Is Modern Warming Unprecedented? A Critical Look at Holocene Temperature Evidence

By |2026-02-08T13:51:10+01:00February 7, 2026|

Claims that today’s Arctic or global temperatures are unprecedented in the Holocene are still widely repeated in scientific literature. In this article, Andy May examines temperature proxy records and shows that both the magnitude and the rate of warming during the Holocene have been misrepresented.

Germany Nears Energy Emergency — And Policy Failure Is to Blame

By |2026-02-04T16:23:12+01:00February 4, 2026|

Germany is nearing a potential energy emergency as gas reserves fall and heavy industries face possible shutdowns. Critics argue the looming economic damage is less the result of harsh winter conditions than of years of far-reaching policy decisions. What is unfolding now may be the consequence of strategic choices that have left Europe’s largest economy increasingly vulnerable.
