Dr. Willie Soon: “CO2 is plant food, not a pollutant”
On October 17, 2025, CERES co-team leader, Dr. Willie Soon, gave a presentation at Hillsdale College’s 19th Annual Free Market Forum in North Carolina. In this video, we show Dr. Soon’s presentation that was entitled, “The importance of fossil fuels and CO2: A scientific perspective”.

Glacier fluctuations don’t yet support recent anthropogenic warming
Holocene glacier records show that glaciers worldwide reached their greatest extent during the Little Ice Age and were generally smaller during earlier warm periods. While glacier length is a valuable long-term regional climate indicator, the evidence does not clearly support the idea of uniform, synchronous global warming.
Challenges to the CO2 Global Warming Hypothesis: (13) Global Warming Entirely from Declining Planetary Albedo
Is the recent warming the result of less reflection of sunlight by the Earth? Two researcher state that declining albedo — not CO₂ — dominates the temperature trend.
Guardian Claims We’re Still Only Approaching the Climate Point of No Return
The Guardian claims the world is edging toward a climate “point of no return,” where unstoppable warming will lock Earth into a catastrophic “hothouse” future. Yet the geological record tells a very different story. Past periods of far higher temperatures and CO₂ levels did not end life or civilization’s prospects — they supported abundance and evolutionary expansion.
