CERN Physicist Banned After Discovering Truth About Clouds | Henrik Svensmark
"If you look at the IPCC and you look at the report, you can see that the amount of— I mean, what they attribute to solar influence is more or less zero."
Henrik Svensmark tells the podcast that IPCC assessments attribute negligible recent warming influence to the Sun, arguing this downplays mechanisms involving cosmic rays and clouds. He estimates cosmic-ray-related forcing at roughly 1.5 watts per square metre, which he says would be comparable to the overall anthropogenic estimate shown in the report graphic discussed on air.
