This article says: ‘Chapter 7, which covers Dr. Nikolov and Dr. Zeller’s (N&Z) new thermodynamic climate paradigm, is the most important part of the book.’ Researchers including N&Z have also pointed out that the temperature of any planetary body with a significant atmosphere can be computed to a high degree of accuracy, using only solar input (scientifically adjusted for a body’s distance from the Sun) and a pressure of 1 bar – no ‘greenhouse’ theory required.

Professor Throne’s new book debunks the CO2 climate narrative and explains why fossil fuels don’t drive global warming, says Climate Change Dispatch.
. . .
Unsurprisingly, the UN’s IPCC receives significant scrutiny. Its work is based on the greenhouse effect, where heat radiation from greenhouse gases is said to drive global warming—a concept called “radiative forcing.”

Throne argues that this violates the laws of thermodynamics. Nobel laureate John Clauser even calls the greenhouse theory “pseudoscience.”
. . .
Hoax! challenges the IPCC’s claim that Earth’s 15°C average temperature results from a 33°C greenhouse effect. Throne points out two major errors: first, the Earth is round, not a flat disk; second, comparisons must be made with the Moon, which has no atmosphere. Accounting for these factors, the actual atmospheric effect could be as high as 90°C.

Researchers Dr. Nikolov and Dr. Zeller have conducted extensive analyses that refute the greenhouse theory, instead proposing a thermodynamic climate paradigm in which albedo, atmospheric pressure, and solar radiation are key to accurately calculating global temperature.

Chapter 7, which covers Dr. Nikolov and Dr. Zeller’s (N&Z) new thermodynamic climate paradigm, is the most important part of the book.
