Lindzen has spent 40 years insisting the planet won't warm much. 2024 was the hottest year ever recorded. His signature climate theory collapsed under scientific scrutiny, and Peabody Coal helped fund his work. He didn't forecast the future, he bet against the thermometer and lost.
Every clause holds up: the decades of low-warming claims, 2024 as the hottest year on record, the iris hypothesis refuted by multiple independent studies, and Peabody's backing documented in the company's own court filings.
