Climate Debrief

Dr. Ganapathy Shanmugam joins Angela Wheeler on Climate Debrief and reflects on his journey from India to a long career in the energy industry. He explains the issues with closed peer-review, struggles with publishing his work, explaining the open-peer review system, and the failures of "green" energy projects.  Drawing on decades of research, he examines fossil fuels, CO₂, and climate science. He also shares his perspective on energy development, environmental challenges, and ongoing scientific debates.https://co2coalition.org/publications...Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube:   / @co2coalition  Website: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram:   / theco2coalition  

Dr. Ganapathy Shanmugam joins Angela Wheeler on Climate Debrief and reflects on his journey from India to a long career in the energy industry. He defends Alex Epstiein's book Fossil Futures, Dr. William Happer's start as a scientist, the extent that crude oil has on our lives, what life would be like without oil-based products, the pressures of ESG on third-world countries, the effects of CO2 up to 10,000 parts per million, and the inaccuracies of modern climate models.  Drawing on decades of research, he examines fossil fuels, CO₂, and climate science. He also shares his perspective on energy development, environmental challenges, and ongoing scientific debates.Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube:   / @co2coalition  Website: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram:   / theco2coalition

Dr. Daniel Nebert joins Angela Wheeler on Climate Debrief to discuss his unexpected path into the climate debate. He is a physician-scientist, geneticist, and retired professor of environmental health at the University of Cincinnati. Over his career, he has published more than 660 scientific papers. In this episode, Dr. Nebert explains why he believes media narratives have influenced modern climate science. He also discusses CO₂, climate claims, and the growing issue of eco-anxiety among young people.X: x.com/CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/Instagram:   / theco2coalition  

In this episode of Climate Debrief, Rob Louw joins Angela Wheeler and offers a detailed look at the greenhouse effect and the role of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere. He explains how radiative transfer works, why additional CO2 produces diminishing warming, and how temperature profiles in the troposphere and stratosphere influence heat loss to space. Louw also discusses feedback mechanisms, the concept of saturation, and the importance of maintaining a balanced perspective when interpreting climate models. By grounding the conversation in physics and engineering principles, he presents a methodical critique of prevailing climate narratives and emphasizes the value of scientific debate.Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

In this episode of Climate Debrief, physicist and former senior scientist at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, Wallace “Wally” Manheimer joins Angela Wheeler as they examine the modern climate crisis narrative through the lens of history. Wally draws parallels between biblical warnings about false prophets and well-documented mass delusions in American history, including the Salem witch trials and McCarthyism. Manheimer argues that contemporary climate alarmism follows a familiar historical pattern. He critiques failed climate predictions, discusses the real-world consequences of fear-driven energy policies, and considers whether a modern “good witch” can bring this long-running panic to an end.Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

In this episode of Climate Debrief, Ed Hoskins joins Angela Wheeler to explain the concept of CO₂ saturation. He argues that the warming effect of carbon dioxide decreases as levels rise. He says future increases will have only a small impact on temperature. Hoskins also discusses global greening, energy policy, and the economic costs of net zero efforts.Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

Join Angela Wheeler and Dick Storm as they talk about why coal remains critical to reliable and affordable electricity as demand grows from re-industrialization and AI. He argues that coal plant closures and heavy reliance on intermittent renewables and natural gas have weakened grid resilience, while coal continues to provide dependable base load power in the U.S. and worldwide.Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

In this episode of Climate Debrief, professional engineer and author, Ron Barmby, joins Angela Wheeler to discuss his book Sunset on Net Zero. He questions the scientific, economic, and engineering basis of global net-zero policies. Drawing on physics, real-world observations, and decades of experience, he argues that CO₂’s warming effect is small and diminishing. He also challenges climate models that rely on unverified assumptions. Barmby warns that many green energy solutions are impractical and that net-zero policies disproportionately harm the poor.Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

Join Angela Wheeler and Graeme Phipps as they challenge the mainstream climate narrative. Drawing on ice core data, geologic history, and real-world observations. Graeme explains why CO₂ may not be driving climate change—and why higher CO₂ levels could actually benefit life on Earth.Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

Join Angela Wheeler and former Dutch Parliamentarian and Geologist Jules de Waart as they discuss the growing divide between independent scientists and major scientific institutions in the climate debate, arguing that decisions are often driven more by power and authority than by evidence and open scientific argument. He reflects on why large numbers of dissenting or skeptical scientists struggle to be heard, and how institutional pressure shapes official climate narratives. Follow us on social media!X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

Join Angela Wheeler as she discusses with Dr. Bruce Everett the fake catastrophes and science being used to dismantle oil companies. Dr. Everett breaks down why a recent Nature article on climate liability falls short scientifically and legally. He challenges claims of catastrophic warming, flawed climate models, and trillion-dollar damage estimates against oil companies. A sharp look at why real science—not climate hysteria—must guide policy and the courts.Follow us on social media! X: x.com/CO2Coalition Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@CO2CoalitionWebsite: co2coalition.org/ Facebook: facebook.com/TheCO2Coalition/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theco2coalition/

Join Angela Wheeler and Princeton Professor Emeritus Dr. William Happer as they discuss the science of CO₂ and the roots of climate fear.
