Fifteen more new studies published in 2024 document meters-higher sea levels across the world during the Mid-Holocene, when CO2 hovered near 260 ppm. There were 45 studies published from 2022 to 2024 indicating sea levels were approximately 2 to 3 meters higher across the world about 7000 to 4000 years ago before declining to today’s […]

More cloudy days forecast for 2050… in sync with the AMO… nothing to do with CO2 Hat-tip: Klimanachrichten In a recent paper published in Nature here, German researchers Horst-Joachim Lüdecke, Gisela-Müller Plath and Sebastian Lüning analyzed changes in sunshine duration by using modern statistical methods for a total of seven monthly time series of sunshine […]

Charts by Kirye Text by Pierre The December, 2024, untampered mean temperature data from the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) are in for Tokyo and its Hachijojima island – there’s been no fall warming in decades for the month of December. First we present the latest plot of December mean temperatures for Tokyo since 1975: Data […]

“Based on the records of the δ¹⁸O stalagmite , the [Holocene Thermal Maximum] occurred between 10.9 and 6.7 ka [Honshu, Japan], reaching its peak temperature (15.0°C) around 7.0 ka. At this time, temperatures were approximately 3°C warmer than present.” – Murata et al., 2025 In a new study, scientists have used oxygen and carbonate isotope […]

How did it get this far? By Fred F. Mueller (EIKE) In Germany, the good times and prosperity are on the brink … stuck economy is stuck in a multi-year recession… producers laying off staff by the hundreds of thousands…costs for energy, food and rents are going through the roof … the outlook for the […]

Scientists presumably intending to report unusual modern warming in response to anthropogenic activities actually indicate all or nearly all modern warming and treeline advances at a Rocky Mountain ice patch site occurred from the 1910s to the 1940s. An interesting observation found in the body of a new study (Pederson et al., 2025) is that […]

Warming effect of leaked hydrogen is almost 12 times stronger than CO2 Hat-tip: Klimaschau We’ve been told that hydrogen is now the savior of the energy transition. At some point, the green energy planners realized that the power grid cannot serve as a storage system. So a storage material without carbon had to be found: […]

Germany’s Klimanachrichten here presents peer-reviewed climate science that shows permafrost is not really a tipping point we need to worry about. Here’s the text of what is reported on the video: “Permafrost soils store a lot of CO2 and are often described as a critical tipping element in the Earth system, which suddenly and globally […]

Studies from Central China, Russia, and Central Europe indicate there was just as much (0r more) warming and drought prior to 1900, or when CO2 concentrations were under 300 ppm. A new 1606 to 2016 Central China winter (minimum) temperature reconstruction (Jiang et al., 2024) reveals cold periods only occurred in 9 years of the […]

How’s the Green New Deal working out in Germany? Not very well at all. Firstly, Germany has been in recession for almost 2 years now – thanks mostly to the policies of Economics Minster Robert Habeck (Green Party), who incidentally has no education in economics, business or finance. The guy just doesn’t know what he’s […]

“An increase in low cloud cover of only about 1% could largely compensate for the doubling of CO2.” – van Wijngaarden & Happer, 2025 Ph.D physicists detail just how insignificant CO2 is as a factor in climate change, revealing that doubling the CO2 concentration from 400 ppm to 800 ppm – a 100% increase – […]

By Kyoji Kimoto Fig.1 below is an energy budget of the earth having an atmospheric window. In this case, OLR (Outgoing Longwave Radiation) is expressed as follows.:OLR= Fw (function of Ts, 17%) + Fu (function of Tu, 83%) Ts – surface temperature, Tu – upper troposphere temperature Therefore, Tu increases as much as ~1C to […]
