Yeah.

Yeah.

Get down to 160, 150, all life would die.

There would be not enough food for anything.

Interesting question.

Actually...

Quite a lot, but I mean it took very funny forms.

So for instance, in, let's see, 1989 for instance, I sent a paper to Science Magazine questioning whether this is something to worry about.

And they sent it back immediately saying there was no interest.

So I sent it to the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, and they reviewed it and published it, and the editor was immediately fired.

About 10 years later, working with some colleagues at NASA, we found something called the iris effect that,

Clouds, which were greenhouse effect at upper levels, contracted when it got warm, letting more heat out, so cooling, as a negative feedback.

And we got the paper, put it, got reviewed, it was published.

Again, the editor was fired immediately.

But the new editor came on immediately and said, he's inviting papers to criticize it.

And suddenly there were tons of papers criticizing it, looking for anything that differed from what we did, including one that found a difference that actually made the CO2 even less important, but it was different, so he thought he could pass it through.

No, it's insane.

And even now, there's something called gatekeepers.

I don't know.

Are you familiar with the release of emails from East Anglia?
