Climategate Poster Covering 3 Decades

Jo Nova writes: You have to see this to believe it. Look up close and admire the detail while you despair at how long science has been going off the rails. To better appreciate the past and what was exposed by the CRU emails, the time-line chart consolidates and chronologically organizes the information uncovered and [...]

New Study Implicates CFCs and Cosmic Rays in Climate Change

WATERLOO, Ont. (Monday, Dec. 21, 2009) – Cosmic rays and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), both already implicated in depleting the Earth’s ozone layer, are also responsible for changes in the global climate, a University of Waterloo scientist reports in a new peer-reviewed paper. In his paper, Qing-Bin Lu, a professor of physics and astronomy, shows how CFCs [...]

Copenhagen Post Mortem – Climate Summit Zombie to Rise Again in 2010?

The much hyped and very expensive Copenhagen Climate Summit finally came to an end on Friday 18th December, with a vague agreement ‘accord’ to somehow limit a global temperature increase to 2C. Thankfully no legally binding agreement yet, but it is nevertheless scientifically absurd to state that the Earth has a fixed temperature that humans [...]

The £500 Billion Cost of Gordon Brown’s 42% Copenhagen Pledge

The recent TaxPayers’ Alliance report Ending the Green Rip-Off: Reforming climate change policy to reduce the burden on families showed that existing climate change policy is imposing an excessive and inefficient burden on families and businesses.  The report cited Citigroup analysis which suggests climate change policy is already heading for an “affordability crisis”. Prime Minister [...]

Past Sea Level Rise and Adaptation off Orkney

A unique discovery of submerged man-made structures on the seabed off Orkney could help find solutions to rising sea levels, experts have said. They said the well preserved stone pieces near the island of Damsay are the only such examples around the UK. It is thought some of the structures may date back thousands of [...]

NASA: Quiet Sun Cools the Upper Atmosphere

New measurements from a NASA satellite show a dramatic cooling in the upper atmosphere that correlates with the declining phase of the current solar cycle. For the first time, researchers can show a timely link between the Sun and the climate of Earth’s thermosphere, the region above 100 km, an essential step in making accurate [...]

Ending the Green Rip-Off

Matthew Sinclair, Research Director at the TaxPayers’ Alliance said: “Families up and down the country have been over-charged on everything from turning on the TV to flying abroad, all for the sake of ineffective green taxes and regulations. Rising electricity prices have hit the poor and elderly in particular, and their cost is expected to [...]

Sea Levels and Temperature in the Previous Interglacial

There’s a new paper in Nature suggesting higher sea levels and temperature during the previous interglacial, which, of course, didn’t have man-made CO2 in the atmosphere: Probabilistic assessment of sea level during the last interglacial stage Robert E. Kopp, Frederik J. Simons, Jerry X. Mitrovica, Adam C. Maloof & Michael Oppenheimer, doi:10.1038/nature0868 Abstract: With polar [...]

Russians Accuse Met Office of Cherry-Picking Weather Station Data

THE Met Office was last night facing accusations it cherry-picked climate change figures in a bid to increase evidence of global warming. UK climatologists “probably tampered with Russian-climate data” to produce a report submitted to world leaders at this week’s Copenhagen summit, it is claimed. The Met Office’s study, which says the first decade of [...]

Environ-Mentalists Get a Taste of Their Own Medicine

(Copenhagen, Denmark, December 16, 2009) Global warming skeptics from CFACT yesterday pulled off an international climate caper using GPS triangulation from Greenpeace’s own on-board camera photos to locate and sail up long-side of the infamous Greenpeace vessel, Rainbow Warrior. Then in Greenpeace-like fashion, the CFACT activists unfurled a banner reading “Propaganda Warrior” which underscored how [...]
