That bolded part is conjecture, Ludwig. You didn’t prove it.

OK… then what exactly is is motivation then?

If he is doing this out of his pure love of science that he thinks has gone wrong, why does he not do what every other scientist (who is not a paid shill) does in that position and publish his objections in a meaningful and peer reviewed way?

Why would someone who is not a climate scientist and has no connection to the field professionally, make such obvious errors in his arguments and overlook such basic science in his statements> Of course he knows the basic science. Of course he could look up the hard core climate science. Why damage an otherwise stirling reputation saying such nonsense?

Why would he be the one exception to the other people at Heartland and Cato who do get paid to say the same stuff?

What do you think the answer is if he is not getting paid?
