Climate science/renewable energy critic Rainer Hoffmann has researched the literature on mean global surface temperature. Stunningly, he shows that something is not right with the figures coming from the world’s leading climate experts. The figures tell us the mean global surface temperature has dropped 1°C over the last 25 years. At that rate, we’ll be in an ice age […]

After a foray in a cult, one of the first steps on the path back to reality is the process of deprogramming. Could it be that this step is now being self-administered by the German mainstream media? It appears so. Harald Martenstein: “…it seems they are allowed to get away with everything.” Photo credit: Lumu, GNU […]

What follows is the 2nd part of the Weltwoche interview. Yesterday in Part 1 we read: 1. Stocker said the theory claiming global warming causes cold European winters is not robust. 2. Stocker was caught fibbing in claiming that the projections of IPCC models were “extremely good”. 3. Stocker had ignored inconvenient science from his […]

Dr. Sebastian Lüning was given permission to republish the interview at the Die kalte Sonne site here, adding his rebuttals and corrections. Lüning writes: “Thomas Stocker showed a number of memory lapses in […]

This is a big victory for European consumers. Looks like the big foolish rain dance for a better climate is off, at least for the time being. The Wall Street Journal reports: The European Union’s flagship program to fight global warming suffered a major blow Tuesday when lawmakers rejected a proposal aimed at shoring up the […]

Global investment in renewable energies in the first quarter of this year plummeted a whopping 22%, falling to $40 billion, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance here. The consequences for many companies and their employees of course will be calamitous to say the least. So many employees had been given the false promise of green […]

Saturday I posted about a recently published study by He YuXin et al, which happened to catch the watchful eye of Sebastian Lüning of kaltesonne.de/. Lüning comments on what the paper means for Michael Mann: ================================================= Medieval warmth at the northern Tibetan Plateau casts doubt on Michael Mann’s temperature map By Dr. Sebastian Lüning In […]

Here’s more proof that global warming causes cooling. I guess all that heat up there in the Arctic really does disrupt and cause the northern hemisphere to cool. The models also (now) say so.

At his Die Welt blog, journalist Ulli Kulke has a commentary on the recent scientific study issued by the NOAA and its latest findings concerning the US drought last year, which now states that it was due to just plain bad, natural weather and was not man-made. Kulke calls the findings embarrassing for President Obama, who now […]
