James Kamis:  Warm blobs generated by geological activity | Tom Nelson Pod #363

James Kamis discusses his theory that oceanic warm blobs, such as the one in the northern Pacific Ocean, are primarily caused by geological activities like underwater volcanic eruptions and tectonic movements rather than atmospheric conditions. Drawing on evidence from recent high-resolution ocean floor mapping and historical data on seismic and volcanic activities, Kamis highlights the significant role of geological features in heating ocean waters. He also challenges the mainstream view held by NASA and NOAA, advocating for a more comprehensive consideration of geological factors in climate studies.

John Droz: “Teaching critical thinking in K-12” | Tom Nelson Pod #360

John Droz, an independent physicist with over 40 years of experience in state and national issues, discusses the severe deficiencies in the K-12 education system, particularly the infiltration of left-leaning propaganda and the suppression of critical thinking. He highlights the adoption of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) by 49 states, which he argues undermine the traditional scientific method and promote conformity. Droz proposes a solution involving the formal teaching of critical thinking in K-12 education and a reformation of the Federal Department of Education to serve an advisory role rather than a regulatory one.

Ronald Stein:  “Transition to Renewables is a Globalist Suicide Pact” | Tom Nelson Pod #347

Ronald Stein argues that transitioning to renewable energy is impractical as wind and solar power can only generate electricity and can't replace the diverse products and fuels derived from fossil fuels, which support modern civilization. He stresses that crude oil derivatives are vital for producing more than 6,000 everyday products and for powering various transportation modes crucial for global logistics. Stein advocates for continued use and more efficient consumption of fossil fuels until a viable, adequate substitute is found to maintain global living standards and infrastructure.

Gilles Bourgeois:  “Flat-Earth Cold Sun Religion” | Tom Nelson Pod #345

Gilles Bourgeois argues that the greenhouse effect is a deceptive construct and not based on real science. He emphasizes the importance of objectivity and rational egoism over mysticism, particularly in the context of climate change discourse. Bourgeois presents scientific principles and philosophical ideas, primarily referencing Ayn Rand and Aristotelian logic, to counter what he terms 'climate religion' and advocate for a clearer, rational understanding of science and morality.
