Newly published macrofossil discoveries from 4 papers strongly suggest that modern warmth may still be about 3°C colder than nearly all of the last 10,000 years. Image Source: Leunda et al. (2018) 1. Permafrost is still present today in a region that was permafrost-free throughout the Holocene (until the onset of the Little Ice Age) According […]

Winter has arrived much earlier than normal this year, particularly across North America, where cold records have been shattered. This Thanksgiving is in fact going down as one of the coldest ever on record across the Northeast. The Washington Post here, for example, reports that Thanksgiving and Black Friday 2018 will be remembered for a […]

Fuel price uprisings spread across Belgium, France… hundreds injured, one dead, major highways blocked, property and windows smashed by “yellow vest” fuel price protesters. The fact that fuel prices in Europe are sky-high is no accident. They have been willed that way by cash and regulation-hungry governments. Moreover, the threatened actions aimed at curbing the […]

The evidence that “global” warming has not been global in scale continues to accumulate. Two more new reconstructions from the Western Pacific (He et al., 2018) and subpolar North Atlantic (Orme et al., 2018) indicate that modern temperatures have continued to decline since the onset of the Little Ice Age. These add to the nearly […]

Ice core study: Industrialization not the cause of the end of the Little Ice Age By Dr. Sebastian Lüning and Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt (German text translated/edited by P. Gosselin) A few days ago here at our blog we presented a study criticizing climate models and false soot data: These data clearly show that industrial soot could hardly […]

Recently I presented here an article on filmmaker Marijn Poels’s new documentary that featured former Princeton physicist Freeman Dyson, who stated that the theories of climate science are “very confused” and that “the models are wrong”. But perhaps the most fascinating point the film brings up was presented at the very end: A Russian scientist […]

In the scientific literature, wind energy’s effects on human populations has increasingly garnered an ignominious reputation in recent years. For example, wind energy is claimed to (1) lead to “genocide” and “green grabbing”, (2) harm human health and well-being, and (3) lower home property values. Image Source: Tonin, 2017 Wind energy “green-grabbing” leading to “genocide”, […]
