    Well using the word "corruption" depends on what you regard as "science".

    Even using the word "Science" here grants it undue credit. It's a
    hoax, propaganda BEGINNING WITH the fairy tale that the earth
    is even warm, or that it would be a bad thing if it got warmer.

    Specify what you mean by "warm".

    And a physicist (OMG, he got a Nobel Prize) pontificating on climate science
    is about as interesting as the weatherman pontificating on string theory.

    As a former climate scientist I disagree in principle. Many people in my field came from
    other disciplines, engineering, mathematics, physics, chemistry. While there is a lot of
    information to pick up, anyone with a solid grasp of classical physics and mathematics
    has a good start on the field (a limited amount of QM helps as well).

    However, he claims that clouds will prevent GW. Not only does this not seem to be happening, but
    clouds have been a part of general circulation models for over 40 years now (and to some degree
    before then). I myself worked on implementing a cloud model in a GCM in the early
    1980s.

    So he must be claiming that these models are wrong, and that he has the only correct physical
    model of clouds. Well, if so, let him present, let him publish. He has plenty of time to get an
    abstract into the American Geophysical Union conference in December, where he can present
    and defend his work. If that's too rushed, there are other conferences, or AGU in 2024.

    If he is honest, he will present. One of the people mentioned in the link also had a climate
    model that allegedly showed the temperature to be relatively insensitive to CO2 levels.
    We are still waiting for that one, though he is long retired.

    His submission would certainly be accepted by AGU. I've attended talks by Singer,
    McIntyre, and Reed Bryson, to name three "skeptics". (To be precise, the Bryson talk was at NASA). He'd best come prepared to answer questions, though.

    If he doesn't present his work, then indeed he is just pontificating.

    Not that I have anything against bridge-priests.

    Nothing has changed. The Holocene is colder than the Eemian,
    sea level today is significantly lower.

    ...during the Eemian, roughly 130,000 years before human
    civilization, it was hotter. There was less ice. There was what
    is called thermal expansion. Sea level was roughly 5 meters
    higher -- about 16 feet or a little more.

    Presently the earth is colder than was experienced during the
    Medieval Warm Period or even the Roman Warm Period. It's
    colder than about 5k years ago, what is generally regarded as
    the period of "Climate Optimum"... that's when it ended, btw.

    The 5k years ago is when it ended.
