Climate.us: A Sign That the Climate Debate Is Far From Over

By Clintel Foundation|June 28, 2026|Tags: Anthony Watts, climate advocacy, climate communication, Climate debate, Climate policy, Climate.gov, Climate.us, NOAA|

Many commentators have suggested that recent political changes represent some sort of permanent turning point in the climate debate. That would be a mistake, says Anthony Watts. The Climate.us project for instance, demonstrates that there remains a substantial network committed to maintaining the climate narrative.

ICSF/Clintel lecture by Roger Pielke Jr.: RCP8.5 is Retired – What Now?

In his recent ICSF/Clintel Lecture, Roger Pielke Jr. acknowledges that the scientific community is now correcting a long-standing problem regarding extreme climate scenarios like RCP8.5. But he warns that the consequences of past reliance on these scenarios will continue for many years.

A Good Article About the AMOC, Just in Time for the El Niño

The El Niño will arrive, the thermometers will spike, and the AMOC-on-the-brink stories will spike along with them, says Charles Rotter. But even Science recently concluded that “the Atlantic’s vital circulation may withstand climate warming better than feared”.

Winning the war on LCOE: wind and solar were never the cheapest power sources

By Eric Vieira|June 23, 2026|Tags: Electricity systems, Energy policy, Grid reliability, LCOE, Levelized Cost of Energy, Solar power, Wind power|

Many organizations now acknowledge that generating electricity is not the same as building an affordable and reliable electricity system. Isaac Orr and Mitch Rolling explain that this is an admission that wind and solar were never the cheapest electricity sources — the hidden costs were simply being ignored by using the LCOE metric.
