### Al Gore, Climate Crisis TED Talk

- **Episode:** [1581: Quippy](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1581-quippy.md)
- **Published:** 2023-08-13
- **Time:** 1:28:27–1:31:50
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1581-quippy/chapter/al-gore-climate-crisis-ted-talk.md

Al Gore returns with a new TED Talk, using a "one slide" presentation to describe the troposphere as an "open sewer" for greenhouse gas pollution. The hosts revisit Gore's history with the carbon exchange and his failed past predictions. They mock his alarmist tone and his description of the atmosphere, noting his continued influence in the climate movement despite scientific inaccuracies.

### NPR Climate Science, Polar Vortex Variability

- **Episode:** [1108: Sarcasm](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1108-sarcasm.md)
- **Published:** 2019-02-01
- **Time:** 8:11–13:45
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1108-sarcasm/chapter/npr-climate-science-polar-vortex-variability.md

A clip from NPR features a NOAA scientist explaining the mechanics of the polar vortex and its relationship to the troposphere. The scientist notes that while the stratospheric vortex has weakened over 30 years, it is unclear if this is due to climate change or long-term natural variability. The hosts highlight the scientist's admission that climate models actually predict fewer cold air outbreaks in the future, contradicting current media alarmism.

### Ham Radio Conditions, Signal Bouncing Experiments

- **Episode:** [748: Lone Rat](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/748-lone-rat.md)
- **Published:** 2015-08-16
- **Time:** 3:00–6:09
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/748-lone-rat/chapter/ham-radio-conditions-signal-bouncing-experiments.md

A new "buddy pole" antenna setup in Austin allowed for global communication on low power, sparking a debate on whether radio signals bounce off meteor clouds or the ionosphere. References are made to historical experiments like the Echo Star balloon and moon-bounce communications to explain long-distance signal propagation.
