A 70-metre-long rotor blade of a V150 wind turbine fell from a height of 123 meters at the Lübbenow wind farm in Germany, heightening concerns about the safety of wind turbines. Blackout News here AI generated symbol image. Hat-tip: Blackout News. The affected turbine had been put into operation only 6 years ago, in 2019. […]

Another day, another new study has sea levels 2.5 to 3.2 m higher than present from 7000 to 6000 years ago. This one is from the Arabian Sea (Oman). Embedded mollusc carbonate deposits dated to the Mid-Holocene have been located far inland from today’s shoreline, documenting the meters-higher relative sea levels at that time. Sea […]

A recent paper explains how a weaker Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) could actually reduce Arctic warming by the end of the century… …despite the overall trend of Arctic amplification (“the disproportionate warming of the Arctic compared to the global average.”) Symbol image. Source: NASA The study shows that a weakening AMOC can partially counteract […]

Another observational analysis finds the shortwave effect of clouds is the “the dominant term of the recent increase in absorbed solar radiation” explaining 2001-2024 warming. According to the authors of a new study, clouds are the primary modulators of the Earth’s shortwave and longwave radiation. Thus, the radiative effects of clouds “play a crucial role […]

Germany’s environmentally destructive technocracy. Hat-tip: Blackout News here. In the Reinhardswald near Kassel, known as the Fairytale Forest, a previously untouched natural and cultural landscape with trees over 500 years old, is today being irreversibly destroyed. Why? To protect nature and the climate, the wind industry and green proponents claim. How it’ll look when it’s […]

Sensationalist weathermen in Germany losing credibility, get mocked and ridiculed. Meteorologists are discovering that if they want to get attention from the media and more clicks and and likes (short term), then all they have to do is announce fictional heatwaves that weather models routinely hallucinate 10-14 days out. “Temperatures could soar to 40°C!” German […]

Scientists have counter-intuitively determined that a melting Antarctic ice sheet serves to mitigate global warming. The anticipated accelerated melting of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) will mean massive amounts of freshwater will enter the Southern Ocean (SO) over the next one hundred years. According to a new study‘s panoply of SOFIA (Southern Ocean Freshwater Input […]

The Germany-base European Institute For Climate And Energy (EIKE) has issued its latest video featuring Antarctica. Good news! The alleged catastrophic warming remains a myth there. It’s as cold as it ever was. Lots of other publications showing Antarctic cooling. See my side bar for all posts about Antarctica. Antarctica experienced record low temperatures in […]

The evidence for a much warmer Mid-Holocene keeps accumulating. According to a recent paleoclimate study, today’s Gahai Lake (China) reconstructed surface sediment warm season temperature is 9.4°C. This is similar to the region’s documented meteorological station temperatures (8.8°C, May-September). The reconstruction’s average Gahai Lake sediment warm season temperatures dating to 8000 to 3500 years ago […]

By Frank Bosse at Klimanachrichten (Translated, edited by P. Gosselin) “Too much electricity is also a danger.” With that headline, Germany’s “n-tv” surprised its readers on Pentecost Sunday. Attentive readers of “Klimanachrichten” already knew this beforehand: The past holiday weekend was a stress test for our electricity grid: The sun is very high, provides a […]

Event to combat heat gets cancelled due to cool, wet weather Image generated by Grok AI To combat climate change, German towns and cities are busily implementing “heat plans”. Germany has ambitious climate neutrality goals, aiming to be climate-neutral by 2045. The lives of millions of people are at risk! The so-called Heat Planning Act […]

Europe is now dryer (and colder) than almost any other period in the last 9000 years. A new European Alps hydroclimate reconstruction spanning the years 8980 to 2014 CE has been derived from the stable isotopes of 192 trees (Arosio et al., 2025). The reconstruction clearly distinguishes centennial-scale warm periods such as the Medieval Warm […]
