You need to check your knowledge better before asserting stuff. The Moon does not have what is generally meant by a planetary magnetic field. Areas of the crust have very weak magnetic properties but the Moon does not have a dipole field

He has served as Senior Scientist for Climate Studies at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center.

He is known for his satellite-based temperature monitoring work, for which he was awarded the American Meteorological Society’s Special Award.

Perhaps… Dr. David Bellamy. You might not agree with him on his views, but he is the guy who is looking at the outcome of climate change on plants.

UHHH the moon most definitely has a magnetic field. Check again.

He doesn’t seem to realise the Moon has no magnetic field, and can’t therefore interfere with solar radiation to any extent, except at times of solar eclipse.

When it’s obviously a bit less sunny of course.

– erm.

The Telegraph, the Heartland political lobby group and Youtube are not scientific publications, and basically anyone can publish any old rubbish there without any requirement that it be checked by anyone with a clue what they’re talking about.

Kind of reinforces the criticism of Boris, Piers and his ilk if that is the best you can come up with.

Where did you publish your work?
Where can we see your workings?
What statistical methods did you use?
