Tim was born in England where he studied physics and math at Exeter University. He then came Canada to complete a PhD in nuclear physics at the University of Alberta. After temporary positions in Indiana, TRIUMF, McGill, and Surrey University, he started his career at Ohio State University.
In 1992, he transferred to the University College of the Fraser Valley, which is now the University of the Fraser Valley. Tim taught for many years, winning the faculty of science teaching prize in 2014, and publishing over 50 research papers in the field of intermediate energy nuclear physics.
In 2004, Tim’s attention switched to Global Warming and the dangers this poses to his (and all) kids. Tim has given over 180 presentations on the science, economics, politics, and engineering of man-made climate change.
His presentations aim to sway the public to listen to the scientists and the science.
