To read this post in German see here, translation by Christian Freuer. The IPCC and the climate “consensus” believe that essentially all warming since 1750 is due to man’s emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases as shown in figure 1 here or in (IPCC, 2021, p. 961). This has led to a 45-year search for the value of [...]
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” on society. The paper was written in response to a paper I wrote with my [...]

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 [...]
