What If Everything You Thought About CO2 Was Wrong?
In my web browsing today, I stumbled upon a video posted yesterday by Robin Horsley, which is based on my work. I was impressed with the simple, beautiful and convincing way he presents my findings, and goes beyond them to what they mean, in just 8 minutes.
I didn’t know Robin Horsley, but the video intrigued me and I found some information he gives about himself.
His video, which is linked below, is an honour for me and I am grateful to him.
The youtube page gives the following description of the video.
‘What If Everything You Thought About CO₂ Was Wrong?’ dives deep into one of the most provocative challenges to the mainstream climate narrative. For decades, we’ve been told that human-generated CO₂ is the leading cause of global warming, driving apocalyptic policies and shaping global agendas. But what if this foundational belief is flawed?
This film explores groundbreaking research by Professor Demetris Koutsoyiannis, who argues that rising CO₂ levels are not the cause of global warming but its consequence. Supported by historical ice core data and natural processes, his findings raise serious questions about the simplistic story we’ve been fed for years. The film examines natural CO₂ emissions from oceans and decaying plant life, which account for 96% of the total, leaving human contributions as a mere 4%. It challenges long-held assumptions about CO₂’s role as a greenhouse gas and casts doubt on the effectiveness of Net Zero policies, which could cost up to $150 trillion by 2050. What if these funds could be better spent mitigating the effects of climate change or eradicating poverty and disease?
This isn’t about denying climate change; it’s a call to scrutinise the science driving monumental decisions. Are we solving the right problem, or simply following a narrative that benefits the few at an unimaginable cost?

Decline in total energy production key factor in German CO2 reduction, not renewables
The reduction of CO2 emissions in Germany by approximately 46% in the years 2007–2023 was not the result of a simple substitution of coal with renewable sources. It was primarily conditioned by a drastic drop in the total amount of energy produced.
Lindzen, Happer and Koonin: remove ‘Trojan Horse’ from the courtroom
A new edition of a science education manual for judges departs “sharply” from a “longstanding tradition of neutrality,” say three of America’s most distinguished physicists in a letter to U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts.
“Complete elimination of all ruminants would reduce temperature by only 0.05°C”
In a recent lecture prof. William Happer showed that even the complete elimination of all ruminants would reduce global temperatures by only about 0.05°C. The effect is so small that it calls into question the justification for aggressive mitigation policies targeting these methane producing animals, like cows.
