Program: John Lindsey/PG&E Chief Meteorologist (Marine Meteorologist)
Connie introduced John who has a weather watch column weekly in the SLO Tribune and is known by many for his presence on social media, and in the radio sharing weather. He was a former Air Crewman in the US Navy.His hero is "Arrhenius" a Swedish physical chemist and physicist. He discussed climate change including receding of the Glaciers in Alaska and warmer temperatures resulting in earlier blooms of cherry blossoms in Japan as one example. Ice melting in areas of the world are causing increases in the depth of the ocean.
Sea levels are rising. Extreme weather changes, droughts, increased wild fires and warmer temps. There are many changes happening due to variations in our climate. "Historically temperatures and changes of this magnitude have occurred over thousands of years, not over a few decades. That's why we need energy sources that produce electricity free of greenhouse gases. Nuclear power provides more clean electricity than any other source and helps our state and nation combat climate change. Diablo Power Plant has operated safely since 1985 with its two pressurized water reactors (PWR) units. The two units produce for 18,000 gigawatt hours of clean, carbon-free electricity. John has a passion for clean energy and is able to provide accurate swell and weather forecasts by using many oceanographic instruments that collect data. "We are responsible for climate change."-John Lindsey
