Challenging the UN on Climate: Friends of Science Society's 24th Year of Advocacy
Friends of Science Society, an independent organization of scientists and citizens, is marking its 24th year by challenging the UN group "Friends of Science" on climate and Net Zero targets. Clintel, the climate intelligence partner of Friends of Science Society, initiated a call for debate in 2019, which gained significant attention. The organization's global network of over 2,000 scientists and scholars is eager to engage in open discussions with the UN group. Clintel's representatives, including Dr. Matthew Wielicki and Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt, have been vocal about the challenges associated with Net Zero targets and climate change.
The documentary "Global Warning" by Canadian filmmaker Mathew Embry sheds light on the perspectives of climate activists and scientific experts like Prof. Vahrenholt. The film captures the concerns raised by Vahrenholt regarding wind farms and their impact on wildlife and energy poverty. Prime Minister Carney's emphasis on Canada's energy resources and the need for regulatory reforms to drive investment are highlighted in the film. Despite differing views on climate change, the debate continues between activists like Catherine Abreu and scientists like Dr. Ian Clark.
The fear of a climate emergency, fueled by the unrealistic climate scenario RCP 8.5, has been debunked by the official climate modeling community. The demand for climate action is deemed unnecessary as the imaginary emergency is declared over. Friends of Science Society challenges the costly climate policies in Canada, urging a redirection of funds to more practical concerns. With a focus on the sun as the primary driver of climate change, the organization provides insights based on a comprehensive review of climate change literature.
As Friends of Science Society celebrates its 24th year, the organization remains committed to providing valuable insights on climate science and engaging in meaningful debates on climate-related issues. Through its network of scientists and scholars, Friends of Science Society continues to advocate for a balanced and evidence-based approach to understanding climate change.
