Coal’s Rise: Energy Security and Climate Realism
Despite years of predictions that coal would soon disappear, global coal consumption continues to reach new record highs. Vijay Jayaraj examines why rising electricity demand, energy security concerns, and geopolitical realities are driving a renewed reliance on coal despite the rapid expansion of renewable energy.
Van Wijngaarden: “No scientific support for net zero policies”
Are net-zero climate policies based on sound science? Professor William A. van Wijngaarden examines observational climate data to show why the evidence does not support radical net-zero policies.
No Evidence That Weather Extremes Becoming More Frequent or Intense: (1) Heat Waves
In a series of articles on extreme weather attribution, physicist Ralph B. Alexander examines whether observational evidence supports claims that weather extremes are becoming more frequent or intense. Following his previous article on the methodology behind attribution studies, this installment focuses on heat waves and the historical temperature record.
Professor Seok Soon Park: Climate Models Are Fear-Mongering Machines
During a lecture in Oslo on June 30, 2026, Professor Seok Soon Park, a leading South Korean environmental scientist and Clintel Ambassador for South Korea, presented a comprehensive critique of the climate models used by the IPCC. Drawing on decades of experience in environmental modeling, he argued that these models have fundamental scientific limitations and function more as "fear-mongering machines" than reliable tools for predicting future climate.
Henrik Svensmark fired by his university
Danish scientist Henrik Svensmark, known for his controversial research on cosmic rays and cloud formation, has been dismissed by his university in Copenhagen after years of internal conflict. In an interview with the Danish newspaper Berlingske, he described the decision as “a death blow” to his research.
Steven Koonin: “There Is a Significant Gap Between What Climate Science Says and What You’ve Been Told It Says”
During the ARC Conference 2026, American physicist Steven Koonin argued that there is "a very significant gap" between what climate science actually says and what the public has been told it says. The former science adviser to President Barack Obama calls for a more honest debate about climate science, scientific uncertainty and climate policy.
