Clintel News Climate Intelligence (Clintel) is an independent foundation informing people about climate change and climate policies. World Climate Declaration.
The key takeaway from a new paper by John Christy is that the story of temperature extremes in the U.S. is more complicated than often presented.
In recent weeks, a common refrain in Europe has been that if we had only focused more aggressively on 'renewable' energy sources, we would not find ourselves in such a vulnerable position because of the war in Iran. But is this claim true? Dutch science journalist and Clintel director Marcel Crok argues the opposite: it is precisely Europe's fixation on climate policy and CO2 reduction that has left us exposed and contributed to the current energy mess.
At the recent Heartland Conference, there was a special session called Bringing youth into the climate realist fold. How are younger generations engaging with climate issues and shaping the future conversation? Two interesting speakers were Lucy Biggers, who used to hang out with Greta Thunberg, and Chris Martz, who has been called the ‘Anti Greta Thunberg’.
Germany’s Energy Minister recently delivered a verdict that would have been career-ending heresy only a year ago: “One fact has been concealed for too long: an energy transition that ignores system costs will ruin the country it claims to save.” So fifteen years after Merkel’s nuclear panic, reality is reasserting itself with the cold logic of physics and markets.
Groups like the Heartland Institute, the CO2 Coalition and the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT) are enjoying unprecedented influence, was the media’s conclusion after the 16th International Conference on Climate Change in Washington DC.
A UK economist recently said the quiet part out loud: high energy prices are ‘good for the climate’. This is not an aberration, says Tilak Doshi, but symptomatic of modern economists. “The barbarians did not storm the gates. The Western elites invited them in, gave them chairs, and asked them to redesign the curriculum.”
Last year saw a 14% global slump in climate-related stories compared to 2024, which was already 38% down on peak Greta hysteria in 2021.
The CERES team presented new analyses at the Heartland Conference challenging key assumptions in climate science. Their talks questioned the Earth’s energy imbalance, criticized IPCC methodologies, and emphasized the need for independent, data-driven research.
Nobel Prize winner John Clauser was one of the speakers at last week’s International Conference on Climate Change. Clauser states that there is no proven climate crisis. He is a prominent signatory of Clintel’s World Climate Declaration.
Presenting trillion-dollar model outputs as settled economic fact is bad journalism and the BBC should be ashamed for presenting such easily falsified rubbish as fact. That’s the true disaster here.
