A man who writes so pessimistically about the climate (and that may be right), we need to know his qualifications to consider it. On his website at his university it says that he has a doctorate, but the subject is not stated.
Would anyone who has information about his background please inform this. We need to know if he is educated and trained in science and statistics to believe this. Without such a background, it can be difficult to take this seriously. We need to be enlightened and often intimidated, but if it is very exaggerated we do not need it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:4643:E6E3:0:5911:FDEB:4569:6903 (talk) 21:54, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
