The EU’s Nuclear Phase-Out Was a Blunder
Following Friedrich Merz in January, Ursula von der Leyen has now also admitted that the phase-out of nuclear energy was a major ‘strategic mistake’, not only for Germany but for the EU as well. American researcher Roger Pielke Jr. uses some simple calculations to demonstrate the magnitude of the EU’s strategic blunder.
Paul Ehrlich (1932-2026): Farewell to the Long-Lived Failed Prophet of Miserablism – The Population Bomb author lived a long, wealthy, healthy life, an opportunity his work denied to countless others
Paul Ehrlich, author of The Population Bomb, became one of the most influential voices behind modern environmental pessimism. His warnings of inevitable resource depletion and societal collapse shaped decades of policy and public thinking. Yet, as history unfolded, many of his most prominent predictions failed to materialize—raising enduring questions about the consequences of alarmist narratives in science and policy.
US Energy Realism Pays Off in Iran Crisis
The stark contrast between American resilience and European collapse is a permanent lesson. National security should not be subject to the whims of the weather or the approval of climate activists in European capitals.
AI accurately reconstructs temperatures across Antarctica
Artificial intelligence is increasingly being applied in climate science, with mixed results so far. A new study, however, suggests that deep learning can successfully reconstruct Antarctic surface temperatures despite limited observational data. By combining sparse measurements with reanalysis datasets, the researchers claim to achieve high accuracy—offering new insights into long-term temperature trends across the continent.

Analysis of IPCC report
The Frozen Climate Views of the IPCC
The Clintel Foundation has published the book The Frozen Climate Views of the IPCC. It’s by far the most important work of its existence. In thirteen chapters we indicate per theme whether the IPCC has done its work well. In short, we conclude that the IPCC has made several serious mistakes.
ABOUT CLINTEL
Climate Intelligence Foundation
Climate Intelligence (Clintel) is an independent foundation informing people about climate change and climate policies. Clintel was founded in 2019 by emeritus professor of geophysics Guus Berkhout and science journalist Marcel Crok. Clintel’s main objective is to generate knowledge and understanding of the causes and effects of climate change as well as the effects of climate policy on the economy and the environment.
