Sadly, the mainstream media pounced on this highly embellished press release because it contained exciting claims that fit the climate catastrophe narrative that they seem wedded to, facts be damned.…

The Battle of Climate Hypotheses: The Green-House Gas Forcer Vs. The Winter Gatekeeper Round 3: The Two Arctic Paradoxes
For the first time, the IPCC’s doctrine of CO2 as a ‘control knob’ in our climate faces a serious challenger in the form of a comprehensive hypothesis about what drives…
What Postmodernists Got Right About Science
It was inevitable, perhaps, that after science became ubiquitous and powerful, and very rich, that it would devolve into politics. Which is what the postmodernists (in part) argued all along.
Carbon Dioxide and a Warming Climate are not problems
By Andy May and Marcel Crok We were charged by Marty Rowland and the American Journal of Economics and Sociology (AJES) with writing a literature review paper supporting the skeptical…
The Great Global Warming Swindle and Climate the Movie: The Cold Truth
In March of this year, after 17 years, Director Durkin released “Climate the Movie: the Cold Truth”, the Sequel to the 2007 “The Great Global Warming Swindle.” Collaborating with American…
Evaluating Claims of Increasing Floods Due to Climate Change
While there is a knee-jerk tendency to link flood events directly to global warming, a serious approach that considers multiple factors—natural, human, and technological—is necessary for a comprehensive understanding and…
“Powerless in the storm” Climate Industry Misdirection
I have to assume that this is an example of the Climate Industry’ Misdirection Campaign described recently by Kip Hansen.
No, Sun Sentinel, Florida Isn’t Under Future “Climate Threats”
Even in 2050 and 2100 the IPCC does not forecast any climate change impact on coastal flooding.
2024 Annual GWPF Lecture – Judith Curry – Climate Uncertainty and Risk
Dr Judith Curry gives the 2024 Annual GWPF Lecture on the subject of ‘Climate Uncertainty and Risk’.
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.
‘Alternative Facts’: Ted Nordhaus explains how extreme events came to represent climate change contrary to an overwhelming scientific consensus
…environmental advocates would pursue all of these strategies.
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…
IPCC’s New “Hockey Stick” Temperature Graph
The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published their latest assessment report (AR6) in 2021. In 2023, the Clintel Foundation published a report which criticizes AR6.
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…
Restoring the Sciences: Rethinking Climate Risk with Judith Curry
The IPCC is just a big consensus manufacturing exercise.
Anthropogenic Global Warming is Political, Not Physical, Science
Meanwhile, greenhouse gas emissions, principally CO2 and methane, have been inexorably increasing, even as thousands of megawatts of renewable energy have been brought on line. And global temperature has been…
