Oops…Cleaner Fuels Mean Less Clouds, More Warming!

Better air temporarily warms the atmosphere Image: NASA (pubic domain) By Klimanachrichten An interesting article in Spektrum about a development that we have already reported on here. Apparently there is a connection between cleaner fuels for ships and cloud formation, which means more sunshine and higher temperatures. However, the reduced content of atmospheric sulphate aerosols […]

Why German Farmers Are Protesting: They Refuse To Be The Government’s Cash Cow

The air is getting awfully thin for Germany’s Socialist/Green government. Never in postwar history has a ruling government been so unpopular, and there’s a reason for that.  The reasons tens of thousands of farmers and truckers have blocked major traffic arteries everywhere and paralyzed the country is because of the governments insatiable appetite for tax […]

A 'Major Surprise' Nature Study Finds Phasing Out Fossil Fuels Will Lead To Decades Of Warming

A ‘Major Surprise’ Nature Study Finds Phasing Out Fossil Fuels Will Lead To Decades Of Warming

“We would expect from a 100% switchover from fossil fuels to zero-emission renewables…net radiative heating would increase drastically.” – Nair et al., 2023 Using observational data gleaned from COVID-19 lockdowns in South Asia, scientists publishing in a Nature journal (Nair et al., 2023) have now determined the ongoing switch to zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions […]

China To Double Coal-Fired Power Plant Capacity...Aims To Avoid European, US Blunders

China To Double Coal-Fired Power Plant Capacity…Aims To Avoid European, US Blunders

China continues to barrel ahead with the new construction, expansion of coal fired power plants In Germany, while radical groups of climate-crazies like Extinction Rebellion and Last Generation are gluing themselves to road and airport tarmac surfaces to rescue the planet from the myth that is the climate catastrophe, China is planning to double the […]

Green Fuel Folly: Forest Thinning (For Wood Pellet Production) Has A Profound Surface Warming Impact

Green Fuel Folly: Forest Thinning (For Wood Pellet Production) Has A Profound Surface Warming Impact

4 recent studies tell us that forest thinning for the production of wood pellets and clear cutting for wind parks are really dumb ideas.  Reforestation and afforestation (R&A) are among the most prominent ideas for the sequestration of CO2 and thus viewed by alarmists as a climate solution. But others doubt forests play much of […]

Official Data: In Terms Of Precipitation; In Austria There's Been No Climate Change At All In 140 Years

Official Data: In Terms Of Precipitation; In Austria There’s Been No Climate Change At All In 140 Years

The Austrian Alps have seen no trend change in terms of precipitation since 1880, official data show.  Climate alarmists have climate horror scenarios for every corner of the globe, and that includes the Austrian Alps. Climate models warn that snow will disappear soon and even gravely harm the ski industry unless we vaccinate the climate […]

New Study: Modelers Got Aerosols All Wrong...CO2 Climate Sensitivity Likely Another 0.4°C Overstated!

New Study: Modelers Got Aerosols All Wrong…CO2 Climate Sensitivity Likely Another 0.4°C Overstated!

Die kalte Sonne reports on a new aerosol study by Liu et al. The results are a major blow to the high greenhouse-gas climate sensitivity modelers. IPCC scientists have a favorite wild card they often use to explain serious model discrepancies: aerosols. Mysterious cooling events in the past are often explained away by aerosols from […]

Cooling In The Pipeline? Low Solar Activity, Wild Fire Smoke, La Niña All Setting Up A Cooled 2022?

Cooling In The Pipeline? Low Solar Activity, Wild Fire Smoke, La Niña All Setting Up A Cooled 2022?

Here are 3 reasons why global surface temperatures will probably see continued cooling over the coming year. 1. La Nina back in the forecast NASA continues to project La Niña conditions into 2022 thus suggesting vigorous globally time-shifted cooling conditions: Source. NASA The NOAA-ENSO forecast also shows La Niña conditions taking hold again later this […]

Stuttgart Air Quality Measurements Show Diesel Engine Bans Have Had No Impact!

Green lie gets exposed… With a Corona lockdown in Stuttgart and diesel engine bans, one would think the fewer diesel cars on the streets would lead to less air pollutants. But far from it! Air measurement values remain unchanged through the significantly reduced traffic volume! The article first appeared at TE here, hat-tip EIKE. (Translated/edited […]

Green Revolution Hurting Environment, Planet Far More Than Helping, Newly Released Video Shows

Here’s a newly released 7-minute video that needs to be spread throughout the world. It illustrates how green energies are much worse for the planet than claimed. More pollution, destruction of nature and exploitation of poor countries – just so elitists in rich countries can feel like they are good stewards of the planet. This […]

Lock Down Exposes Diesel Ban Folly As Air Quality Fails To Improve …Other Factors In Play

Cars are not as dirty as claimed. Once again we find in Germany another article reporting how pollution from diesel cars has been massively over-hyped. Despite a massive reduction in car traffic due to the COVID-19 lock down, nitrogen oxide levels still remain high, reports German weekly FOCUS here. The air is no cleaner than […]

Corona Exposes Inconvenient Truth: Pollution From Diesel Cars Grossly Over-hyped By German Activists

Corona Exposes Inconvenient Truth: Pollution From Diesel Cars Grossly Over-hyped By German Activists

Roland Tichy’s site here reports that although car traffic in the German city of Stuttgart has decreased significantly due to COVID-19, the drop in NO2 content has only been “slight”. So it cannot be the evil diesel engine cars that are “choking” our cities. Image: NASA here (public domain)  “The Corona crisis is bringing it […]
