Curry Deals Another Blow to Climate Consensus

Georgia Tech climatologist Judith Curry dealt a serious blow to the appeal to consensus on climate change in her paper “Climate Change: No Consensus on Consensus,” three years ago. She pointed out (among lots of other valuable things) that, whatever value consensus might have in science (as opposed to politics), consensus is significant only if

It’s Official: July 2015 Is, and Isn’t, the Hottest Month on Record!

NOAA breathlessly reports, “July 2015 was warmest month ever recorded for the globe.” CNN, USA Toady—oops, that’s USA Today—, BBC, and lots of other mainstream media lapdogs all obediently reported it. But laymen need to pause for a deep breath before panicking. First, “ever recorded” means back to 1880 (conveniently leaving out the Holocene Climate Optimum,

Extra! Extra! Missing AGW Intensifies California Drought!

The Old Gray Lady‘s (aka New York Times) perennial climate alarmist reporter Justin Gillis eagerly reported a new paper, “Contribution of anthropogenic warming to California drought during 2012-2014,” published in Geophysical Research Letters, claiming that anthropogenic global warming (AGW) might have intensified the current California drought by 15 to 20 percent. Alas, nasty facts get in the way,

Validation of IPCC’s Global Warming Forecasts would Require More than Tripling Warming Rate

At +0.11C per decade rate, Global Average Temperature would rise 1.1C in a century, not the ~3C generally predicted by IPCC without CO2 emission reduction. Actual increase in the 36.5 years since 1978 is 0.407C. To wind up with 3C increase in the century from 1978 through 2077, we’d need to add another 2.593C in

We Pray for the Honorable Scientists Who Are Being Attacked for Speaking Truth

Heavenly Father, Your Law clearly commands us not to bear false witness against our neighbors. Right now eight courageous people weigh heavily on my mind—eight climate scholars targeted by a politically motivated and baseless attack on their personal integrity because they are so intrepid as to stand against a powerful tide driven by enormous political
