Costs of Climate Alarmism Are Ones We Can’t Afford

As previously discussed in my March 20 column, following three decades of cooling from the mid-1940s to late ’70s that prominent scientists and media sources warned was a terrifying harbinger of the next Ice Age, a mere decade of warming temperatures later became trumpeted by some of those same experts as a reverse threat, one […]

Exposing the Media’s Climate Change Lies and Exaggerations

For 20 years or more, dire warnings about global warming and “climate change” have taken the mass media of entertainment by storm. Every few years, climate change doomsayers have claimed that the world only has 12 years to turn the tide. They said practically the same thing 12 and 15 years ago; however, that they’re

The Pop Culture Transition from Population Growth to Global Warming

For many of us Millennials, especially in densely populated developing countries like India and China, it was a no-brainer. Population growth was the world’s biggest problem. At least, so we learned in our schools. But as we grew into our 20s, the focus of the world turned more toward climate change. Was population growth really

Big Green at it Again: Deciding Scientific Outcomes Before Doing Research

As if Climategate wasn’t enough, the pseudo-scientific community has now given us BeeGate. Environmentalists blame neonicotinoid pesticides for bee colony collapse, an assumption already disproven by scientific research and field studies. This is not to say that more studies could not or should not be done, but in the case of BeeGate there is an

Three Great Legacies of Climategate

It’s been five years now since Climategate broke, and three years since Climategate II broke. The disclosures of thousands of emails, computer programs, and other documents from the Climate Research Unit of the University of East Anglia revealed scandalous scientific misconduct of monumental proportions—enough that it has crippled the credibility of an entire field of science (paleoclimatology) and seriously tarnished the

If Peer Review Were a Drug, It Wouldn’t Get on the Market

In a blog piece at MasterResource.org, meteorologist Chip Knappenberger presents and discusses the implications of communications from MIT climatologist Richard Lindzen documenting bias in and corruption of the scientific peer-review process against “climate skeptics,” focusing on the case of his recent submission to the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that was refused there

In Praise of Scientific Piranhas: the Legacies of Climategate

It’s been two months now since Climategate broke. The disclosure of thousands of emails, computer programs, and other documents from the Climatic Research Unit of the University of East Anglia in the UK revealed scandalous scientific misconduct of monumental proportions–enough that it has crippled the credibility of an entire field of science (paleoclimatology) and seriously tarnished
