This morning a friend in Georgia mentioned that the common consensus among his friends there is that recent summers have been much hotter than in the past, and for that reason they’re inclined to believe claims of rapid human-induced global warming. Aside from the facts that what’s happening in one tiny part of the globe […]

Joshua Emerson Smith, a reporter for the San Diego Union-Tribune, has picked it up, and the U-T gave his story prominent placement: “Climate contrarian uncovers scientific error, upends major ocean warming study.” “It” was the revelation, by mathematician Nicolas Lewis, who specializes in statistical analysis related to climate change, that a major paper in Nature, widely considered the

Ten. Always ten. Well, almost always ten. Tony Heller recites some of the history of apocalyptic predictions from climate alarmists in this clear, simple video: Remember that every time you hear new warnings of how little time we have left to stop global warming (or global cooling) lest the planet die. P.S. If you liked this

Those who back the notion of man-made catastrophic warming don’t just support it as one would other technical or scientific ideas. Instead, they embrace the idea with the fervency of a religious zealot and brook no thought, science, or fact that may in any way call into question the premise of a planet spiraling into

We should all be praying for those in the path of Hurricane Florence, regardless whether she turns out catastrophic or only (as hurricanes go) a relatively minor problem, and those in her path should be taking all sensible steps to shield themselves from harm, while others prepare to help quickly in the aftermath.

In 1988, James Hansen confidently predicted that the world would be about 1 degree Celsius warmer today than it was then. Actually, he offered three scenarios: A, “business as usual,” with rapidly rising carbon dioxide emissions, which would bring that 1 degree; B, “most plausible,” with emissions remaining constant at 1988 levels, which would make
