Recently I had a conversation about scientific claims in a field I haven’t mastered. We all find ourselves there once in a while.

Because I don’t have much training in said disciplines, I haven’t thoroughly investigated the […]

Exaggeration of weather events to sell climate crisis is not something new. In the case of a Sky News’ account of flooding in one Indian city, my own observations — backed up by independent data — are contrary to the report. Chennai — my home state’s capital, formerly known as Madras — is prone to floods, whose severity I’ve personally witnessed. In fact, the last time Chennai flooded,

As world leaders meet this week at Glasgow for COP26, real-life data such as cold weather and increasing sea ice hints at the falseness of their faux climate crises. Residents of Delhi, for instance, are bracing for another cold winter after the country’s meteorological department forecasted below-normal temperatures for November. In fact, a string of
