The following is based on remarks delivered by Steven Koonin and Mark Mills at an MIT Free Speech Alliance debate, which can be viewed here. Reposted from RealClearWorld.com The climate change debate continues to rage. Though the science remains “unsettled,” what does seem settled is that President Trump will withdraw, again, from the [...]
The CERES team (Willie Soon, Ronan and Michael Connolly) was invited by the Heritage Foundation to contribute a Special Report on what is known about the causes of global warming since the 1850s. Although they were offered payment for this report, they did it pro bono for the reasons they outline [...]

This post is a comment on Cobb, 2024, the paper is entitled “The politics of climate denialism and the secondary denialism of economics.” The paper defines climate denialism, discusses the reasons it exists, and the effect of widespread “denialism” [...]
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 [...]
Floods in Valencia, Spain How Politicians and Media Exploit Natural Disasters for a Climate Agenda Let’s get one thing straight: The recent floods in Valencia, Spain, have nothing to do with climate change and everything to do with ignored infrastructure needs and poor urban planning. It’s almost laughable how quickly politicians [...]
Why the 2024 climate report is more about fear than facts. The recent article published in BioScience, "The 2024 state of the climate report: Perilous times on planet Earth," is a parade of exaggerated claims and half-truths, a propaganda piece designed to scare the public into adopting misguided policies while turning a [...]
Professor Richard Lindzen recently spoke in Brussels, at the invitation of the Hungarian political think tank MCC, about the role of consensus in political movements claiming a scientific basis (as is the case nowadays with climate). Below is the full text of his speech. “Hopefully, we will awaken from this nightmare before it [...]

By Andy May Facebook’s censorship is totally out of hand, and their “independent and nonpartisan fact checks” are anything but. Now they are censoring “Climate: The Movie.” The supposed “fact checks” provided by Science Feedback and Climate Feedback (they are two branches of the same organization) have been shown many times to [...]
