“Climate Change”: A Leap of Faith?

Tonight at Duke University there will be a panel discussion titled “Climate Change Not a Leap of Faith.” Among the event hosts is the group Young Evangelicals for Climate Action, an offshoot of the Evangelical Environmental Network. They and the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions, the Nicholas School of the Environment, and the Kenan […]

Why Was March 2016 the Warmest March in the Satellite Record?

UAH Principal Research Scientist and Cornwall Alliance Senior Fellow Dr. Roy W. Spencer just posted the monthly UAH satellite temperature update on his blog, and on global average, last month was the warmest March since satellite monitoring began in 1979. Predictably, climate scaremongers are hailing this as proof positive that our evil emissions of evil

97% Consensus of Unqualified Scientists Isn’t Worth Much

Roy Spencer just published an excellent article bursting the “97% consensus” balloon. Here’s an excerpt: The 97 percent number comes from a 2013 paper that was published by John Cook in Environmental Research Letters and that claimed to review about 12,000 published scientific papers on global warming and climate change. Now, for those of us

Is Sea Level Rise Accelerating? A Look at the Evidence

The latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment report claims that the rate of sea level rise from 1993 to 2010 was roughly twice that from 1901 to 2010, offering one of the strongest reasons for alarm about anthropogenic global warming. But a major review by Kenneth Richard of recent journal publications on the subject

A Month or Two Does Not a Long-term Trend Make

It was inevitable that when the current extra-strong El Nino resulted in some anomalously hot months the climate alarmists would declare victory, and, sure enough, when Drs. John Christy and Roy Spencer of University of Alabama Huntsville announced that the satellite global temperature data showed February the hottest month in the satellite record (which goes

Forget the Almost-19-Year Global Warming “Pause”? How about 58 Years?

That’s the implication of new analysis of NOAA radiosonde (weather balloon) data by Tony Heller at RealClimateScience.com. Heller begins: In their “hottest year ever” press briefing, NOAA included this graph, which stated that they have a 58 year long radiosonde temperature record. But they only showed the last 37 years in the graph. NESDIS Strategic

Using GPS Satellites to Measure Global Temperature

Interesting new research indicates that … global temperature over the lower atmosphere — using the series of GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites — can be obtained by accurately by measuring the propagation of radio waves through the atmosphere. The importance of this new method is that a near-complete coverage of the Earth is afforded and that
