How can eager Governments get off the Net Zero hook?

Lecture by Dr. Benny Peiser held by Zoom on Wednesday, January 29, 2025 Lecture Slides In this, his farewell lecture as GWPF Director, Dr Peiser argues that for the first time since the launch of the GWPF 15 years ago, climate consensus is breaking down. For too long, climate science and climate policy have been dominated by dogmatism, censorship and eco-socialist control. The main reason for the deepening crisis of unilateral climate policy is the rising cost and financial burden of utopian targets that have led to voter rebellion. Most political leaders who have been driving the radical climate policy …

FIFTY YEARS OF CLIMATE FEARMONGERING

FIFTY YEARS OF CLIMATE FEARMONGERING

This is a letter sent to various editors by Thorpe Watson. An earlier version was published in the Trail Times (“The ‘green’ road to poverty and misery”, 30 January 2025). It was a response to a letter critical of Russ Babcock’s letter entitled: “Mother Nature is in charge; she always has been”, 26 December 2024. This letter should provide at least some relief for anyone suffering anxiety attacks triggered by political propaganda alleging a man-made climate crisis. Please be assured that there is ample scientific evidence refuting the cultish belief in a CO2-induced climate crisis and that such alarmism stems …

Climatists Make Their Case by Omitting Facts

Climatists Make Their Case by Omitting Facts

Science Matters Jan. 12, 2025 One of the world’s top economists has written an expert court report that forcefully supports a group of children and young adults who have sued the federal government for failing to act on climate change. (Source: Inside Climate News  here) Excerpts in italics with my bolds. Stiglitz, a Columbia University economics professor and former World Bank chief economist, concludes that increasing global warming will have huge costs on society and that a fossil fuel-based system “is causing imminent, significant, and irreparable harm to the Youth Plaintiffs and Affected Children more generally.” He explains in a …

Covering Climate Now

Not A Lot of People Know That Oct. 17, 2024 By Paul Homewood I have been tracking Covering Climate Now for some time now.

Arctic Sea Ice ‘Choke Points’ Reducing NW Passage Shipping Season Length By 5-14 Weeks Since 2007

Arctic Sea Ice ‘Choke Points’ Reducing NW Passage Shipping Season Length By 5-14 Weeks Since 2007

No Tricks Zone July 18, 2024 Global warming was supposed to open up Arctic region shipping routes, making the Northwest Passage easier and less risky to traverse. Per a new study, the opposite has happened. As we reported earlier this year, while a declining trend in Arctic sea ice was observed from the 1990s to 2007, there has been no trend reduction in Arctic sea ice since then. A 17-year pause. It has long been a “common belief” that shipping through Canada’s Northwest Passage would become “more viable” with a warming Arctic and  a consequent reduction in sea ice impediments. …

The State of Earth’s Climate 2024 – No Evidence of a Planetary ‘Crisis’! – Professor Ole Humlum

Held by Zoom on Wednesday, June 19, 2024 Prof. Ole Humlum used meteorological and climatological data to objectively assess the state of earth’s climate. Global air temperatures in 2023/24 are reported to be the “highest on record” – how significant is that? Global temperature records do confirm that observed average global air temperature rise is about +0.15°C per decade – is that serious? Since 2004, the global oceans above 1900 m depth on average have warmed about 0.037°C – are the oceans “boiling”? Are recent variations between El Niño and La Niña episodes in any way unusual? To what extent …
