Share this…FacebookTwitterAccording to the calculations of Dr. James Hansen, the radiative influence derived from the increase in CO2 during the last deglaciation was so negligible that it equated to “a third of energy required to power a honey bee in flight” (Ellis and Palmer, 2016).

Share this…FacebookTwitterThe Greenhouse Effect On Hiatus An unheralded but significant 2016 scientific paper – “A Hiatus of the Greenhouse Effect” – is now publicly available. Scientists have found the greenhouse effect’s (GHE) influence on planetary temperatures went on “hiatus” during 1992-2014. The estimated GHE radiative influence for these 22 years was a slightly negative -0.04 […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterThere are large regions of the globe where observations indicate there has been no warming (even cooling) during the last decades to century. Climate models rooted in the assumption that fossil fuel emissions drive dangerous warming dismiss these modeling failures and project temperature increases of 3° – 10°C by 2100 for these same regions […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterClimate models postulate that increasing CO2 concentrations will intensify the Earth’s water cycle. This intensification is believed to eventually result in dangerous (3°C and up) global warming. Observational evidence has thus far falsified these IPCC-endorsed claims. Image Source: IPCC WG1 According to climate models, water vapor and precipitation trends were supposed to have been […]

Share this… Facebook Twitter In two new papers, scientists affirm a strong connection between solar activity and the Earth’s climate, as temperatures are said to be 3 times more sensitive to solar forcing than CO2 forcing. With the advent of a grand minimum in the coming decades, a consequent “dampening” of temperatures (and slowing of […]

His latest scientific paper suggests that the traditional “absorption band” model for calculating the effect of atmospheric CO2 during the radiative transfer process is flawed. New calculations reveal that the climate’s sensitivity to a […]

Share this… Facebook Twitter The abysmal track record of computer models in simulating climate trends has increasingly been highlighted in the scientific literature. Recently published papers indicate that in some cases climate models actually get it right zero percent of the time (Luo et al., 2018; Hanna et al., 2018), or that hydrological models are off […]

Share this… Facebook Twitter There’s brand new published, peer-reviewed literature out showing that CO2’s impact on global warming is far less than what was once previously suggested. Time to end the climate hype. Of course some alarmism-addicted readers will insist that we ignore these findings, and blindly accept the alarmist scenarios. CO2 getting pushed aside […]
