Michael Mann “Hockey Stick” Update: Now Definitively Established To Be Fraud

Manhattan Contrarian August 26, 2019 | Francis Menton The Michael Mann “Hockey Stick” is suddenly back in the news. It’s been so long since we have heard from it, do you even remember what it is? The “Hockey Stick” is the graph that took the world of climate science by storm back in 1998. That’s when Mann and co-authors Raymond Bradley and Malcolm Hughes published in Nature their seminal paper “Global-scale temperature patterns and climate forcing over the past six centuries.” A subsequent 1999 update by the same authors, also in Nature (“Northern Hemisphere Temperatures During the Past Millennium: Inferences, …

Cough up the ‘secret science,’ climate propagandists!

WND Exclusive: Pat Boone continues his challenge to disgraced ‘hockey stick’ fabricator By Pat Boone | October 11, 2019 Dear reader, fellow citizen: I hope you remember a column recently in this space in which I let you know about a monumental development in this whole “global warming” panic. I shared with you the results of a little-reported court trial that detailed the embarrassing exposure of the most quoted “climate expert” as a total fraud! My purpose is to free us all from this ridiculous “Sky is Falling” scam and its primary “Chicken Little.” Now for a follow up, a …

A Climate Modeller Spills the Beans

Quadrant 23rd September 2019 Tony Thomas There’s a top-level oceanographer and meteorologist who is  prepared to cry “Nonsense!”on the “global warming crisis” evident to climate modellers but not in the real world. He’s as well or better qualified than the modellers he criticises — the ones whose Year 2100 forebodings of 4degC warming have set the world to spending $US1.5 trillion a year to combat CO2 emissions. The iconoclast is Dr. Mototaka Nakamura. In June he put out a small book in Japanese on “the sorry state of climate science”. It’s titled Confessions of a climate scientist: the global warming …

Earth’s climate may not warm as quickly as expected, suggest new cloud studies

Science Mag By Tim Wogan | May 25, 2016 Federico Bianchi (pictured) and colleagues took the CLOUD instrumentation into the Alps to show sulfur dioxide wasn’t needed to make aerosols. By Tim Wogan May. 25, 2016 , 2:45 PM Clouds need to condense around small particles called aerosols to form, and human aerosol pollution—primarily in the form of sulfuric acid—has made for cloudier skies. That’s why scientists have generally assumed Earth’s ancient skies were much sunnier than they are now. But today, three new studies show how naturally emitted gases from trees can also form the seed particles for clouds. …

Climate change: On media perceptions and misperceptions

APS Physics Wallace Manheimer, wallymanheimer@yahoo.com This essay claims that the media vastly overstates the risks of climate change. It has a mandate to report an unbiased view of issues, not just present a single view of an extraordinarily complicated scientific controversy, and pretend the other side does not exist, or is corrupt. They assert a single cause for the supposed crisis, excess CO2 in the atmosphere caused by burning fossil fuel, something on which billions of people depend. They advance a single solution, stop using fossil fuel. But even if we do this, how sure can we be that the …

Controlled Opposition: the strategy to stymie real climate debate

Principia Scientific | October 2, 2019 Written by John O’Sullivan Why is it that groups like the Heartland Institute and CFACT are very good at spending money holding seminars and presentations to their echo chamber of supporters but don’t change things for the better in the real world? Have you noticed how ‘lukewarmers’ like Spencer, Happer, Curry, etc will say CO2 does something but none will quantify and qualify their statements with real metrics? Perhaps you’ve heard of the famous quote by Soviet tyrant, Vladimir Lenin [pictured below] who said: ”The best way to control the opposition is to lead …

97 Articles Refuting The “97% Consensus”

Climate Change Dispatch The 97% “consensus” study, Cook et al. (2013) has been thoroughly refuted in scholarly peer-reviewed journals, by major news media, public policy organizations and think tanks, highly credentialed scientists and extensively in the climate blogosphere. The shoddy methodology of Cook’s study has been shown to be so fatally flawed that well known climate scientists have publicly spoken out against it, “The ‘97% consensus’ article is poorly conceived, poorly designed and poorly executed. It obscures the complexities of the climate issue and it is a sign of the desperately poor level of public and policy debate in this …

No Transparency Keeps Climate Hysteric’s Findings in the Dark

Newsmax By Larry Bell | 30 September 2019 Before we spend tens of trillions of dollars on green new mis-dealings that collapse our economy and decimate our reliable energy infrastructure to save the planet from climatological Armageddon, let’s first consider some unsettling scientific questions regarding any “settled science” basis for hysteria. Top “climategate” figure Dr. Michael Mann filed a legal defamation suit in 2011 against Dr. Timothy Ball, a former climatology professor at the University of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, who had challenged his alarmist sanctimony on this matter. Ball had humorously commented in an interview published in a Winnipeg public …

Follow the (Climate Change) Money

Principia Scientific | September 22, 2019 Written by Stephen Moore The first iron rule of American politics is: Follow the money. This explains, oh, about 80 percent of what goes on in Washington. Shortly after the latest “Chicken Little” climate change report was published last month, I noted on CNN that one reason so many hundreds of scientists are persuaded that the sky is falling is that they are paid handsomely to do so. I said, “In America and around the globe governments have created a multibillion dollar climate change industrial complex.” And then I added: “A lot of people …

The Climate Brainwashing Of Our Youth

Principia Scientific September 20, 2019 Written by Lynne Balzer CCD Editor’s Note: The following is a second excerpted chapter from Lynne Balzer’s new book, The Green New Deal and Climate Change: What You Need to Know, available from Amazon in paperback and Kindle. You can read her previous chapter here. For approximately forty years the AGW establishment has been indoctrinating the public worldwide, and their media accomplices have been only too willing to cooperate. But nowhere is this more evident than in our public schools. Just as the Nazi’s brainwashed the German children, the global warming movement, which hijacked environmentalism, has unfairly used their captive audiences …
