He won a Nobel Prize. Then he started denying climate change

Not the first physics Nobel Prize winner to deny climate change: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivar_Giaever

I guess some physicists already have a tendency to see themselves at the pinicle of science. When winning the prize I guess it really gets to their heads. So weird that they’d get so damn certain about the “truth” in a completely different field from what they’ve studied. As far as I can tell, without engaging much with scientists actually working in that field.

Yes, I'm sure his Prize-winning work on quantum stuff in the 1970's makes him a real expert on climate change today.

It would be useful if people did not treat "Science" and "Noted Scientist" like "Roman Catholic Church" and "Cardinal or Pope". Lawyers are smart and honest enough to preface everything they say about the law, outside of their own little niche specialties, with huge disclaimers. Is there some reason why scientists are so dim or crooked that they won't even aspire to lawyers-level professionalism?

Never ceases to amaze me those who can’t fathom the laws of thermodynamics applying to a scale larger than an oven.

Another great mind lost to Nobel Disease:

Skepticism is fine, but he does not seem to be presenting any evidence or insight -- in other words, he seems to be part of a disinformation campaign.
