He should have done his job. He didn’t.
I view the climate alarm as having four phases.
1) From 1988 when Hansen first raised the alarm, thru the founding of UNFCCC and IPCC, to about 2000 one assumed the ‘experts’ were correct.
2) From 2000 to 2010, cracks began to appear in the alarm foundations. If one looked hard at AR4 in 2007, one could find a lot of dodgy stuff in both WG1 and WG2. For example concerning WG1 essay ‘An Awkward Pause’ and concerning WG1 essay ‘No Bodies’, both in ebook Blowing Smoke. This period culminated with the UEA email leaks exposing bad stuff. By 2010 any thinkg person would realize how poor and uncertain the ‘science’ was.
3) From 2010 to 2020, a lot more bad stuff got exposed, Showing how money has completely co-opted alarmist careers. For example, Marcott’s 2013 academic misconduct hockey stick paper in Science. And, none of the alarming predictions over the past 30 years had even begun to come true. The sham stood fully exposed.
4) By 2020 and thereafter, the impossibility the of proposed mitigations got exposed as renewable grid penetration became meaningful, the costs of wind and solar became apparent (still needing subsidies), and the mineral based difficulties of high EV penetration became apparent. There was no viable solution to the non-problem. But the alarmists soldier on nonetheless. Won’t end well for them.
