L.F. Khilyuk, and G.V. Chilingar Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, US Sections, Los Angeles, USA Email: gchilin@usc.edu ABSTRACT Evolution of carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere does not contribute to global warming. INTRODUCTION It is hot (very hot) in the most of Europe and North America and also in Australia, India, and Pakistan. This year the atmospheric heat broke all the records. There are some recent samples of the record high temperatures (Yahoo News, July 26, 2019): 42.6 C (108.7 F) in Paris, 39.9 C (103.8 F) in Belgium, 40.5 C (104.9 F) in Germany, and 38.8 C (101 …

Plate Climatology | James Edward Kamis | January 19, 2017 Figure 1  North tip of Antarctic Continent including Larsen Ice Shelf Outline (black line), very active West Antarctica Rift / Fault System (red lines), and currently erupting or semi-active volcanoes (red dots). Progressive bottom melting and break-up of West Antarctica’s seafloor hugging Larsen Ice Shelf is fueled by heat and heated fluid flow from numerous very active geological features, and not climate change. This ice shelf break-up process has been the focus of an absolute worldwide media frenzy contending man-made atmospheric global warming is at work in the northwest peninsula …

PSI October 21, 2019 | Written by Kenneth Richard Mainstream climate science claims CO2 molecules “slow down the rate of heat loss from the surface” as a blanket does. And yet the rate at which a CO2 molecule retains or slows down heat loss is, at most, a negligible 0.0001 of a second. A CO2 concentration of 300 ppm versus 400 ppm will, therefore, have no detectable impact. SkepticalScience, a blog spearheaded by climate science “consensus” advocate John Cook, is widely considered the explanatory guidebook for the anthropogenic global warming movement. The blog claims CO2 molecules, with a representation of four …

Principia Scientific | Oct. 18, 2019 Written by Roger W. Cohen, PhD If 20th century warming was indeed exceptional, then previous warming episodes and all natural variations must have been smaller. Interestingly, in the first IPCC report of 1990, we saw this graphic (above)  of global temperature since about the year 1000. There is a strong Medieval Warming Period, a deep Little Ice Age, and a sporadic warming trend since around 1700. But when we get to the 2001 Report, we are presented with the Hockey Stick. It was based on various proxy “thermometers” such as tree rings. It seems …

Principia Scientific | October 16, 2019 Carbon dioxide emissions are making the Earth greener and more fertile, a United Nations (UN) climate scientist has said. In a paper for the Global Warming Policy Foundation, Dr Indur Goklany, who has previously represented the United States on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), says that the rising level of carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere “is currently net beneficial for both humanity and the biosphere generally”. The benefits are real, whereas the costs of warming are uncertain,” he adds. “Carbon dioxide fertilises plants, and emissions from fossil fuels have already had a …

NASA Oct. 12, 2017 RELEASE 17-082 Image: The last El Nino in 2015-16 impacted the amount of carbon dioxide that Earth’s tropical regions released into the atmosphere, leading to Earth’s recent record spike in atmospheric carbon dioxide. The effects of the El Nino were different in each region. Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech A new NASA study provides space-based evidence that Earth’s tropical regions were the cause of the largest annual increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration seen in at least 2,000 years. Scientists suspected the 2015-16 El Nino — one of the largest on record — was responsible, but exactly how has …
