What Women Must Know- The Great Barrier Reef is Thriving - Climate Change Is Not What You Think with Peter Ridd

The Great Barrier Reef is Thriving - Climate Change Is Not What You Think with  Peter Ridd

Peter Ridd is a geophysicist with over 100 publications and 35 years’ experience working on the Great Barrier Reef and developed a wide range of world-first optical and electronic instruments for measuring environmental conditions near corals and other ecosystems. He was head, and Professor, of Physics at James Cook University for over a decade before being fired, in 2018, for questioning the quality assurance systems used by reef science institutions. Some of the poor-quality work relates to the effect of climate change, and agriculture, on the reef. Ridd now volunteers his time to the Institute of Public Affairs to improve quality assurance systems of “science” used by Australian governments to make environmental laws and regulations.
