As an evaluator, I spent my career estimating energy savings from energy-efficiency programs. We always start with a baseline and then measure the results compared to that baseline.

However, climate change scientists have never agreed on a baseline for measuring increasing temperatures. In fact, scientists won't know how much the planet warmed until they measure temperatures for  20 years. So, if there is no objective standard to measure climate change, how will we know if the planet's temperature increased?

 

This is just one example of the changing goalposts in the energy community.  On today's show, host Dr. Katherine Johnson will discuss these and several others that undervalue nuclear power while over-valuing renewable projects.
