Pressure Causes Temperature? It’s Time to Climb Down from “Mount Stupid”

Abatify Summary

Nature & Climate Perspective

**Fringe thermodynamic theories challenging radiative forcing threaten the foundational scientific consensus required for validating long-term ecological carbon sequestration. **

Debates questioning greenhouse gas-induced warming undermine the empirical baseline calculations essential for LULUCF and Blue Carbon project methodologies.
Defending peer-reviewed atmospheric physics is critical to maintaining the credibility of ecological restoration frameworks and carbon credit generation.
Unscientific skepticism risks diverting capital away from empirical, nature-based sequestration solutions by muddying the public understanding of planetary warming.

Market & Policy Outlook

**Methodological integrity and alignment with ICVCM Core Carbon Principles depend entirely on adhering to established, peer-reviewed climate science. **

Corporate climate commitments under SBTi and compliance rules under Article 6.4 rely on the consensus of greenhouse gas radiative forcing to validate scope emission metrics.
Alternative physical models, if legitimized, threaten the pricing stability and regulatory compliance structures of global carbon markets.
Strict alignment with ICVCM Core Carbon Principles (CCPs) regarding robust quantification serves as a vital safeguard against unscientific methodology claims in climate finance.

There was a recent weeks-long exchange of emails between many climate people — professional and amateur — regarding the idea that air pressure (in combination with absorbed solar energy) is what causes temperature. There were insults launched at those who refused to believe what a certain physics-trained person says should be a revolution in our […]
