RSSTHE world’s leading climate change body has been accused of losing credibility after a damning report into its research practices. A high-level inquiry into the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change found there was “little evidence” for its claims about global warming. It also said the panel had emphasised the negative impacts of climate change and [...]
Great line from the warmist Independent (of all places!) in an article by Julie Burchill about Green Hypocrite Prince (‘Climate Charlie’) Charles: “Green is the first socio-political movement in which every single leader and spokesperson is filthy rich.” The Independent: Julie Burchill: So the Prince of Green Hypocrites is going on tour. Thank God I’ll be [...]
NOAA on the 2010 Russian Heat Wave (excerpt): Despite this strong evidence for a warming planet, greenhouse gas forcing fails to explain the 2010 heat wave over western Russia. The natural process of atmospheric blocking, and the climate impacts induced by such blocking, are the principal cause for this heat wave. It is not known [...]
1. Introduction News broke on or around November 19 2009 that a large archive of emails and files from the Climate Research Unit had been released on the internet. The contents of the files were sufficiently disconcerting to the public, governments and university administrations to prompt the establishment of a number of inquiries. This paper [...]
Abstract: There are three main global temperature histories: the combined CRU-Hadley record (HADCRU), the NASA-GISS (GISTEMP) record, and the NOAA record. All three global averages depend on the same underlying land data archive, the Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN). Because of this reliance on GHCN, its quality deficiencies will constrain the quality of all derived [...]
..close examination of the source of the claimed 97% consensus reveals that it comes from a non-peer reviewed article describing an online poll in which a total of only 79 climate scientists chose to participate. Of the 79 self-selected climate scientists, 75 agreed with the notion of AGW. The Hockey Schtick: The 97% “Consensus” is [...]
Throughout Earth’s history, there is evidence of large carbon dioxide releases, greenhouse conditions, ocean acidification, and major changes in marine life. About 120 million years ago (mya), during the early part of the Cretaceous period, a series of massive volcanic eruptions pumped huge amounts of carbon dioxide into Earth’s atmosphere. During the Aptian Oceanic Anoxic [...]
The backing by Chris Huhne, the energy secretary, for a toughening of European Union emissions targets has been attacked by the CBI, which has warned it will entail “huge costs”, “huge repercussions” and will “jeopardise and potentially damage” businesses across the economy. Richard Lambert, CBI director-general, set out several arguments against hardening the targets, including [...]
The Times Higher Education Supplement has an interesting article entitled Profits of Doom: Climate change is serious business – in more ways than one. Martin Cohen describes how capitalist ‘bootleggers’ have co-opted the environmental ‘Baptists’ to fulfil their raison d’etre – making money. Thanks to the ‘greenwash’, the solutions could be worse than the problems. [...]
George Monbiot should be calling the IPCC to account for its unreferenced rainforest claims, rather than attacking its critics. Guardian.co.uk: Response to George Monbiot: Why ‘Amazongate’ matters
