The so-called experts among the climate consensus are so bad at guessing they couldn’t predict the winner of a one-horse race. We’ve killed a few digital forests reporting their failures, but now that the IPCC is ramped up climate fear, it’s time to do it some more.
The Paris Climate Agreement is a paper tiger everyone raced to embrace, not because it would do something but because it could be sold as appearing to do something; with ample sides of fawning press coverage, photo ops, and the domestic burnishing of the “slightly” tarnished legacy of a man-child president. But all that hype and … Read more
Lifted entirely from Climate Depot – a flashback to a long list of former UN/IPCC “Scientists” who took issue with its methods and climate claims. Warming fears are the “worst scientific scandal in the history…When people come to know what the truth is, they will feel deceived by science and scientists.” – UN IPCC Japanese Scientist Dr. Kiminori … Read more
Dr. Norman Page, quoting the IPCC, reveals that they have no confidence in their own climate models. And if you can handle some actual science, I suggest you read the whole article. Section IPCC AR4 WG1 8.6 deals with forcings, feedbacks and climate sensitivity. It recognizes the short comings of the models. The conclusions are in section … Read more
“”Scientific forecasting knowledge has been summarized in the form of principles by 40 leading forecasting researchers and 132 expert reviewers. The principles summarize the evidence on forecasting from 545 studies that in turn drew on many prior studies. Some of the forecasting principles, such as ‘provide full disclosure,’ are common to all scientific fields. The … Read more
Panel of Scientists says UN Study Retreats, Misleads, and Misinforms A panel of 50 scientists from 15 countries says the newest report from the United Nations on climate change is filled with concessions that its past predictions were too extreme and contains “at least 13 misleading or untrue statements and 11 further statements that are … Read more
This would be the fourth report, but given that the IPCC has jumped another shark in its pursuit of “research” that explains its conclusions, we need to post this. The report, which cites thousands of peer-reviewed articles the United Nations-sponsored panel on climate change ignored, also found that “no empirical evidence exists to substantiate the claim … Read more

I hope you like salt because this might take a grain or two. A weather fearmongering tag team comprised of the Daily Mail and something called SafeHom.org has compiled some data to produce what they call “The Best & Worst States for Climate Change in the US.” Get a load of this. The signs are … Read more
Kirk is adrift, Leslie is lost, and Invest 97L is a hair west of Cape Verde and likely to follow them around the central Atlantic. Milton burned out fast after a CAT 3 landing (Sorry, climateers – no Cat 6 superstorm), making a mess, but that’s what hurricanes do, and a lot less often than … Read more
We’ve no shortage of debunking on these pages when it comes to the hyperbolic prognostications of climate cultists. These are people whose gambling advice you’d best not take unless you know your bet is backstopped by endless federal grants to friends and family, who then fund their re-election campaigns to keep the cycle of fiscal … Read more
One of the risks of writing about hurricanes a day before the content is published is that they can form in the interim. This has happened to me before, but not so much this year. That’s odd. All the indicators suggested a knock-down drag-out storm-a-palooza of a season. It has yet to materialize only days … Read more
Monday Monday, can’t trust that day! Last week’s Friday Edition. Remember, ridicule and mockery are effective weapons: 1. Ridicule cannot easily be fought 2. Ridicule makes the enemy angry, and angry people make mistakes 3. For those in the “squishy middle” a Thought Splinter (and Part II and Part III and Part IV) can often be hidden inside humor. Now, … Read more
The weather app on my phone is as reliable as any other weather reporting app, including the people on the news. There have been lots of near misses and too many not right at all, but now it is propagandizing me. Last week was mild, pleasant, great sleeping weather, but throughout the week, the App … Read more
Solar was never green. The lifecycle footprint from manufacture to transportation, installation, and end of life is top-heavy, with materials and processes that produce a lot of pollution. That was true before China captured most of the market.
If the corporate media says it, the odds are good that it is misleading, an incomplete ‘truth,’ or a lie. But because they are so politically driven in their choices and coverage, you can almost glean the truth based on how hyperbolic their response is or how narrow their focus is.
Climate alarmists have long warned that extreme cold weather events are a consequence of climate change and will worsen. Weather records, however, demonstrate this is not true. It is challenging to trust absolutist claims of anthropogenic climatic warming when those making such claims display such ideological dishonesty.
Since its development as an integral part of genetically modified organism (GMO) cropping, glyphosate – the active weed-killing ingredient in Roundup – has attracted controversy over whether it causes human disease, particularly non-Hodgkins lymphoma.
A new study published in the scientific peer-reviewed journal Climate by 37 researchers from 18 countries suggests that current estimates of global warming are contaminated by urban warming biases.
We are told climate change is a crisis, and that there is an “overwhelming scientific consensus.” “It’s a manufactured consensus,” says climate scientist Judith Curry in my new video. She says scientists have an incentive to exaggerate risk to pursue “fame and fortune.” She knows about that because she once spread alarm about climate change. … Read more
