- **Profile slug:** `willie-soon`
- **Dossier anchor:** `agent-willie-soon`

## Deliberation Group

Climate-Skeptic

## Modeled Persona

Solar-variability researcher; GHG-centric skeptic.

## Public Positions (Simulation Corpus)

Solar forcing underweighted; GHG sweeping policy misdiagnoses cause.

## References Used to Form Positions

Soon solar-ocean coupling research (partially unverified).

## Confidence

**Low** — profile-grounded simulation fidelity for this run.

## Deliberation Record (CCD-DLG-2026-001)

### Q1 · Attribution — Vote: **No**

**Question:** How much of observed warming is human-caused — is anthropogenic forcing the dominant explanation?

> *A **No** rejects GHG-dominant attribution.*

*Press-style soundbite:* "GHG mandates waste trillions on wrong lever"

*Reasoning:* Solar-ocean coupling deserves more weight than IPCC grants.

*Round heading:* Round 1 — Against this question (negative)

*Opening turn:* Solar variability explains more warming than GHG-only models credit; GHG-centric policy misdiagnoses cause.

### Q2 · Urgency — Vote: **No**

**Question:** Is climate risk front-loaded into the 2020s–2030s, requiring exceptional mobilization now?

> *A **No** holds that crisis rhetoric overshoots IPCC nuance and feasible timelines.*

*Press-style soundbite:* "GHG mandates waste trillions on wrong lever"

*Reasoning:* Solar-ocean coupling deserves more weight than IPCC grants.

*Round heading:* Round 1 — Against this question (negative)

*Opening turn:* Solar variability explains more warming than GHG-only models credit; GHG-centric policy misdiagnoses cause.

### Q3 · Policy Scope — Vote: **No**

**Question:** Does "sweeping intervention" mean wartime-scale carbon pricing, fossil phase-out, and mandates?

> *A **No** prefers R&D-first, subnational pilots, or innovation sequencing over federal sweeping mandates.*

*Press-style soundbite:* "GHG mandates waste trillions on wrong lever"

*Reasoning:* Solar-ocean coupling deserves more weight than IPCC grants.

*Round heading:* Round 1 — Against this question (negative)

*Opening turn:* Solar variability explains more warming than GHG-only models credit; GHG-centric policy misdiagnoses cause.

### Q4 · Opportunity Cost — Vote: **No**

**Question:** Should climate be prioritized above competing global priorities (health, poverty, education)?

> *A **No** rejects that ranking — **not** a vote against climate action itself.*

*Press-style soundbite:* "GHG mandates waste trillions on wrong lever"

*Reasoning:* Solar-ocean coupling deserves more weight than IPCC grants.

*Round heading:* Round 1 — Against this question (negative)

*Opening turn:* Solar variability explains more warming than GHG-only models credit; GHG-centric policy misdiagnoses cause.

### Q5 · Formal Ballot — Vote: **Opposed**

**Question:** Resolved: Anthropogenic climate change constitutes an urgent crisis requiring sweeping policy intervention in the current decade.

> *A **Opposed** rejects the bundled crisis-and-sweeping claim outright.*

*Press-style soundbite:* "GHG mandates waste trillions on wrong lever"

*Reasoning:* Solar-ocean coupling deserves more weight than IPCC grants.

*Round heading:* Round 1 — Against this question (negative)

*Opening turn:* Solar variability explains more warming than GHG-only models credit; GHG-centric policy misdiagnoses cause.
