Exposed: How Climate Racketeers Aim to Force Us into Smart Gulags
Exposed: How Climate Racketeers Aim to Force Us into Smart Gulags In Australia and NZ, “managed retreat” schemes could force people out of homes that “climate change” models render “uninsurable” Shocking evidence is emerging from Australia and New Zealand of how the climate scam is being used to impose a techno-totalitarian smart-city future. The criminocratic […]
Hidden threat: Global underground infrastructure vulnerable to sea-level rise
Hidden threat: Global underground infrastructure vulnerable to sea-level rise Dr. Shellie Habel of the University of Hawai’i measures the salt concentration of emerging groundwater in a basement in Waikiki. Credit: Chloe Obara, University of Hawai’i As sea levels rise, coastal groundwater is lifted closer to the ground surface while also becoming saltier and more corrosive. […]
Melting polar ice sheets will alter weather
Melting polar ice sheets will alter weather Melting ice off the coast of Greenland. Image: By Frank Busch on Unsplash Sea level rise and melting polar ice sheets may not cause a climate catastrophe, but they will certainly change weather patterns unpredictably. LONDON, 15 February, 2019 – The global weather is about to get worse. The melting polar ice sheets […]
Rising Sea Levels – by How Much, and Why? A Current Commentary.
Rising Sea Levels – by How Much, and Why? A Current Commentary. The following was published in the journal Science Progress recently, of which I am an editor. Since this blog typically covers issues of environment and energy, I am including the present topic, which I hope will be of interest to its regular readers, […]
Some Thoughts On Climate Change
Some Thoughts On Climate Change A new IPCC report written and edited by 91 scientists from 40 countries who analyzed more than 6,000 scientific studies says we’re looking at climate catastrophe as early as 2040 unless changes are made worldwide on a scale and speed which has no historic precedent. $54 trillion worth of damage is predicted […]
Antarctic melt accelerates sea level rise
Antarctic melt accelerates sea level rise While renewable energy is on a roll—setting records in Europe over the last few months[1], and racking up impressive numbers in capacity buildout in 2017 [2], it’s easy to forget what is happening behind the scenes. Extreme weather gets all the headlines: the wild fires in Canada and Sweden […]
Climate Change & How It Has Made Us Who We Are Today
Climate Change & How It Has Made Us Who We Are Today All we ever hear is how Climate Change is caused by humans and it will destroy the world. They have been yelling that New Orleans and Miami will be UNDER WATERwithin the next century as rising sea levels put more than 400 US […]
Abrupt Sea Level Rise Looms As Increasingly Realistic Threat
Abrupt Sea Level Rise Looms As Increasingly Realistic Threat Ninety-nine percent of the planet’s freshwater ice is locked up in the Antarctic and Greenland ice caps. Now, a growing number of studies are raising the possibility that as those ice sheets melt, sea levels could rise by six feet this century, and far higher in the […]
Cloud blanket warms up melting icecap

Rasmussen via Flickr New study shows that up to 30% of the Greenland icecap melting is due to cloud cover that is helping to raise temperatures − and accelerate sea level rise. LONDON, 30 January, 2016 – Researchers have […]
World’s Oceans Could Rise Higher, Sooner, Faster Than Most Thought Possible
World’s Oceans Could Rise Higher, Sooner, Faster Than Most Thought Possible New research shows that consensus estimates of sea level increases may be underestimating threat; new predictions would see major coastal cities left uninhabitable by next century ‘Roughly 10 feet of sea level rise—well beyond previous estimates—would render coastal cities such as New York, London, […]
We May Have Already Committed Ourselves to 6-Meter Sea-Level Rise
We May Have Already Committed Ourselves to 6-Meter Sea-Level Rise Even if humanity were to stop throwing carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere today, a catastrophic rise in sea levels of six meters may be inevitable. Two previous prehistoric interglacial periods, in which the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere was believed to be […]
The Cimmerian Hypothesis, Part Two: A Landscape of Hallucinations
The Cimmerian Hypothesis, Part Two: A Landscape of Hallucinations Last week’s post covered a great deal of ground—not surprising, really, for an essay that started from a quotation from a Weird Talesstory about Conan the Barbarian—and it may be useful to recap the core argument here. Civilizations—meaning here human societies that concentrate power, wealth, and population […]
