Future Gas Strategy is a betrayal of promised Climate and Environmental Policies
Future Gas Strategy is a betrayal of promised Climate and Environmental Policies Climate scientists reveal data that earth’s heating is accelerating, heat extremes are increasing and 1.5C has been breached faster than forecast. We are failing to treat climate change as the single greatest threat to humanity. At the same time our government has announced […]
Culling for Climate
Culling for Climate Climate research and its misanthropic sect It’s the smell Over the weekend, Bill McGuire, an Emeritus Professor of Geophysical & Climate Hazards at University College London, set X/Twitter afire with the following Tweet, which foresees the “culling of the human population” as the “only realistic” way to address climate change — a […]
Climate models can’t explain 2023’s huge heat anomaly — we could be in uncharted territory
Climate models can’t explain 2023’s huge heat anomaly — we could be in uncharted territory Taking into account all known factors, the planet warmed 0.2 °C more last year than climate scientists expected. More and better data are urgently needed. When I took over as the director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, I […]
Tracking toward mass extinction
Tracking toward mass extinction Where “Two plus two equals five if the party says so” (George Orwell) and when drilling methane wells reduces global warming Having turned a blind eye to climate science, ignoring the evidence that extreme atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄) rise and ocean acidification have led to mass extinctions of species through time, humanity allows an […]
Wrong Again: 50 Years of Failed Eco-pocalyptic Predictions
Wrong Again: 50 Years of Failed Eco-pocalyptic Predictions Photo Credit: Getty Thanks go to Tony Heller, who first collected many of these news clips and posted them on RealClimateScience. SUMMARY Modern doomsayers have been predicting climate and environmental disaster since the 1960s. They continue to do so today. None of the apocalyptic predictions with due dates […]
October 2022: Earth’s 4th-warmest October on record
October 2022: Earth’s 4th-warmest October on record Europe had its warmest October on record, as did Northern Hemisphere land areas. Sunshine bathes government buildings at Whitehall Street in London on the unusually mild afternoon of Friday, October 28, 2022. The high of 66 degrees Fahrenheit at Kew Gardens followed 70 degrees on October 27. Some […]
Climate scientists: Ban solar geoengineering
Climate scientists: Ban solar geoengineering ‘The risks are poorly understood and can never be fully known’ The following open letter was issued by an international coalition of prominent scientists and governance scholars on January 17, 2022. It calls for an international treaty to outlaw attempts to reduce global heating by blocking sunlight from reaching earth. […]
If all 2030 climate targets are met, the planet will heat by 2.7 C this century
If all 2030 climate targets are met, the planet will heat by 2.7 C this century Corals will not likely survive more than 2℃ global warming. Credit: Shutterstock If nations make good on their latest promises to reduce emissions by 2030, the planet will warm by at least 2.7℃ this century, a report by the […]
Zero Carbon Sooner—Revised case for an early zero carbon target for the UK
Zero Carbon Sooner—Revised case for an early zero carbon target for the UK Cover image: Anthony Gormley’s ‘Another Place’ in Liverpool; photographed by Donald Judge / flickr.com (CC-BY 2.0); modified Summary This paper is an update of an earlier briefing note[1], revised to take account of new findings from the IPCC’s updated 6th Assessment Report (AR6). The broad […]
Why 4°C?
Why 4°C? Climatologists say that civilization can’t survive global warming of 4oC over the pre-industrial average. Some climatologists even say that civilization can’t survive 3oC. A temperature increase of 4oC over the pre-industrial average sounds fairly trivial so why would that cause civilization to collapse? First, for Americans, a 4.0oC temperature increase corresponds to a […]
The Scientists Are Terrified
The Scientists Are Terrified A survey of the world’s top climate researchers shows a stark finding: Most expect catastrophic levels of heating and damage soon—very soon. Photo: Fadel Senna/AFP (Getty Images) A new Nature survey shows a majority of the world’s leading climate scientists expect “catastrophic” impacts in their lifetimes driven by rising greenhouse gas emissions. Brilliant […]
How Climate Scenarios Lost Touch With Reality
How Climate Scenarios Lost Touch With Reality A failure of self-correction in science has compromised climate science’s ability to provide plausible views of our collective future. The integrity of science depends on its capacity to provide an ever more reliable picture of how the world works. Over the past decade or so, serious threats to […]
Is the National Observer intentionally ignoring reports by/about leading climate scientists?
Is the National Observer intentionally ignoring reports by/about leading climate scientists? Why has Observer reporter not responded to my email promoting work of Dr. Nate Hagens? On May 31, I sent a polite email to National Observer reporter Chris Hatch in response to his open invitation to readers to share “comments or suggestions” related to his efforts as […]
By Neil Halloran: A Skeptical Look at Climate Science
By Neil Halloran: A Skeptical Look at Climate Science I haven’t had time to write a new essay, and I wanted a new post so newcomers don’t assume un-Denial.com has shifted its focus to Covid, which is a confusing space populated by crazy people speculating about the intentions of our incompetent leaders. Thank you to reader […]
Climate scientists: concept of net zero is a dangerous trap
Climate scientists: concept of net zero is a dangerous trap Sometimes realisation comes in a blinding flash. Blurred outlines snap into shape and suddenly it all makes sense. Underneath such revelations is typically a much slower-dawning process. Doubts at the back of the mind grow. The sense of confusion that things cannot be made to fit […]
