Press release GWPF: Event Attribution Studies are “a blot on science”, says Ralph B. Alexander
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
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.
New Ice Core Study Finds No Clear CO₂–Temperature Link
New research from ancient Antarctic ice cores is challenging long-held assumptions about the role of carbon dioxide in Earth’s climate history. Evidence suggests that CO₂ and methane levels remained remarkably stable over millions of years—even as the planet experienced dramatic temperature shifts. These findings raise fresh questions about the extent to which greenhouse gases alone can explain past and present climate change.
