CERN’s Jasper Kirkby On The Newest Unpublished Results Of CLOUD: “The Results Are Very Interesting”

The Latest On The CLOUD Experiment at CERN By Sebastian Lüning and Fritz Vahrenholt On May 10, 2013, at the online Austrian ORF, there was a rare interview with the CLOUD Experiment director of the European European Organization for Nuclear Research, Jasper Kirkby. Within the scope of the CLOUD project, it is being investigated to what extent solar [...]

Baffled German Government Concedes! “Global Warming Has Stopped…Warming Pause Is Remarkable…Unexpected”

Baffled German Government Concedes! “Global Warming Has Stopped…Warming Pause Is Remarkable…Unexpected”

Green Radio of the Umweltbundesamt – UBA - (German Federal Department of the Environment) recently had a radio interview with Henrik Kirchhof, some climate expert for the UBA I guess. Topic: Why has there been no warming in 15 years? The German government finally concedes. The host of the interview starts by telling the audience that “climate scientists [...]

Sudden European Temperature Plunge Over The Last Decade…Are We On The Brink Of A Little Ice Age?

Sudden European Temperature Plunge Over The Last Decade…Are We On The Brink Of A Little Ice Age?

Temperature change in perspective By Ed Hoskins, MA (Cantab)  BDS (Lond) The UK Met Office long term Central England Temperature record has kept a continuous and consistent data set since the 1660s. It appears to be reliable and to have maintained its quality. It has not been adjusted as have so many other official temperature [...]

Russian Scientists Warn Global Temperatures To Fall 1.5°C By 2050. Strong Doubts About Warming

Russian Scientists Warn Global Temperatures To Fall 1.5°C By 2050. Strong Doubts About Warming

Yesterday Germany’s No. 1 daily (circulation over 3.5 million), Bild online, carried the shock headline story: “Russian scientist sees next ice age approaching. Starting in 2014 it will start getting colder and colder +++ migration of people cannot be excluded“. Renowned Russian scientist Chabibullo Abdussamatov warns of a harsher global climate beginning in 2014 and extending [...]

Lockwood’s “Dubious” Solar Activity/Central-European Climate Correlation Now Confirmed By 5 Winters In A Row!

Lockwood’s “Dubious” Solar Activity/Central-European Climate Correlation Now Confirmed By 5 Winters In A Row!

Do you recall Lockwood’s paper? Central Europeans right now are scratching their heads, wondering how on Earth they are still shoveling snow past Easter. March in Germany, according to the German Weather Service DWD, was the 6th coldest since measurements began in 1881. Britain has just seen it’s coldest March in 100 years. In fact [...]

Flagship Daily DIE WELT Stuns Germany: “Scientists Warn Of Ice Age”, Cites New Peer-Reviewed Russian Study

Mentioning the lethal “100-year, record-smashing” spring cold and snow spreading across Europe over the past month has for the most part been avoided like the plague by Germany’s mainstream media. The silence over the record cold and frost, which has killed thousands and cost billions, has been ear-ringing. Yet some leading dailies are breaking ranks, and have [...]

Leading International Geologist Peter Ziegler: “Sun Is Driving Climate, Not CO2.”

Leading International Geologist Peter Ziegler: “Sun Is Driving Climate, Not CO2.”

Dr. Hans Labohm writes at the Dutch Standaard that one of the world’s leading geologists, Peter Ziegler of Switzerland, recently made a presentation on the factors driving climate. It’s not CO2, he said.  Peter Ziegler. Photo from Ziegler family archives. GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version. Labohm writes at the Dutch Standaard blog [...]

Vahrenholt & Lüning: “Today’s IPCC Is Clueless…IPCC Models Unable To Reproduce Documented Climate Of The Past”

Sun reveals its full climate power: Equator-pole temperature gradient fluctuates in sync with the sun By Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt and Dr. Sebastian Lüning (Translated with permission by P Gosselin) The geological factual basis is clear: Fluctuations in solar activity significantly influenced the development of the climate throughout the history of the Earth.   Figure 1: [...]

German Meteorology Professor Expects Cooling For The Decades Ahead…”Climate Protection Is Ineffective”

Meteorologist Prof. Dr. Horst Malberg has an article posted at the European Institute for Climate and Energy (EIKE) here. He tells us we ought to be preparing for a cooler 21st century first half. Meteorologist Prof. Horst Malberg. Photo credit: EIKE Professor Malberg starts his article by showing and discussing various solar activity charts. Today I’m [...]

Monsoons In China Fluctuate In Sync With Solar Activity…No Correlation With CO2

Monsoons In China Fluctuate In Sync With Solar Activity…No Correlation With CO2

There are hundreds of studies showing that climate fluctuations of the past were in sync with solar activity. Yet the CO2 warmists absurdly insist that the sun plays no more role in climate change today.

Photo source: Weatherbell Contrary to what a few crackpot physicists tell us, it’s not because of a relatively small 2 million sq km area of less ice in September, but because [...]

Solar Influence On Winter Severity In Central Europe, Dispels Junk Claim A Warm Arctic Causes Cold Winters

Solar Influence On Winter Severity In Central Europe, Dispels Junk Claim A Warm Arctic Causes Cold Winters

We’ve been hearing a lot of bogus “model science” asking us to believe the preposterous notion that a warm Arctic and reduced sea ice there “could” lead to bitter cold winters across Europe and North America. In summary the new science insists warming leads to more cold. Now there’s a new paper out in the [...]

Vahrenholt “Provokes” Stocker By Calling Mann’s Hockey Stick “Fake” And Challenging IPCC

Today I thought I’d bring up one or two of the highlights of the Bern Debate between Fritz Vahrenholt and IPCC author Thomas Stocker. One highlight is Stocker getting all huffy and puffy about Vahrenholt calling Mann’s hockey stick a “Fälschung” (fake). Bern Debate now on Youtube! At the 4:50 mark Vahrenholt presents the infamous [...]

Scientists Say A Grand Episode In Solar Activity Started in 2008 – But No Support For A Grand (Maunder-Type) Minimum

Scientists Say A Grand Episode In Solar Activity Started in 2008 – But No Support For A Grand (Maunder-Type) Minimum

Research Council Of Norway Recommendation: More Research On Natural Causes Of Climate Change!

This just released prestigious report is not going to please the IPCC scientists. It calls for a profound change of course in climate research. Snip of the report’s front cover. The Research Council Of Norway has conducted a comprehensive evaluation (see right side bar) of the status of climate science in Norway and released their results. [...]
