In yet another example of the squelching of scientific debate by those advocating for the position that dangerous anthropogenic global warming is a cosmic threat, Dr. Katharine Hayhoe, climate scientist, has been found twitter-blocking fellow scientists who have the audacity to ask her to support her views on the greenhouse effect.
For over a year now, physical scientist Dr. Ned Nikolov has been enthusiastically debating anyone and everyone on his twitter page who wishes to challenge his conclusions on the mechanisms that set macro planetary temperatures.
Frequently referencing the comprehensive explanations found in their 2017 scientific paper, New Insights on the Physical Nature of the Atmospheric Greenhouse Effect Deduced from an Empirical Planetary Temperature Model (Nikolov and Zeller, 2017), Dr. Nikolov has garnered a reputation for responding openly and directly to each serious query or objection to his views.
Casual observers of his twitter page may notice that Nikolov does not shrink away from defending his theories. He invites debate and challenges to his climate theories.
The intriguing empirical planetary temperature model he espouses is one of the featured presentations at this weekend’s Basic Science of a Changing Climate conference in Porto.

In direct contrast to the openness to debating ideas and the scientific method, Dr. Katharine Hayhoe, a climate scientist who believes that up to 123% of climate change is caused by humans, has taken to twitter-blocking scientists like Dr. Nikolov.
Why? Because he dared to ask her to discuss the basics of the greenhouse effect with him.
Hayhoe apparently finds it threatening to debate scientists who disagree with her about the role of greenhouse gases – or human activity – on climate.
Is silencing those who challenge one’s views now accepted practice among climate scientists? Apparently so.

123%???? How can that be?
CCDS – Climate Change Derangement Syndrome in parallel with TDS. WHY?? That’s the question. This is the opposite of the 60’s – Make War not Love. There has been a psychological change in a large number of people in Western Society. Why do they not question? Why do they blindly accept? I’d love to see Dr. Jordan Peterson tackle this.
CCDS? The Big Bad Pleasure Machine, Capitalism, is #winning. The global warming fraud was designed to drive human behaviour toward Socialism. It might have worked, but China mocked the Paris climate accord. Trump pointed out the farce and turned the tide. No one likes to get duped. No one wants to shiver in the dark.
This scam will stick to the Left like skunk spray.
Correct Sonny: Its the Apocalypse ‘du jour.’ Global freezing, acid rain, ozone holes etc. The polls show the majority now ignoring CC. It is mostly a media ‘tempest in a teapot.’ The real danger is increased costs of energy in the West making imports more expensive vs the East retaining cheap fossil fuel costs and also with their cheap labor this sets up a massive global shift in economic power.
If Trump can make the masses understand this as you have referred to (freeze in the dark) the Alarmists will be regulated to the dustbin of history.
Cheers
It appears that, in the world Katharine Hayhoe inhabits, “the fat lady has sung” and that means that the show is over. (HT: Yogi Berra – “It ain’t over till the fat lady sings.”)
Al Gore will never ever debate his crack-pot theory because he dont want to be proven the conman he is like with Don Johansen and his LUCY which is nothing but chimps skeleton most hoaxers dont want to debate their ideas to the public and no one thata liberal idiot would want to hear Al Gores idiotic poem as well
This is the norm for Democrats and hard nose environmentalist. They claim tolerance but have none related to other points of view. They accuse everyone who does not believe the way they do all kind of names, but in real world they are the intolerant ones. The rational ones scientist want an open debate with the inrational ones but with their story of science is falling apart at every level including their fake and removal of data to reach their “doom and gloom.” No debate about climate change is not science but all bluster and nonsense. I am not sure why so many follow the likes of Gore, Nye and others over this policy of doom and gloom because only the big boys will be receiving large payback with “trading carbon shares.” It is all about the money.
