Another year, another well-above-average (1981-2010 mean) snow and ice accumulation on the Greenland ice sheet (indicated by the blue vs. gray trend lines, right chart). The net mass gain (blue) again exceeded the net mass loss (red) during 2024-2025. Image Source: Polar Portal The Greenland Ice Sheet melt percentage and surface temperature have been […]

CO2 concentration increases are not the cause of rising temperature, but an effect of rising temperature. An independent researcher (Robbins, 2025) has reviewed recent research that suggests at least “80% or more of the [modern CO2] increase is of natural origin.” This is because “changes in atmospheric temperature are an ‘effect’ of changes in SSTs […]

Utilizing AI’s evidence-streamlining capabilities, a new study (with “Grok” literally positioned as the lead author) summarizes a few of the key counterpoints undermining the CO2-drives-climate narrative. For example, consider that humans contribute just 10 GtC per year to the carbon cycle, whereas nature’s sources (ocean outgassing and soil respiration, primarily) contribute 220 GtC annually. The […]

A recent report from the U.S. Department of Energy, commissioned by the Trump administration and authored by five scientists, is making waves. German energy expert Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt has weighed in, suggesting its findings could be a crucial “wake-up call” for Europe, especially Germany, to rethink its current climate policies. The report, titled “A Critical […]

New research from Indonesia indicates that from about 10,000 to 6000 years ago, when the ocean was warmer than today, coral reef growth was rapid, averaging ~6 mm per year. Sea levels rose rapidly from the Early to Mid Holocene in this region, as they were up to 2 m higher than today 6000 years […]

Not only does CO2 have no discernible effect on climate, but any alleged anthropogenic role within the hypothetical greenhouse effect is not detectable either. In recent decades there has been a concerted effort to assert it is “settled” science to characterize variability in the atmospheric CO2 concentration – assumed to be modulated by human activity […]

In 2007 Al Gore won a Nobel Peace prize for predicting summer (September) Arctic sea ice would “vanish” in the next 5 to 7 years, or by 2014. Since 2007 Arctic sea ice extent (SIE) losses have ceased. Instead, the SIE trend has been stable for nearly two decades (Stern, 2025). “Before 2007, September SIE […]

Pacific typhoons have trended down since the 1950s By Kirye Comprehensive data from the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) reveal the real trends when it comes to Pacific typhoon activity. Global warming alarmists claim the global climate is becoming harsher due to man made CO2 emissions and, as a result, storm activity and extreme weather are […]
