Facebook Censorship due to a Science Feedback “Fact Check”
By Andy May Facebook’s censorship is totally out of hand, and their “independent and nonpartisan fact checks” are anything but. Now they are censoring “Climate: The Movie.” The supposed “fact…
Annotated Bibliography for Climate: The Movie
By Andy May Many viewers of Climate: The Movie have asked for more information on the topics discussed. In response, I selected the following 70 key statements from the movie…
The Holocene Climatic Optimum and the “pre-industrial”
By Andy May The “pre-industrial” according to the IPCC in a footnote on page 43 of AR6 WGI is prior to 1750 for radiative forcings and before 1850 for temperature.…
Climate Model Bias 7: WGIII
By Andy May In the previous report, part 6 of this series, I discussed the bias in AR6 WGII. The major bias in the report stemmed from ignoring the benefits…
Climate Model Bias 6: WGII
The IPCC AR6 WGII report examines the impact of climate change but ignores the benefits of warming and additional CO2.
Climate Model Bias 5: Storminess
By Andy May In part 4 the impact of convection and atmospheric circulation on climate was discussed. When circulation patterns change, they change the speed and efficiency of the transport…
Climate Model Bias 4: Convection and atmospheric circulation
By Andy May In part 3 we discussed the relationship between changes in solar activity and climate changes. Exactly how solar changes affect climate is not understood. It isn’t the…
Climate Model Bias 3: Solar Input
By Andy May In part 2 we discussed the IPCC hypothesis of climate change that assumes humans and our greenhouse gas emissions and land use choices are the climate change…
Climate Model Bias 2: Modeling Greenhouse Gases
By Andy May Since the late 19th century, with the work by Svante Arrhenius, climate models have been used to estimate the amount of global warming due to human greenhouse…
Climate Model Bias 1: What is a Model?
By Andy May There are three types of scientific models, as shown in figure 1. In this series of seven posts on climate model bias we are only concerned with…
Sorry, the Little Ice Age Does Exist
By Andy May Renee Hannon (@hannon_renee) pointed out that Raphael Neukom, et al. (2019) compares the modern instrumental temperature record to the Pages2K proxy temperature record and declares that: “……
Hurricane Frequency and Sunspots
By Andy May Yesterday, Roger Pielke Jr. posted a plot of the 3-year frequency of global major hurricanes (he uses a simple count of them) created by Ryan Maue (@RyanMaue).…
Lazard’s LCOE
By Andy May Lazard’s levelized cost of energy (LCOE) is cited on the internet all the time as the source for “solar and wind are cheaper than fossil fuels.” They…
Climate, CO2, and the Sun
By Andy May Christian Freuer has translated this post into German here. In my previous post on multiple regression of known solar cycles versus HadCRUT5, I simply threw the solar…
Modeling HadCRUT5 with CO2 and without CO2
By Andy May I hate statistics, as many of you know. Some people think statistics and/or statistical models that meet standard statistical criteria are facts. The IPCC can be like…
John Constable’s talk at Universidad de las Hespérides
By Andy May h/t Wim Röst The Universidad de las Hespérides is in the Canary Islands, off the coast of Morocco. The Hespérides are the nymphs of the evening and…
Australia Warns Ferries about EVs
By Andy May h/t Don Keiller and Ken Gregory Australia’s Maritime Safety Authority has issued a domestic commercial vessel safety alert on the risks of ferrying battery powered cars (EVs),…
Can extreme heat make parts of the Earth too hot for humans?
By Andy May In another “How the hell did this paper pass peer-review?” incident we find yet another PNAS absurdity by Daniel Vecellio and colleagues (Link), that is described by…
Leah Stokes, PNAS, and Conflicts of Interest
By Andy May Leah Stokes is the senior author of a new paper in PNAS, Prevalence and predictors of wind energy opposition in North America, in which she blames White…
