Clintel News Climate Intelligence (Clintel) is an independent foundation informing people about climate change and climate policies. World Climate Declaration.
In his recent ICSF/Clintel lecture, Matt Ridley argued that public and political momentum behind the “climate emergency” narrative is weakening, and he explored the reasons for this shift as well as its implications.
Explore how climate scientist Andy May analyzes the relationship between TOA energy imbalance and surface net flux, challenging common interpretations in climate science.
The article below by Chris Morrison clearly demonstrates that the reliability of temperature measurements in the United Kingdom is seriously lacking. Based on detailed research, Dr Eric Huxter shows that a large share of recorded temperature spikes is not the result of natural variation, but of artificial influences at poorly located measurement stations. This raises fundamental questions about the quality of the underlying data used for climate reporting and policy decisions.
Finally, we see a few key topics hitting the media in Australia, says Jo Nova. National Party leader Canavan even talks about the thousand-year supply of brown coal, and also about a method of turning coal to liquid fuel.
In May 2023, Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, declared that the fossil-fuel-based growth model is “simply obsolete.” The partial blockade of the Strait of Hormuz starkly exposes the irony of that statement, says Samuel Furfari.
Spanish geologist and new World Climate Declaration signatory Enrique Ortega brings decades of experience in earth sciences to the climate debate, emphasizing the importance of geological history in understanding present-day climate change.
A new paper shows that in the USA, cold weather is a much larger contributor to mortality than heat, and that social vulnerability plays a major role in determining outcomes.
A new report from the World Meteorological Organization once again led to apocalyptic headlines in the newspapers last week. Unintentionally, writes Marcel Crok, the report opens the door to the most important factor in our climate: the sun.
The idea that wind and solar power can easily replace fossil fuels sounds appealing. But behind this optimistic narrative lie complex technical challenges, such as intermittency, grid stability, and the crucial roles of synchronization and inertia in maintaining a reliable electricity system, concludes Francis Menton after a powerful presentation by Kathryn Porter.
As Dr. Matthew Wielicki dryly put it: “Is there anything CO₂ can’t do?” The study behind that remark claims that rising CO₂ levels may even lead to regional cooling under certain conditions—highlighting just how flexible—and uncertain—climate model outcomes can be.
