A Month or Two Does Not a Long-term Trend Make

It was inevitable that when the current extra-strong El Nino resulted in some anomalously hot months the climate alarmists would declare victory, and, sure enough, when Drs. John Christy and Roy Spencer of University of Alabama Huntsville announced that the satellite global temperature data showed February the hottest month in the satellite record (which goes

Forget the Almost-19-Year Global Warming “Pause”? How about 58 Years?

That’s the implication of new analysis of NOAA radiosonde (weather balloon) data by Tony Heller at RealClimateScience.com. Heller begins: In their “hottest year ever” press briefing, NOAA included this graph, which stated that they have a 58 year long radiosonde temperature record. But they only showed the last 37 years in the graph. NESDIS Strategic

The war on fossil fuels threatens not just minor adjustments at the margins of our

Ocean Acidification—Well, Maybe Not So Much

As global temperature remains well below alarmists’ predictions, environmentalists continue to promote devastation from “ocean acidification” as their next rationale for clamping down on CO2 emissions. But as a new article in the ICES Journal of Marine Science makes clear, the actual scientific evidence for such devastation is slim, and the primary reason why so much

How Can You Help Us Pray for the Environment and the Poor March 1–25?

As you may remember, last year the Cornwall Alliance hosted its first Day of Prayer for the Environment and the Poor. Many friends wrote prayers, and those were great guides for others to pray on that day! Many also committed to pray at specific times on March 25. We’re hosting our second annual Day of
