[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy) Now this, the United Nations has withdrawn their worst case conclusion on climate.

[0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=5) Now, they had been thinking that temperatures would go up by eight degrees Fahrenheit by the end of this century, and that the polar ice caps would melt completely.

[0:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=14) Daniel Turner is with us this morning. I thought that UN declaration, that they've abandoned that, that forecast, I thought that was a very big deal for climate science. It really was.

[0:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=24) But, but I think there needs to be a reckoning because this wasn't just a, a, a mistake in, in climate calculations or in science.

[0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=31) There are whole countries that destroyed their economies.

[0:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=34) The UK shut down the, the, the North Sea, uh, oil and gas, right?

[0:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=38) We have entire nations that have crippled themselves and made themselves energy poor because of climate change.

[0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=43) And not only that, generationally, how many young children have grown up with real climate anxiety that are convinced they're gonna die?

[0:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=49) They did... These scientists, for political reasons, did great, great damage to the world, and it's not enough for them to say, "Oops, we made a mistake."

[0:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=57) There needs to be a reckoning for this. Well, what, what would be a reckoning?

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=59) What would it be? They lose all of their funding.

[1:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=62) They are, they are discredited. They have to offer formal statements.

[1:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=65) They should be forced to go around to schools and tell young people, "You don't have to be worried about climate change."

[1:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=69) You know that's not gonna happen. Of course not.

[1:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=71) But, but it's not enough to just say, "Hey, we made a mistake."

[1:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/OmqOshCLluHu/en/daniel-turner-discusses-un-climate-forecast-claim-and-energy-policy?t=74) And they did these, they did this for political calculations, and that's what's wrong.
