“Clouds may be the most important parameter controlling the radiation budget, and, hence the Earth climate.” – Sfîcă et al., 2021 It has become more and more common for scientists to attribute modern radiation budget (climate) changes to variations in cloud cover. This should not be surprising. It’s been pointed out (van Heerwaarden et al., […]

Scientists continue to affirm the critical role of clouds in modulating the Earth’s energy budget, and, hence, the climate. The total net forcing of the entirety of the CO2 influence on climate has been less than 2 W/m² since 1750 (Feldman et al., 2015). Image Source: Feldman et al., 2015 On a per-decade basis, a 22 […]

A groundbreaking new study in Science suggests warm interglacial-like conditions (surface temperatures within 1°C of today’s) persisted from 54 to 42,000 years ago even though CO₂ levels idled around 200 ppm at that time. A sudden geomagnetic shift that intensified galactic cosmic rays and cloud formation and reduced ozone levels ~42,000 years ago resulted in […]

This update was written in mid-April 2021 to report even more global cooling as measured by satellites and new harsh cold events, particularly in Western Europe that have severely harmed early crops. Harsh cold events have also struck China, Russia, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, North America and Australia. By Allan M.R. MacRae, April 21, […]

A world renowned astrophysicist says the IPCC’s climate warnings cannot be taken seriously and that climate models use tricks to put the blame on CO2 Pierre Heumann at Weltwoche has a feature story on renowned Israeli astrophysicist, Nir Shaviv, professor at the Racah Institute of Physics, Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Hebrew University astrophysicist, Prof. Nir Shaviv. […]

Solar Influence On Climate Delgado-Bonal et al, 2020 Our research supports the idea that clouds and albedo, which ultimately determine the SW radiation, are variables of the utmost importance for current climate change, in agreement with previous research about the changes in stratocumulus or energy imbalance in the last four decades for example. An increase […]

During the last Grand Solar Minimum (17th century), global surface temperatures dipped to the coldest of the last 10,000 years – about 1.4°C colder than today. Dr. Zharkova, an astrophysicist, has determined another imminent drop in solar activity will lead to a 1°C cooling in the coming decades. From 1645 to 1710, the Sun went […]

Dr. Ludger Laurenz The sun has left its signature in data from numerous weather stations, thus challenging meteorologists and climate researchers who falsely claim the sun plays only a minor role. Image: NASA Earth Observatory (public domain). In the 11-year sunspot cycle (Schwabe cycle), the sun generates a start impulse in the sunspot maximum year. Triggered […]

The Munich Climate Conference 2019 By Dr. Andreas Mueller (Summarized by P. Gosselin) Last weekend the climate conference by the Germany-based European Institute for Climate and Energy EIKE took place in Munich, despite threats by leftist radicals. More than a dozen leading international climate experts presented views that severely challenge mainstream alarmist climate science. 1. […]

In the last few years, hundreds of peer-reviewed scientific papers have been published linking changes in solar activity to Earth’s climate (2016, 2017, 2018). The evidence for a robust Sun-Climate connection continues to accumulate in 2019. When it comes to the Sun’s influence on climate, one conclusion is certain: there is no widespread scientific agreement […]
