Koutsoyiannis, and T. Iliopoulou, Understanding Climate: Gifts from the Nile, 60 pages, SR 301, The Heritage Foundation, Washington, DC, USA, 2024. Its abstract reads as follows: [...]
With Merkel gone, Germany finds itself on an accelerating trajectory of impoverishment. One might have hoped that the German Right would learn a few lessons from the Merkel disaster. It has not. The European People's Party (EPP), the largest political group in the European Parliament -- in which the CDU is a member [...]
I last wrote about Climate Change and Civilization for the past 4,000 Years in 2016. Since then, a lot has changed, and I’ve learned a lot more about the subject. First, we learned that various air and sea temperature proxies, such as ice core δ18O or tree rings, are all different. For a discussion of some temperature [...]
“Consensus” scientists do not believe that solar variability, internal climate variability (in this model simplified to the ~67-year stadium wave), or volcanism influence net global warming or climate change since 1750, yet considerable evidence exists that these factors have an impact. I’ve previously built a model of the HadCRUT5 global average temperature (see here) from seven [...]

Climate is a hot topic, but I have been studying it in a cool way. I have used math in my studies, as it is something that I have learned and appreciate. And I fully embrace Stendhal’s maxim about math: What is more I loved, and still do love, mathematics for itself as not [...]
Überschwemmungen in Valencia, Spanien Wie Politiker und Medien Naturkatastrophen für eine Klima-Agenda instrumentalisieren Eines wollen wir klarstellen: Die jüngsten Überschwemmungen in Valencia, Spanien, haben nichts mit dem Klimawandel zu tun, sondern mit ignorierten Schwächen der Infrastruktur und schlechter Stadtplanung. Es ist fast schon lächerlich, wie schnell Politiker und Mainstream-Medien (MSM) sich [...]
