PART 2 PART 1 HERE PART 3 HERE —– 96. Paterson, 1977 Figure 4a shows 10-yr mean [temperature] values from AD 1200 to present [Arctic Canada]. Prominent features are brief warm periods with peaks at 1240 and 1380, cold peaks at 1430, 1520, and 1560, the ‘Little Ice Age’ continuously cold from 1680 to 1730 […]
Beginning in 2003, software engineer William Connolley quietly removed the highly inconvenient references to the global cooling scare of the 1970s from Wikipedia, the world’s most influential and accessed informational source. It had to be done. Too many skeptics were (correctly) pointing out that the scientific “consensus” during the 1960s and 1970s was that the […]

British Antarctic Survey: Antarctic Peninsula has been cooling since 1998 By Dr. Sebastian Lüning and Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt (German text translated/edited by P. Gosselin) Climate skeptics have been accused over and over again of fabricating the climate warming hiatus of the past 15 years. A poor argument because the hiatus has been established as an […]

More “consensus” science: Antarctica not influenced by AGW By Kenneth Richard In recent years, the headlines of common news sources have austerely warned that West Antarctica is melting rapidly: “‘Nothing can stop retreat’ of West Antarctic glaciers” — BBC “The melting of Antarctica was already really bad. It just got worse.” — Washington Post “West […]

2016 Scientific Consensus: Climate Models Aren’t Working By Kenneth Richard In a 2015 editorial on the dire consequences of human-caused climate change, Marcia McNutt, editor of the journal Science, stated with conviction that “the time for debate has ended.” It’s the “action” of reducing our CO2 emissions that is now “urgently needed” instead of debating […]

160 Papers Find Extremely Low CO2 Climate Sensitivity (a) Quantified Low Climate Sensitivity to Doubled CO2 Smirnov, 2018 (2X CO2 = 0.4°C) (2X AnthroCO2 = 0.02°C) From this, it follows for the change of the global temperature as a result at doubling of the concentration of atmospheric CO2 molecules [is] ∆T = (0.4 ± 0.1) […]

Harsh times for the nay-sayers to the sun driving climate, who risk facing academic extinction and joining history’s huge scrap heap of junk science circus performers. CERN just recently confirmed the sun’s impact, via cosmic radiation, on climate-regulating cloud formation. Scinexx.de here writes here: Through the influence of ions from cosmic rays, the effect increases even […]

Climate science is supposed to be settled, right? We are told that there is an overwhelming agreement, or consensus, among scientists that most weather and climate changes that have occurred since the mid-20th century have been caused by human activity — our fossil fuel burning and CO2 emissions in particular. We are told that natural mechanisms that […]

What follows below is a list of 48 scientific papers published this year alone showing that CO2 climate science is not what the press and activist scientists like to have us believe it is. Image: National Academy of Sciences logo Recently I posted here on about 250 papers published in 2015. That post was shared or […]

Updated 27 March 2016 Reader Kenneth Richard presents 282 peer-reviewed papers published in 2015 supporting the skeptical position that natural factors are in fact a dominant climate driver: Feel free to send this list to a political leader. ========================================= Papers Supporting a Skeptical-of-the-Consensus Position for 2015 Solar Influence on Climate (95 papers) http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00024-014-0929-1 We have reconstructed the temperature […]

Recently I posted a number of reports on the powerful correlation between solar activity cycles and historical climate change. Clearly the sun is a driver. The question that remains is what is the mechanism that drives climate. Recently there have been a number of papers showing Danish physicist Henrik Svensmark is on the right path […]
