Is Dr. Willie Soon in the pay of the fossil fuel industry?
Dr. Willie Soon is a scientist who has been actively researching the causes of climate change since the 1990s. He has published more than 100 peer-reviewed scientific articles on the subject.
However, his findings often contradict the dogmatic claims made by many media outlets, politicians and scientific organizations. Specifically, his research suggests that recent climate change seems to be mostly natural, rather than strictly human-caused. This has made him a very inconvenient scientist for some people.
For this reason, in 2015, a former Greenpeace activist, Kert Davies, decided to turn Dr. Soon into a “climate villain” and asserted that he was in the pay of the fossil fuel industry. Davies’ smear campaign was picked up uncritically by many high-profile media outlets, including the New York Times, Washington Post and the Boston Globe.
Here, Dr. Soon responds to this hatchet job and the ensuing witch-burning he experienced. He proves his innocence and highlights the hypocrisy of some of those who repeated the baseless smears against him without any investigation.
Clip taken from Dr. Soon’s April 11, 2022 talk at Hillsdale College in D.C., “The Weaponization of Science: Politics, Vilification, and the Climate Debate”.
