Australia’s Climate Science SCANDAL Is Bigger Than You Think | Ep 251

from The Dr Jo Show · host Dr Joanna Howe

In this episode, I sit down with Professor Peter Ridd, the scientist who exposed the truth about the Great Barrier Reef and paid an enormous price for refusing to stay silent. Peter explains why the reef is thriving, how peer review entrenches academic groupthink, and why universities punish researchers who challenge fashionable orthodoxies. We discuss his dismissal, his High Court battle for academic freedom, the institutional incentives driving climate alarmism, Covid-era deception, and the need for a constitutional right to free speech. Peter’s story proves that courage, evidence and principle can still confront Australia’s most powerful institutions—and win decisively.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate
