Dr. Ian Clark: A Reality Check on Climate and Net Zero

When he began teaching about the ice ages at the start of his career, Dr. Ian Clark stressed the link between rising CO2 and 20th century climate warming. However, closer examination of the subject and new science convinced him that climate was far more complex with other more important factors. Despite the considerable number of scientists who share the view that CO2 is NOT causing dangerous climate change, western democracies are on a road to become carbon neutral, Net Zero, by 2050. His talk will review what we know and do not know about climate and assess the potential to achieve net zero with hydro, wind, solar and the most controversial source of reliable power, nuclear. Dr. Clark also hosted Friends of Science Society's 2008 documentary “Climate Catastrophe Cancelled.“ You can watch that here: Please join or donate to Friends of Science.
