Met Office temperature measurements unreliable and systematically biased

By Clintel Foundation|2026-04-04T17:39:29+02:00April 5, 2026|

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.

The Strait of Hormuz’s Bitter Lesson for the European Union

By Clintel Foundation|2026-04-03T01:20:23+02:00April 3, 2026|

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.

In a Warming World, Rising Cold Deaths Outnumber Heat Deaths 12 to 1

By Clintel Foundation|2026-04-03T18:23:02+02:00April 2, 2026|

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.

“It’s the sun, stupid!” gets new relevance

By Marcel Crok|2026-04-01T14:53:47+02:00April 1, 2026|

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.

Yet Another Reason Why Wind And Solar Will Never Work

By Clintel Foundation|2026-03-30T20:03:04+02:00March 31, 2026|

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.

CO₂ Can Cause Cooling Too? Climate Models Say Yes (Sometimes)

By Clintel Foundation|2026-03-29T11:59:43+02:00March 30, 2026|

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.

Press release GWPF: Event Attribution Studies are “a blot on science”, says Ralph B. Alexander

By Clintel Foundation|2026-03-29T09:56:04+02:00March 29, 2026|

Extreme weather attribution studies are based on flawed logic and misleading statistical practices, according to a new report by The Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF). Author Ralph B. Alexander argues that these studies, which link individual weather events to climate change, are driven more by political and legal agendas than by robust scientific evidence.

China’s Massive Coal-to-Liquids Expansion

By Clintel Foundation|2026-03-29T09:53:31+02:00March 28, 2026|

In this article, Australian science writer Jo Nova examines China’s rapidly expanding coal-to-chemicals and coal-to-liquids industry. While much of the West focuses on phasing out fossil fuels, China is quietly transforming coal into fuels, plastics and fertilizers at massive scale—raising important questions about energy security and global climate policy.
