NOAA’s Homogenized Temperature Records: A Statistical House of Cards?

By /

Guest column by Charles Rotter For years, climate scientists have assured us that NOAA’s homogenized temperature datasets—particularly the Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN)—are the gold standard for tracking global warming. But what if the “corrections” applied to these datasets are introducing more noise than the signal? A recent study published in Atmosphere has uncovered shocking […]

Does CO2 Warm the Earth and Cause More Extreme Weather, or Not?

By /

The Version 6.1 global area-averaged temperature trend (January 1979 through January 2025)remains at +0.15 deg/ C/decade (+0.22 C/decade over land, +0.13 C/decade over oceans). Source: Dr. Roy Spencer So, does carbon dioxide warm the Earth, or doesn’t it? Are extreme weather events getting more frequent and severe, or aren’t they? Why is there so much

Paper Exposes Pseudoscience Behind Methane War on Farmers

By /

Methane emissions have become a focal point of the climate debate, triggering absurd agricultural regulations negatively affecting farming communities worldwide. Targets for abuse are ruminant animals, including cattle and sheep, that produce methane (CH4) through enteric fermentation – a natural digestive process that converts grass into protein-rich meat and milk for human consumption. Even farmers

Bring realism, not idealism, to science

By /

The new Trump administration is delivering huge changes in the way the federal government operates. One expected result is for the conduct of science programs to reflect realism rather than idealism or political beliefs. This expectation needs to be fulfilled quickly to improve the public’s perception of, confidence in, and acceptance of government policies that must be based on solid scientific

Public Abandons Doomsday Cult for Climate Realism and Practical Environmentalism

By /

For years, climate activists like Al Gore and John Kerry have made bold, headline-grabbing predictions that have failed to materialize. Gore’s 2007 assertion that the Arctic would be ice-free by 2013 stands in stark contrast to reality: Arctic ice has not disappeared despite seasonal fluctuations, and Antarctica sea ice has rebounded from record low levels.

Los Angeles Burns and Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass Fiddle

By /

A half century of disastrous wildfires and flawed land-management policies bring disaster home to Angelenos. Seems only yesterday, doesn’t it, the massive Camp fire (2018) killed 80 Californians and laid waste to some 150,000 acres of northern California. Closer to LA, the 2017 Woolsey fire burned over much of the same areas back in 2017, another big

Scientific Societies Err on ‘Climate Change’

By /

Major scientific organizations’ statements on “climate change” and the conclusions therein form the basis of much of the scientific foundation for governmental, scientific, media, and public concerns on the use of fossil fuels. Trillions of public and private dollars are currently being spent on alternative fuels to “save the planet” from the alleged harm of

Assigning Responsibility for the Tragic Los Angeles Fires

By /

First understand Southern California is naturally dry. Its Mediterranean climate means it rarely rains in the summer and has a limited winter rainy season. Three deserts in the region attest to its dry climate.  As a result, the vegetation around Los Angeles primarily consists of one-hour fuels that can dry in as little as 60
