Conservative/socialist prospects By KlimaNachrichten The German parliamentary election has been decided, now it’s all about the possible coalition plans. It seems certain that the link between the economy and the climate will be removed. It had been introduced especially for Robert Habeck (Greens) and, until recently, was a haven for friends and buddies of the […]

“Our findings are unexpected: despite rising sea surface temperatures, global Eo [ocean evaporation/water vapor] has decreased in the most recent decade.” – Ma et al., 2025 A 2024 study published in PNAS again confirmed climate models fail to simulate what happens in the real world with regard to fundamental climate change variables like water vapor, […]

Germans are headed to the polls to elect a new national government today. Little will change….new government will likely escalate Ukraine-Russia conflict as CDU pledges to supply Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine. The parties that currently make up the German federal government are the SPD (Social Democratic Party of Germany) the Greens and the FDP (Free […]

There’s something horribly wrong when you’re afraid to speak your own thoughts When I first moved to Germany in 1990, the country, rich in culture and life, was a great place to live. Optimism was high in the wake of reunification and the collapse of the Iron Curtain. But my oh my how things have […]

It turns out the benefits of rising CO2 concentrations offsets any projected agricultural damage from climate warming. In 2023 US EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) activists dubiously raised the “social cost of carbon” (SCC) five-fold due to unsupportable forecasts of agricultural deterioration and declining crop yields resulting from doubled CO2 and consequent climate warming. The 500% […]

Green pie-in-the-sky dream crash lands on the runway of reality. Like communism did in the 20th century, the green revolution has produced an infinite number of fantasies, promises and unrealistic dreams. Amateurish plans that look wonderful on paper are turning out to be complete nonsense when put to the test of reality. Blackout News reports […]

According to the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV), the hydrogen trains on the Taunusbahn have been temporarily taken out of service and diesel locomotives are being […]

Because the current state-of-the-art general circulation models (GCMs) cannot simulate the trends and variances in global precipitation over the last 84 years (1940-2023), their usefulness should be reconsidered. Hydrological processes – ocean circulation, water vapor, clouds – are key components of climate, easily overshadowing the impact of anthropogenic CO2 emissions by a factor of 2,100 […]

I’ve expanded on yesterday’s topic as I’m concerned that AI may one day develop into its own life and take over. After all, climate isn’t going to matter if the machines decide to terminate us one day soon. I asked AI the following 3 questions: Question No. 1 to Gemini: Could AI develop its own […]

The potential for AI to solve problems is growing exponentially…like a fire set off by a tiny spark on an endless ocean of gasoline. Someday, likely much sooner than we believe, it may itself solve the riddle of how to give itself a conscience – and do it! The result will be a machine that […]

By Frank Bosse Klimnachrichten here (Translated, edited by P. Gosselin) The scientist at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) is an oceanologist and studied physics before his specialist training. He is therefore familiar with thermodynamics and its 2nd law, which states that with every change of state, the “disorder” increases, also known as […]
