No one knows Paul Homewood H/T Dennis Ambler From Reuters: BRUSSELS, Feb 10 (Reuters) – Many polluter countries around the world missed the UN deadline as efforts to curb global warming are under pressure . Nearly 200 countries signed the Paris Agreement, facing Monday's deadline, submitting new national climate plans to the United Nations and clarifying their plans to cut emissions by 2035. As of Monday morning, many of the world's largest polluters, including China, India and the EU, have not done so. “The public has the right to expect their government to have a big reaction to the fact…

context Cities in India experience unprecedented warming at an average rate of 0.53°C per decade, while temperature rises exceed 37.73% of non-urban areas[1]. This rapid temperature rise increases the possibility of more frequent and intense extreme weather events. Implementing strong urban adaptation measures to increase resilience is crucial. Local governments must promote these efforts and ensure sustainable urban development. Urban Local Institutions (ULBs) are the first point of contact to openly provide social products. But, like in other regions in developing countries, India's ULB is often under-resourced to take appropriate climate action. There are no specific estimates for urban adaptation…

From Notrickszone By P Gosselin Frank BosseVery happy here(Translation, edited by P. Gosselin) The scientist at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact (PIK) is an oceanographer who has studied physics before his professional training. He is therefore familiar with thermodynamics and its second law, which states that with each change of the state, “diseases” increase, also known as entropy. This is reflected in warming. Growth entropy is the basic feature of our universe. Everything tends to be confused without an investment job. You may be familiar with this phenomenon. The growing entropy also prevents permanent motion of the machine. Each…

At least theoretically, scientific publishing has always been proud of rigorousness…at least theoretically. Peer review should act as a firewall to ensure that only results that meet strict statistical and methodological standards can make it a prestigious journal. [emphasis, links added] I know this process was witnessed by their own eyes, and they spent years reviewing academic papers and funding advice. Statistical significance is the bedrock of scientific validity, and there is no result, and the result is meaningless. I personally rejected many manuscripts that failed to meet these standards, Publication uncertain or statistically trivial results can only confuse the…

The fight to fight climate change is at a critical moment. The Alliance of International and Alliances aims to enable financial institutions, companies and governments to drive financial institutions, companies and governments toward clean and climate-resilient goals to face new and rapid development challenges. picture Net Zero Asset Manager Initiative (NZAM) and Net Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA) Under scrutiny, key players withdraw from political headwinds and threats of legal action, especially in the United States. While these setbacks highlight the sensitivity of financial institutions to political shifts and lobby activities, they also highlight the overview and urgency of these alliance…

Other things rarely mentioned outside of Wuwt are that any estimate of the nominal value of “GMST” should include propagation of error calculations with confidence intervals (aka uncertainty) of the specified probability (usually +/– 2 Sigma ). If done correctly, it will be found that the uncertainty is so great that the possible nominal value has little practical value, except for the possible annual trend marks. Based on rationalization, the accuracy can be improved by large quantities, usually at least 2, sometimes at least 3 significant numbers, usually at least 2, sometimes at least 3 significant numbers, usually annual temperature…

Eric Worrall's paper Should we turn off Western industrial civilization to restore frost? 'Global Quirk': How Our 'Normal' Becomes More Extreme Winter fires and devastating floods – the weather becomes “weird” and more extreme. David Karoly remembers seeing Frost regularly when he was a little boy on his way to school in Melbourne – now, it's an unusual sight for the city. The decline of cold days is one of many weather-related changes that people around the world notice and describe as “weird”. Climate change has increased global temperatures by an average of 1.55 Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels 2024…

The movement of U.S. energy producers through court bankruptcy took another hit on Wednesday, while climate lawsuits in New Jersey were biased. [emphasis, links added] The judge's opinion is the third ruling of this year (Follow Anne Arundel, Annapolis and New York City, and Baltimore in 2024) This makes climate plaintiffs and their claim to the priceless masters of energy producers-package. Judge: The plaintiff's claim is unconstitutional and seizes it The lawsuits in the denial of Garden State add to the growing legal evidence that the constitution’s federal structure does not allow these claims for climate change. In the opinion…

At an Energy Commission hearing Wednesday, House Democrats believe that adding wind and solar farms to the grid is key to achieving that vision. [emphasis, links added] Although renewable energy is considered to be the lowest cost technology available, Democrats also criticized Trump for freezing taxpayer funds in the industry, which they say will prevent the low-cost industry from expanding. Democrats echo those signed executive orders that declared a national energy emergency and revoked former President Joe Biden after the hearings' execution order signed after the term of office. most of the climate agenda. last month, Trump ordered a freeze…
