Vanzo: “Supermarkets are very large refrigeration systems. …and because of all the complexity and size of these systems, unfortunately they have inherent floor drains.” According to her group, refrigeration leaks in supermarkets in the United States cause warm climate pollution that burns more than 30 million tons of coal every year. There are some steps that…

Eigenvalue replacement from David Turner I talk about the holy cattle, killing the net zero net myth and government's approach to climate change. David Turver Last week, the government responded to the petition, calling for the repeal of the Climate Change Act and demanding the withdrawal of zero targets. This reaction may have been written by a mere stopping oil activist and can be summed up as “the earth is warming, building more windmills.” I'm going to draft an article that refutes their claims, but luckily, the video of my speech to the Holy Cow last month is now available…

Daily Skeptics Chris Morrison There is evidence that onshore wind turbines have caused serious ecological massacres, with increasing attention focused on removing large amounts of insect life. For obvious political, net zero reasons, insect stripping is not a well-funded field of research, but working in Germany in 2016, the loss across the country was 1,200 tons per year. Recently, Heartland Institute inferred annual insect losses worldwide at 13,640,000,000,000 (1.364 billion) insects, which of course can be pointed out that these figures have been outdated for nearly a decade. Other scientific work reports that destroyed flying insects include bees, beetles and…

Kip Hansen's comments – February 10, 2025 – 1800 words There is a long list of things that need to be fixed in our current academic science publishing system. These include: Publishing Prejudice: Trends to publish only positive results lead to incomplete and potentially misleading conclusions of the research results. Editorial Prejudice: In many journals, even the most respected journals, editors determine what to publish, leading many to consider this to be a huge bias against certain scientific views and against others. In some areas, papers that do not support broad consensus in the field of research have no chance…
