Chris Martz, MU Meteorology ‘25
Chris has been absolutely blowing up X (Twitter) educating the world on how climate actually works. So I had to have him on. We chatted how good our historical temperature data really is, how good the more recent data and climate models, and what we can actually prove in laboratory. Needless to say Chris doesn’t think the world is ending anytime soon if the climate is changing a little bit.
