Nuclear Engineer Reveals “Climate Consensus” as Anti-Scientific

By /

Over at the American Nuclear Society’s ANS Cafe blog, ANS Fellow and Adjunct Professor of Nuclear Engineering Dr. Ruth Weiner exposes the anti-scientific character of appealing to consensus to push climate alarmism: Scientific thought progresses as a result of skepticism about a consensus rather than by invocation of that consensus. The fallacy of the 97 […]

Global Average Temperature Plummets! Tropical Temperature Fall Third-Biggest on Record!

By /

Forgive the headline. We’re mimicking the behavior of global warming alarmists. If we used their tactics, we’d proclaim this a major victory for climate realists. In reality, both a one-month drop of 0.15 deg. C in global temperature and a one-month drop of 0.38 deg. C in tropical temperature are stastically insignificant to long-term global

Why Is 2017’s “Third Warmest on Record” a Yawner?

By /

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) press release headline January 18 was blunt: “NOAA: 2017 was 3rd warmest year on record for the globe.” The tagline that followed made the inference obligatory for all climate alarmists: “NOAA, NASA scientists confirm Earth’s long-term warming trend continues” (emphasis added). The New York Times trumpeted, “2017 Was

Can You Really Have Fun Debating Climate Change?

By /

“Unsafe Space,” dedicated to discussing serious issues in comedic fashion, did everyone a real service on January 22. It posted a panel discussion on climate change featuring scientists Jon Christensen (defending the alarmist view) and Willie Soon (defending the skeptics’ view). It’s a good discussion with plenty of give-and-take and at least a modicum of

Larry Bell takes NY Times reporter to the woodshed for taking President Trump to the woodshed

By /

Kendra Pierre-Louis will rue the day when she took it on herself to teach President Donald Trump the difference between climate and weather. So will the New York Times, the newspaper in which she did it. Why? Because she was right. And that meant she and the Times were wrong. Larry Bell took her to the woodshed

Blessing or Curse? The Curious Case of Carbon Dioxide

By /

In recent decades, select groups of scientists and politicians have blamed carbon dioxide (CO2) — a greenhouse gas — for increasing global temperatures to dangerous levels. Is CO2 really destroying our planet? CO2 is an odorless, invisible, trace gas in the atmosphere that acts as an important source of life for everything that lives on

Answering Objections about Genetically Modified Organisms

By /

Opponents of genetically modified (GM) crops raise a number of questions and objections to growing them and including them in the food supply. Although they cite scientific research to support their claims, a careful review of the literature suggests there is very little evidence to support any of the claims about harmful health effects of
