RCP8.5 Has Been Dropped: What It Means — and What It Doesn’t
Dropping RCP8.5 is a step in the right direction but the CERES Team fears that it’s only a small step. The IPCC still looks set to be relying on the current climate computer models for their “climate change projections”. Even using a more realistic “business-as-usual” emissions scenario, their models are still going to simulate dramatic “human-caused global warming”.
The WHO is at it Again: Climate Change Repackaged as a Health Emergency
The climate-health linkage is only the latest iteration of an age-old pattern of authoritarians who claim expert knowledge to order people’s lives onto the road to serfdom, says Tilak Doshi.
Amsterdam Ad Ban Typifies Climate Alarmism’s Farce
Amsterdam just became the world’s first capital to outlaw public ads for both meat and fossil fuels. But advertising bans serve only to boost a feeling of moral superiority among urban elites while achieving nothing and jeopardizing much, says Vijay Jayaraj.
The climate catastrophe has been called off – the plundering continues. Politicians and the media are complicit.
In this article for EIKE – European Institute for Climate and Energy, author Michael Limburg examines the political and media fallout after the IPCC quietly dropped the extreme RCP8.5 climate scenario as a plausible future pathway. The debate in the German Bundestag raises broader questions about how climate risks have been communicated — and whether exaggerated scenarios were used to justify far-reaching policies.

Analysis of IPCC report
The Frozen Climate Views of the IPCC
The Clintel Foundation has published the book The Frozen Climate Views of the IPCC. It’s by far the most important work of its existence. In thirteen chapters we indicate per theme whether the IPCC has done its work well. In short, we conclude that the IPCC has made several serious mistakes.
ABOUT CLINTEL
Climate Intelligence Foundation
Climate Intelligence (Clintel) is an independent foundation informing people about climate change and climate policies. Clintel was founded in 2019 by emeritus professor of geophysics Guus Berkhout and science journalist Marcel Crok. Clintel’s main objective is to generate knowledge and understanding of the causes and effects of climate change as well as the effects of climate policy on the economy and the environment.

Winning the war on LCOE: wind and solar were never the cheapest power sources
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.
Can we turn “climate science” into science?
Demetris Koutsoyiannis presents a preview of the new Chapter 7, "Radiation in the atmosphere", of his book “Stochastics as Physics”.
