Israeli attacks leave at least 20 dead in Gaza
By Rodrigo Santos Andrade
This week’s Newsmaker features an interview with physicist Steve Koonin, author of Unsettled, who argues that the "climate change Armageddon narrative" is starting to unravel, as people increasingly question the claims of an existential crisis.
Koonin, a former undersecretary for science in the Obama administration, asserts that while humans are influencing the climate, the data and official projections—even those from the Biden White House and the IPCC’s working group reports—do not support the notion of an immediate peril or economic catastrophe, suggesting aggressive mitigation strategies may be misdirected.
He discusses the growing energy needs of the developing world and AI, the marginalization of dissenting voices in academia, the historical inaccuracy of apocalyptic climate predictions, and the tendency of journalists and policymakers to rely on simplified, "spun" summaries of the climate science instead of the detailed, nuanced data.
