In 2016, retired Princeton physicist Professor Will Happer accepted an invitation from conspiracy theorist G. Edward Griffin to give a keynote at his conference to talk about the “positive effects of CO2.”
Griffin thinks the science behind global warming is a scam. He also thinks there is “no such thing” as the HIV virus and that some plane contrails are part of a political plot to spray the population with poisons. In an interview at the conference, Happer repeated his well-oiled mantra that "CO2 will be good for the Earth" and how it was "pretty clear we are not going to see dangerous climate change."
Under normal circumstances, you might think that Happer's association with a notorious anti-science conspiracy theorist might not look good on your résumè for a government science committee. However, these are not normal times.
The United States military has repeatedly stated that climate change is a real threat to our national security. So on the subject of climate change, who are you going to believe? The selfless servants who protect our country, or this charlatan?
