so detrimental that he felt he needed to do something about it.

In 2021 he ran in the federal election against the Green Party incumbent, Elizabeth May, and had the opportunity to debate her on the issue of climate five times. He continues to be active in his community, working to educate people on the benefits of increasing atmospheric CO2.
