Video: Why are we so worried about ‘climate change’? Once you learn how the panic started, you’ll know you can relax

By David Jones, Climate Realists of B.C., Jan. 23, 2024

Below is the text of meterologist David Jones’ short video (one minute) on the origins of the “climate crisis” scare. It’s on the YouTube channel “Is This Climate Change?”. Click on the video or this link to see the video.

Hi everyone. My name is David Jones. I’m a meteorologist, a climate realist and I have some good news.

1) The weather hasn’t changed and

2) there is no climate emergency.

“We may get to the point where the only way of saving the world will be for industrialized civilization to collapse.”

Is 5,000 ppm of CO2 dangerous for health? No, says a former submariner

Climate Realists of B.C. President Patrick Hunt describes his experiences on a submarine when CO2 levels rose as high as 5,000 parts per million

Patrick Hunt, president of the Climate Realists of British Columbia, discusses the challenges of climate models. During his service with the Canadian Navy, Patrick served on a submarine that had CO2 levels of at 5,000 parts per million of carbon dioxide (CO2), with no ill-effects. After that, he was involved in custom software applications and high-tech.

In this Friends of Science interview, he discusses how climate models are made of “bits and bytes” as opposed to toy models, which are actually physical and made to exact scale of the “real thing.”… Read more
