The claimed warming rate during the (1998-2001 to 2012-’13) “hiatus” ranged from -0.07°C to +0.17°C per decade. In late 2012, the IPCC had an ongoing dilemma about what to do about the uncooperative global temperatures. The HadCRUT3 data set government bureaucrats had been using since the first report in 1990 actually showed the global mean […]

Is the third La Niña on the way? By Die kalte Sonne (Translated, edited by NoTricksZone) It was supposed to be a groundbreaking forecast, the early prediction of the weather phenomena El Niño and La Niña. Both affect the weather in very different ways. It would have been so nice to know a year in […]

Stefan Rahmstorf has problems with his sources By Die kalte Sonne Translated by NoTricksZone Stefan Rahmstorf, is just as we know him. In a new Spiegel column, the climate researcher from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research attempts a sweeping blow – but apparently without really checking the numerous sources he links to. Recycling […]

It takes 10 years and 22 ppm for CO2 to amass just 0.2 W/m² in total surface energy flux. In contrast, short-wave cloud radiative forcing fluctuations vary in amplitude by ±300 W/m² within hours. Earth’s surface energy imbalance is said to have been positive, +0.6 W/m², during the first decade of this century (Stephens et […]

By Die kalte Sonne One can truly argue that the Champagne of the energy transition is hydrogen. Champagne is so expensive because it can only come from a very specific region, where a brand was built up early on. Connoisseurs know this and drink an equally good Crémant for less money. Hydrogen, on the other […]

VW may have developed a major hydrogen breakthrough…cars could travel 2000 km on a single tank of fuel. VW often rails against hydrogen cars, but the German automaker is reported to have filed a patent that could mean a major breakthrough for hydrogen powered vehicles, reports Patrick Freiwa of the German Kreiszeitung here. Though the […]

The ratio of the annual CO2 increase divided by the annual fossil fuel emission rate increase is referred to as the “airborne fraction.” It has long been assumed the airborne fraction should increase as fossil fuel emissions increase. But the opposite has happened. Scientists have expressed consternation that the airborne fraction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions […]

Climate alarmists hate this inconvenient fact: hundreds of temperature reconstructions show that the northern hemisphere was much warmer over much of the past 10,000 years (Holocene) than it is today. HAT-TIP: Klimaschau here Massive 66 temperature reconstructions One recent study: Arctic glaciers and ice caps through the Holocene: a circumpolar synthesis of lake-based reconstructions by […]

By Die kalte Sonne The third part of the IPCC’s 6th Assessment Report has been published and the response to it varies widely. The BBC speaks of a “now or never moment.” The problem with such terms is that they unfortunately wear out very quickly because they are again more or less deadlines. The BBC […]

In his book “Herdengesundheit” (Herd Health), German physician and molecular geneticist Dr. Michael Nehls says “Vitamin D would have prevented severe cases of disease and also most Covid-related deaths”. He is convinced: Vitamin D is the game-changer and suggests the simple act of eliminating the great Vitamin D deficits much of the population now suffers […]

Failure to correct the “coarse temporal resolution” of pre-1970s maximum daily rainfall data changes the sign of trend analysis from slightly positive to solidly negative in the last century (1921-2020). Those who ascribe to the position that humans can control the weather by engaging in fossil-fuel related activities (such as using planetary-heating smartphones) literally believe […]
