First CERES podcast is online
In this new podcast series, the CERES team will talk about science – reviewing the latest science, revisiting old scientific questions, and discussing some of CERES’s own scientific research. Often their discussions can be quite controversial because the team is more interested in figuring out what is scientifically correct than what is politically correct.

Death of Climate Alarmism Has Been Greatly Exaggerated
The Climate Establishment is now pivoting from overt apocalypticism to what might be called ‘non-alarmist alarmism’, says Tilak Doshi. This is a posture that formally disowns the discredited scenario RCP8.5 while preserving every policy conclusion that scenario was used to support.
Advancing Freedom With Data: Debunking Catastrophic Greenhouse Warming
CO2’s greenhouse effect is the result of its interaction with the infrared of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is now largely saturated at today’s CO2 concentration of about 420 parts per million (ppm), say William Happer and Richard Lindzen. With so little unaffected infrared radiation left to interact with CO2 molecules, adding more of the gas is having a trivial effect and will produce even less warming in the future.
Europe’s weather losses are not rising (once adjusted for growth)
One of the most persistent claims in (European) climate politics is that weather disasters are becoming increasingly expensive because climate change is making extreme weather worse. But a new analysis by Roger Pielke Jr. shows that once economic growth is properly accounted for, Europe’s weather-related disaster losses have remained essentially flat since 1990.
