Sun, Oceans, and Sea Level: Lindzen on What Climate Models Ignore

Donate: 🙏 https://www.buymeacoffee.com/slobodnipoI In this highlight, Richard Lindzen argues that climate cannot be explained by one single factor — not CO2, and not even the Sun alone. He points instead to oceans as a major neglected driver of climate variability over decades and centuries. Ocean circulation, he says, moves heat in and out of the surface system on many time scales, from El Niño patterns to longer cycles. Lindzen also discusses sea-level rise, arguing that modest rise has been occurring for centuries as Earth continues adjusting after past ice ages. His practical response is old-fashioned and not very theatrical: build and maintain coastal defenses where needed. No apocalypse. No opera. Just engineering.
