Hat tip Ron de HaanSo far it’s been a really cold winter for much of Europe, and so you’d think we’d be due for a little relief. Think again! Although western Europe will enjoy some milder temps this weekend, it isn’t going to last long. Already next week the bitter cold will be back. This […]

Reaching an agreement in Cancun is out of reach. Representatives are desperate, and so they will go through every motion to give the appearance they are doing something – anything. They are obligated to go through the formalities of trying, after all. Der Spiegel reports here that Germany’s Environment Minister Norbert Röttgen is now singing a […]

Der Spiegel reports here on the latest ideas from climate activists to revitalize the stalled climate movement, which has run aground over the last year – thanks to Climategate and gross errors in the 2007 IPCC report. Hat-tip oekowatch.org. Yawn – a “loser topic” Surveys have found that the population is bored by the issue as a whole, and […]

Yesterday I mentioned here how Stefan Rahmstorf spends more time organising PR campaigns than he does doing science (understandable I guess, as crystal ball gazing takes only a few minutes per day). It took less than a day for him to confirm this observation. EIKE posted here yesterday that ZDF television did a Frontal drive-by-shooting on the climate skeptics, […]

“I’m a climate pig” – so confesses a climate sinner in a satirical new video clip produced by German public television ZDF. It is a spoof on the whole climate change movement, a parody on the climate religion, and this by an icon of politically correct media, ZDF, no less! The video is also quite hip – thus […]

And as long as the science refuses to clean up its corruption and fraud, many more scandals are sure to join the list in the future. It’s the great swindle that just keeps giving.35 new gates have been added since August. To offer an anecdote, Stefan Rahmstorf wrote a post a while back boasting (prematurely) […]

The German press and politicians are writing off this conference, already. It’s over, and nobody sings “Time to say goodbye” better than Europe does. Sit back and enjoy this lovely tribute to Cancun (pre-recorded). Lovely! Isn’t this supposed to be a sad song? For me it’s a happy one. When the media in Germany are […]

In reader comments yesterday, there was a little discussion about Peter Heller’s recap of the 3rd International Conference on Climate and Energy, here (German), which took place in Berlin last weekend. Heller exposed a spy who had been sent over to check up on what was going down at the denier pow-wow on the other side of […]

Just got back, and here’s a recap of the conference, which I wrote on the train. Yesterday’s first speaker was Vincent Courtillot, who spoke about consensus. As soon as debate is abandoned, he says, then science stops. Overall he says the debate has to open up, and that it is surely poisoned by politics. I thought he […]

This has to be a short post as it’s 1 a.m. and I’m beat. The conference today ended at 9.30 and then I met up with some other German bloggers at the bar for a couple of drinks and good discussion. The first day went very well with a slate of very interesting speakers. I feel it’s beginning to […]

German readers know that after the Tagesschau (8 p.m. national news) on ARD German television, regular programming sometimes, but not very often, gets interrupted by a special news report on some sort of disaster that impacts the entire country. It takes something pretty big for this to happen. This so-called special news report, during prime time, […]
