Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash Recently headlines in mainstream media such as the BBC, CNN, Forbes, and The Washington Post blared the consistent message that July 4, 2023 was the hottest day in history, or at least in the past 125,000 years. The headlines and stories show just how gullible the media is, or alternatively, that they are so wedded to the climate crisis narrative that they would publish a story they know is impossible to verify and is probably … [Read more...]
The Truth About Canada’s Wildfires
Canada’s wildfires continue to burn, and with smoke from those fires darkening the skies in the United States, the mainstream media are covering it extensively. A common underlying theme in almost every report is that climate change is partly to blame for the size of Canada’s wildfires this season and that such fires and the heat contributing to them are a portent of things to come if we don’t stop using fossil fuels.

Global Warming Saves Lives
[Editor’s note: You’ve heard there are “lies, damned lies, and statistics”? That it’s easy to lie with statistics—even if your numbers are true? Those aphorisms are absolutely true. And what our friends at the CO2 Coalition reveal in this brief article is a stellar example. Lancet, which is among the most respected medical journals, should be ashamed to have published the incredibly deceptive graph shown on the left. Thanks to the CO2 Coalition, the graph on the right corrects it. Climate … [Read more...]
The Urban Heat Island Effect in GHCN Station Temperatures: Urban Locations Show Large Spurious Warming Effects
It has been a while since I have posted progress on our DOE-funded research into the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in the GHCN station temperatures used to monitor land-based global warming. It should be remembered that everything I post on this subject is (as is usually the case) a work in progress. What I am addressing is the existence of localized long-term warming associated with population increases which are over and above the large-scale warming due to humanity’s greenhouse gas … [Read more...]
Education Game-Changer
Last week, for the first time, a major state formally rebuked one of the core elements of the Left’s scheme to undermine our education system (see below). If other states are paying attention, this could be the beginning of an extraordinarily significant awakening and rejection of the stranglehold that the Left now has on our K-12 education system. It’s no secret that the Left plans to take down America. Their number one strategy to bring this about is to corrupt the education system. … [Read more...]
Great Car Reset: Biden’s EPA to Release Strict New Fed Emissions Standard
The Great Car Reset has arrived: Our transportation system is being intentionally collapsed; (and our freedom of movement is being stripped away) EVs are to be forced upon YOU without a vote! This is the planned rationing of vehicles. The planned rationing of American cars. That’s the only way this plan makes sense. The only result will be shortages of cars and a completely altered used car market. You can look to Cuba to find out what it’s like to have a raging used car market … [Read more...]
Some Like It Hot – Others Like It Cold
The drivel from air-conditioned mainstream media newsrooms has reached new levels of guffaw with the “shocking” headlines that the Fourth of July was the hottest day on Earth in “as many as 125,000 years” – breaking a record set on July 3. Hmmm. Really? Or is this just hype to avoid mentioning the shortfall of patriotic fireworks, replaced by drones across much of the Home of the Brave (not so much.) Here’s what we know IS true. In many places, including central Texas, it was … [Read more...]
Finally, the Europeans May Be Rejecting the EV Kool-Aid
You may not know it if you rely solely on American media, but there is a growing revolt across much of Europe against net-zero mandates in general and electric vehicle mandates in particular. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash It seems that led by luxury carmakers, the future may be bright for the venerable internal combustion engine if new synthetic fuel technologies can produce an affordable replacement for gasoline and diesel fuels. The revolt had been brewing since Europe got … [Read more...]
UN Secretary-General Wrong to Blame Climate Change for Somalian Suffering
The following is a guest article by Linnea Lueken. U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres recently gave a speech in Somalia in which he claimed Somalia is suffering from the impacts of climate change disproportionately, specifically concerning crop production amid an ongoing regional drought. This is false. Somalia is not suffering famine and crop failures primarily due to drought. Social and political instability is a much more likely culprit, especially since Somalia’s current drought … [Read more...]
Climate Fearmongering Reaches Stratospheric Heights
A new paper by Santer et al., provocatively entitled “Exceptional stratospheric contribution to human fingerprints on atmospheric temperature,” goes where no serious climate scientist should go: it has conflated stratospheric cooling with global warming. The paper starts out summarizing the supposed importance of their work, which is worth quoting in its entirety (bold emphasis added): “Differences between tropospheric and lower stratospheric temperature trends have long been recognized … [Read more...]
