Benny Peiser: “The political consensus around climate is broken”
Benny Peiser, director of the Global Warming Policy Foundation for the last 15 years, gave a talk for the Clintel Foundation in The Netherlands in late November.
Peiser gave examples from around Europe showing how the Net Zero agenda is crumbling down. He also talks about international climate policy after the Trump election. And who is going to pay for the promised 300 billion a year at the COP29 in Baku?
This is a must see talk. As Benny said to me: “This is the first time in all those years that people start listening to us.”
Is the Net Zero agenda really nearing its end?

Death of Climate Alarmism Has Been Greatly Exaggerated
The Climate Establishment is now pivoting from overt apocalypticism to what might be called ‘non-alarmist alarmism’, says Tilak Doshi. This is a posture that formally disowns the discredited scenario RCP8.5 while preserving every policy conclusion that scenario was used to support.
Advancing Freedom With Data: Debunking Catastrophic Greenhouse Warming
CO2’s greenhouse effect is the result of its interaction with the infrared of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is now largely saturated at today’s CO2 concentration of about 420 parts per million (ppm), say William Happer and Richard Lindzen. With so little unaffected infrared radiation left to interact with CO2 molecules, adding more of the gas is having a trivial effect and will produce even less warming in the future.
Europe’s weather losses are not rising (once adjusted for growth)
One of the most persistent claims in (European) climate politics is that weather disasters are becoming increasingly expensive because climate change is making extreme weather worse. But a new analysis by Roger Pielke Jr. shows that once economic growth is properly accounted for, Europe’s weather-related disaster losses have remained essentially flat since 1990.
