Yes. Hansen is quite convincing on his nuclear stance, which is sadly ignored.
Net zero energy exclusively from renewable resources is a dangerous and delusional pathway.
As for the climate backcasting, it's all theory. There's no way to even get a confidence interval on the estimates because there is no way to witness the actual events that they extrapolate from.
- DennisP 4y agoSeveral independent lines of geologic evidence all point to a similar climate sensitivity (see Hansen). Some fairly basic physics does the same, and physicists back to 1896 predicted our current reality pretty well. The recent book The Physics of Climate Change by Lawrence Krauss covers that in detail.
