class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Veteran climate expert Dr. Richard Lindzen made a name for himself before the fundamentally flawed field of climate science that we know today was invented. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In an interview with the pioneering atmospheric physicist and former emeritus professor of meteorology at MIT, he recounted events that occurred in the 1980s, which gave birth to the all-consuming climate change narrative that prevails today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having begun his research on climate change in the mid-70s motivated by a sincere interest in understanding the Earth&#8217;s climate regimes, Lindzen&#8217;s assessment of the various elements paraded as scientific evidence of an impending climate catastrophe is remarkably sensible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What&#8217;s particularly revealing from his recollection of events is how complicit the media and politicians have been in forcing the disastrous climate change narrative upon an unsuspecting and trusting public from the very beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">TIMESTAMPS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
