From Rasmussen Reports Voters in recent months have been increasingly skeptical of the idea that global warming is chiefly caused by human activity, but the number who blame long term planetary trends instead has now fallen back to its lowest level in nearly a year. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 40% […]

Climate Panel in Crisis
This is a translation of an article in the Norwegian newspaper Forskning. By Bjornar Kjensli A German climate researcher says that people are beginning to lose faith in climate research, pointing to the IPPC as one of the main causes. Norwegian IPCC veterans disagree about what the organization should do about it. After a winter […]
Global Warming: Obituary and Post Mortem
R.I.P. Global Warming 1992-2010 By Dr. Goldstein 2010 will be remembered as the year Global Warming died. Global Warming was Mann made using clever computer ‘tricks’ and ‘massaged’ data. After slowly developing in the womb of junk science for several years, the primary birth announcement and christening occurred when Al Gore published Earth in the […]
A breakthrough in long range forecasting?
By Paul Hudson I am indebted to Dr Jarl Ahlbeck, from Abo Akademi University, Finland, who contacted me about his fascinating new piece of research relating to this winters severe cold across much of Europe, and a possible link to the very low solar activity we have been experiencing. I am aware that there is […]
Al's Latest Global-Warming Whopper
By Alan Reynolds Al Gore’s defense of global-warming hysteria in Sunday’s New York Times has many flaws, but I’ll focus on just one whopper — where the “Inconvenient Truth” man states the opposite of scientific fact.Gore wrote, “The heavy snowfalls this month have been used as fodder for ridicule by those who argue that global […]
The Hidden Flaw in Greenhouse Theory
By Alan Siddons Insulated by an outer crust, the surface of the earth acquires nearly all of its heat from the sun. The only exit for this heat to take is through a door marked “Radiation.” And therein lies a tale… Recently, I chanced upon an Atmospheric Science Educator Guide [PDF] published by NASA. Aimed at students in grades […]
Senate Environment and Public Works Committee Releases Report on CRU (Climategate) Controversy
Senator Inhofe Intruduces Report to EPW Committee The Minority Staff of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works released a report today titled, “‘Consensus’ Exposed: The CRU Controversy.” The report covers the controversy surrounding emails and documents released from the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU). It examines the extent to which […]
Greenpeace and the Nobel-Winning Climate Report
By Donna Laframboise Considered the climate Bible by governments around the world, the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report is meant to be a scientific analysis of the most authoritative research. Instead, it references literature generated by Greenpeace – an organization known more for headline-grabbing publicity stunts than sober-minded analysis. (Eight IPCC-cited Greenpeace […]
Can Climate Forecasts Still Be Trusted?
Confidence Melting Away: Doubts Grow in Climate Change Debate By Gerald Traufetter The Siachen Glacier is home to the world’s highest crisis region. Here, at 6,000 meters (19,680 feet) above sea level, Indian and Pakistani soldiers face off, ensconced in heavily armed positions. The ongoing border dispute between the two nuclear powers has already claimed […]
Time for Next Eco-Scare Already?!
As Global Warming Movement Collapses, Activists Already ‘Test-Marketing’ the Next Eco-Fear! ‘Laughing Gas’ Crisis? Oxygen Crisis? Plastics? Global Warming Being Thrown Under the Bus as New Replacement Environmental Scare is Sought By Marc Morano As the man-made global warming fear movement collapses and the climate establishment lay in a Climategate ridden tatters, many are asking […]
The Mini Ice Age Starts Here
By David Rose The bitter winter afflicting much of the Northern Hemisphere is only the start of a global trend towards cooler weather that is likely to last for 20 or 30 years, say some of the world’s most eminent climate scientists. Their predictions – based on an analysis of natural cycles in water temperatures […]
Sea icy off part of Antarctica despite fear of melt
By Reuters Sea water under an East Antarctic ice shelf showed no sign of higher temperatures despite fears of a thaw linked to global warming that could bring higher world ocean levels, first tests showed on Monday. Sensors lowered through three holes drilled in the Fimbul Ice Shelf showed the sea water is still around […]
Copenhagen's Dodged Bullet
Modern men have lived through 20 sudden global warmings By Pete DuPont Al Gore said the other week that climate change is “a principle in physics. It’s like gravity. It exists.” Sarah Palin agreed that “climate change is like gravity,” but added a better conclusion: Each is “a naturally occurring phenomenon that existed long before, […]
New Research Finds No Increase in CO2 in Past 150 Years
A paper published in Geophysical Research Letters finds no statistically significant increase in the airborne proportion of anthropogenic carbon dioxide over the past 150 years. Being that climate scientists like those from the Climactic Research Unit at Hadley and alarmist members of the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) claims that increased CO2 is to blame […]
Clouds, Not CO2, Responsible for Climate Change
This 53-minute documentary offers an alternative explanation for climate change that is based upon a relationship between cosmic rays, the sun and the earth’s clouds. Because the findings contridicted the so-called “scientific consensus” that CO2 was responsible for climate change, the author of this study was unable to get his work published in a scientific journal. […]
