The media buzz about climate doomsday can be quite overwhelming to any ordinary person who is not into sciences or academia. In recent decades, more and more people have been persuaded to believe that an imminent climate collapse is at hand. But do we know enough about climate change to justify such claims? How much sense can we make from what we do know? I’ve grappled with these questions for over a decade, starting with my graduate studies in climate science at the University of East … [Read more...]
Anti-Science Attitude and Media Lies: Your Blinded Climate Friend
Climate change is divisive. While most conservatives tend to be skeptical of the dangers of climate change, most liberals tend to exaggerate them. Within the scientific community too, a plethora of scientists believe the current change in climate is not unprecedented. Their opinion stands in stark contrast to opinions held by scientists who head the climate policy making bodies at the United Nations. Friends are no exception. Recently, a friend told me that climate change's impact is very … [Read more...]
Are Record Temperatures Evidence of Manmade Global Warming?
It is a slam-dunk certainty that American mainstream media will seize upon a recent story in the Los Angeles Times, “Southern California sets all-time heat records amid broiling conditions,” as justification for its continuing support of the contested theory of man-caused global warming. It has already happened with a Yahoo News story claiming that the new temperature records world-wide prove man causes climate change. But there are problems in pursuing that path. First, days that reach … [Read more...]
Why Climate Doomsday Won’t Happen This Summer
As we head into another summer, the clarion call for climate action from environmentalists is expected to grow louder. But are we really at the tipping point of a global climate catastrophe? Not all environmentalists are worried about the climate doomsday. In fact, even amongst the climate scientists, there is no clear consensus regarding the possibility of a climate state that would cause global catastrophe. Nevertheless, the mainstream media have been pushing the climate agenda on full … [Read more...]
Endless Winter in the Era of Climate Crusade: A Wakeup Call
On every Earth Day coming, attention around the world turns to environmental issues. None is more famous — or infamous — than climate change. The winter of 2017–2018 has stirred debate about global warming. Some say the long, cold winter should quell climate alarmism. Others use it as evidence for extreme manmade warming. Who’s right? An Inconvenient Winter Temperatures plummeted way below normal across the Northern Hemisphere this winter. Many cities in Canada, America, England, and Europe … [Read more...]
What Does A Weatherman Know About Settled Climate Science?
What does a weatherman know about the climate? This question is posed all the time as an argument by leftist climate activists against any meteorologist who would dare to oppose the “consensus” narrative that humans are causing long-term, disastrous global climate change. But the argument demonstrates the lack of understanding many have with respect to the discipline of atmospheric science. Those trained in the math- and physics- based atmospheric sciences (this frequently excludes broadcast … [Read more...]
Maybe ‘exceptional’ weather is just weather
Perhaps the best challenge to the hysterical claims that humans are causing unusual climate change is the demonstration that "exceptional" weather events can be predicted in advance based on their natural occurrence in history. One person who has admirably met this challenge with consistent, convincing demonstrations is meteorologist and forecaster extraordinaire Joe Bastardi. Bastardi – formerly of AccuWeather, now with WeatherBELL Analytics – is the best weather forecaster I have ever … [Read more...]
FINALLY! Climate Propaganda May Be Reaching A Tipping Point
Has the climate propaganda reached a point where radical climatism is leading us into dangerous negligence? The severe winter in the northern hemisphere has been widely recorded. However, key climate information providers have altered data. The result — intended or not — has been to make the recent record lows of the winter appear normal. November 2017 marked the onset of a very cold winter across the Northern Hemisphere. Many parts of North America and Eurasia registered record lows, … [Read more...]
In Climate Science We Trust
Many religious people want to be at the forefront of the fight against climate change. They believe it is their spiritual duty. Acting on climate forecasts and analysis, they are inspired to save people and the planet from the evils of fossil fuels. They are convinced that if God was on the planet in person, he would certainly trust the prognostic ability of climate scientists to discern the Earth’s climate decades into the future. And, with the scientists’ sacrosanct ability to confidently … [Read more...]
The Great Winter of 2017-2018 and the Hypocrisy of Climate Alarmists
As record lows gripped many parts of the U.S. and Canada, the global warming elitists scrambled to announce to the world that climate change was the driving force behind the freezing weather. Inevitably, their claims have exposed the hypocrisy of the global warming cult that has instilled fear among the public. Temperatures in many parts of the Atlantic U.S. went down drastically last week. Canada was not an exception, with record lows registered in many provinces since November last … [Read more...]
