Press release from the Climate Intelligence Group (CLINTEL) The House of Representatives is in session Climate scientists have issued a shocking statement saying the “climate emergency” is over. The Prague Climate Conference, organized by the Czech branch of the International Climate Information Organization (Clintel), was held at the House of Representatives of the Czech Republic in Prague from November 12 to 13. The meeting “declared and confirmed that the imagined 'climate emergency' has ended.” The communiqué, drafted by prominent scientists and researchers who spoke at the conference, makes it clear that climate scientists have systematically exaggerated the impact of carbon…
From Cliff Mass Weather Blog cliff mass The latest satellite images show the offshore storm is developing rapidly. The visible satellite image around 9am is stunning, with low-level clouds swirling around the low center (orange arrow points to the low center). Amazing. This is an explosion of clouds around the low center. The cycle is obvious. Strong, fast-developing storms have not only an upward motion that produces clouds, but also a strong sinking motion that creates a “trough” of dry air blowing from the southeast. We can look at the “dry trough” using satellite images that reveal the amount of…
From Jennifer Marohasy's blog Jennifer Marohasi The Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) released a media statement earlier today claiming scientifically documented changes in coral cover in the northern Great Barrier Reef, particularly around Lizard Island. Claims include: The coral losses we have documented so far are enormous. Despite these losses, most reefs still have moderate coral cover between 10% and 30%. In fact, the methods used to survey the corals cannot determine whether losses are statistically significant, and surveys only target the perimeter of the reef, specifically avoiding habitats with high coral cover, including the top of the reef.…
President-elect Trump has the opportunity to put national energy policy on a sound and reasonable basis. This will only be possible if the new government learns from past mistakes. [emphasis, links added] During his first term, Trump used a combination of executive orders and agency rulings to halt the regulatory assault on the energy industry that began under President Obama. Many of them have been challenged and struck down by liberal judges. The effect has been to hinder regulatory momentum rather than reverse it. During Trump’s term, the domestic coal industry further entered runoff mode. In 2021, the regulatory onslaught…
Oh look, The Guardian Here we go again, a hot dish of climate hysteria laced with precocious child activism. This time, they rescued a 17-year-old surfer from Brazil to teach us all at COP29 how the ocean is allegedly “warming.” Because, obviously, who needs thermometers, satellite data, or rigorous ocean temperature reconstructions when you have a preteen rowing on a foam board? As a surfer, I'm out in the ocean a lot, and I can definitely feel the ocean getting warmer.https://www.theguardian.com/environment/live/2024/nov/19/cop29-climate-summit-live-updates-world-leaders-in-baku-azerbaijan?CMP=share_btndf1086block-673c55e78f0866cddf1b7a15 Here's what happened: The child “noticed that the ocean was getting warmer,” the Guardian breathlessly reported. Wow, stop the…
News media relies on flawed 'attribution research' to blame climate change for extreme weather
Monday, November 18, The Guardian published an “Explainer” article titled “How do we know the climate crisis is to blame for extreme weather?” This is wrong. [emphasis, links added] Actual data on extreme weather does not support their claims, which are largely based on flawed “attribution studies.” The claim that climate change worsens severe weather events has become mainstream in today’s media. However, a closer look at the data and science behind these claims often reveals inconsistencies that should give us pause. Attribution studies are widely used to link specific extreme weather events to climate change, Rigorous peer review is…
As hot-button issues go, climate change hasn't had the world in trouble lately. Gallup reports that Voters in the 2024 U.S. presidential election ranked climate change as their 21st “extremely important” concern. That's well behind inflation, crime and war, but slightly ahead of crabgrass. The COP29 climate conference in Baku, Azerbaijan, brought no comfort to climate alarmists. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev set the tone by telling delegates that the fossil fuels they hate are “a gift from God.” There are no more gifts for those who reach the summit, because the trillions of dollars trying to “fight” climate change are…
from climaterealism Author: Linny Luken A recent article published by Jacksonville news affiliate News4Jax suggested that children's television programming should promote more climate awareness and environmental content in order to “empower” them to take action on these issues. This simply promotes more radical content, of which there is already plenty. It doesn't help that young people are already fearful of the future. The article, titled “Young Children and Television: Making Screen Time Matter for Kids Concerned about Climate Change,” quickly introduces the idea that most children are worried about their future because of climate change. News4Jax writes that a recent…
Under the Green Deal, Denmark will plant 1 billion trees and convert 10% of farmland into forests
Danish lawmakers on Monday agreed to a deal to plant 1 billion trees over the next two decades and convert 10% of farmland into forests and natural habitats to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers. [emphasis, links added] The government called the agreement “the biggest change in Denmark in more than 100 years.” “Denmark's natural environment will undergo changes not seen since the wetlands were drained in 1864,” said Jeppe Bruus, Denmark's Green Tripartite Minister. The group was set up to implement the Green Deal agreed in June by farmers, industry, unions and environmental groups. According to the agreement, The…
Climate change is accelerating food spoilage, sickening hundreds of millions of people around the world » Yale Climate Relations
Global warming makes it easier for bacteria and other germs to contaminate the food supply, and this little-discussed danger of climate change teaches painful and sometimes life-threatening lessons to hundreds of millions of people every year. One of them is 75-year-old Sumitra Sutar from Haroli village in Maharashtra, India. Five years ago, Sutar was eating leftovers and lentil curry, her staple for more than five decades. This time, she recently recalled, her diet caused her to vomit “at least 15 times a day.” Eventually, she learned the culprit was a food-borne bacteria that produces toxins that can cause vomiting, eye…
