He's also obviously not right. ''Projections'' have been revised down because observable reality was so far off from the reasonable confidence interval it was falling off the graph.

A charitable eye could brush this off as chaotic variability for a while, but not for 20+ years after the data started raising skeptic eyebrows.

So if projections were based on incorrect modeling of temperatures and GHG effect ( usually calculated as ''warming per doubling of GHG concentrations'' ( exponential concentration rise leading to linear temperature increase )), then the policies supposed to ''save the planet'' from apocalyptic predictions inspired by those projections no longer have legitimacy.

But the media and government ''expert policy'' hysteria did not go down as projections got revised downwards. Quite the contrary.

Sort of like when the mortality rate of WuFlu came out to be well below 0.2%. The mandates kept getting more insane.

Zero child dying of WuFlu in Sweden for a year despite schools open did not cool the lockdown zealots shutting down buisnesses and schools elsewhere.

( Mind you, you'd expect dozens of children to die of combined colds and flus in a year. It seemed WuFlu just sucked at killing kids. )
