About Dr. Ed Berry
Berry is an American Meteorology Society Certified Consulting Meteorologist (CCM) and an experienced expert witness with a 100% success rate in winning lawsuits.
In 2011, he helped defeat the Our Children’s Trust climate petition in the Montana Supreme Court that was the predecessor to Held v Montana.
His popular book, Climate Miracle, is about how to win a climate change debate or lawsuit.
His peer-reviewed publications prove nature, not human CO2, causes the increase in atmospheric CO2, proving the climate myth is false.
In 2020, the State of Montana blacklisted and censored Dr. Berry to prevent him from helping Montana defeat the critical Held v Montana climate lawsuit.
Education and experience
- Berry is a graduate of Caltech, Dartmouth, and the University of Nevada.
- In high school, he scored a perfect 800 on the SAT while finishing in half the allotted time.
- Later, he scored 100% in the Selective Service exam, finishing in half the allotted time.
- As a Caltech student, Berry was in the AFROTC pilot program. The AF gave him an honorable discharge when Congress reduced its budget for pilots.
- As a Teaching Fellow in Physics at Dartmouth, Berry studied the Philosophy of Science and Markov Chains under John Kemeny, a former special assistant to Albert Einstein
- Berry’s first climate physics publication, in 1963, corrected a common error in climate textbooks.
- His 1965 PhD thesis was a breakthrough in cloud physics that shows how fast rain forms in convective clouds with different cloud droplet nuclei. Today, climate models use his work to estimate rainfall.
- According to the then DRI Director, Berry’s PhD thesis “put Nevada’s Desert Research Institute on the map.”
- Berry’s PhD mentor, Friedwart Winterberg — the best student of Physics Nobel Laureate Werner Heisenberg — wrote that Berry was his best student.
- Berry was Chief Scientist for Nevada’s Desert Research Institute Airborne Research Program. He led research flights through Sierra Nevada wave clouds, ice storms, Alberta hailstorms, and Yellowstone geysers.
- Berry is a USA certified pilot with single engine land, glider, and instrument ratings.
- Berry was the only citizen consultant to DOD’s top-secret weather modification project in Southeast Asia.
- Berry was the National Science Foundation Program Manager for the significant METROMEX project that showed how large cities modify their local climate.
- Berry showed the FAA how to stop airline accidents caused by severe downdrafts.
- As an expert defense witness in a high-profile murder trial, Berry defeated the two California AGs with his interactive courtroom software, which won the People’s Choice Award in a Microsoft Windows World Open software contest.
- Berry’s 2019, 2021, and 2023 publications prove nature, not human CO2, controls the CO2 level.
- His climate physics publications have over 1600 citations.
- As a U of Nevada PhD candidate, his athletic performance made him a member of the Sigma Delta Psi athletic honorary.
- He is a world and national champion in centerboard sailing.
- He placed in the top ten in USA age-group run-bike-run and senior track events.
- He presently holds the world records in Concept2 rowing for age 85-89 for 100m, 500m, and 1min events.
