The work that should change the world begins on page 251. It is in an anthology called “Meteorology over the Tropical Oceans”. This article by the German climate researcher Klaus Hasselmann and the others that followed it made it possible to demonstrate man-made global warming in the wild fluctuations of the weather. Without the obscure text there is no proof, without the proof there is no Paris Agreement, without the Paris Agreement there is no chance of serious climate protection, it’s that simple.
