Bummer: UK Met Office Admits That We Are Seeing Things That Could Have Happened Thanks To Natural Variability

“But, but, but, it could have included some components of Hotcoldwetdry too!!!! Please, believe us, we have bills to pay” (via Junk Science) (Financial Times) Cities along the US east coast face a looming “sea level rise crisis” from a growing number of disasters as severe as hurricane Sandy, according to research on links between […]

Warmists Now Want “Climate Change” Added To Civil Rights Agenda

They really can’t help themselves. Now they’re trying to link the work Martin Luther King, Jr did to hotcoldwetdry (Should climate change be added to the civil rights agenda?) This week, tens of thousands of people from across America streamed into the nation’s capital to observe the 50th anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington […]

Warmists Now Claim “Climate Change” Will Steer Big Hurricanes Away From East Coast

In terms of landfalling hurricanes, this seems to be what’s happening. It’s been over 7 years and 10 months since a major hurricane (category 3+) hit the United States. There has only been one barely a hurricane strike since 2008. Superstorm Sandy was not a hurricane at time of landfall. Hurricanes and tropical systems seem […]

The “97% Consensus” Breaks Down

I’ve already, like many others, beaten up on the recent paper claiming there is a 97% consensus of Hotcoldwetdry doom. Here’s Lord Christopher Monckton on the further destruction of the meme, doing a guest post at William W. Briggs (via Tom Nelson) A major peer-reviewed paper by four senior researchers has exposed grave errors in […]

Will AR5 Disappear The 15+ Year Warming Hiatus?

Let’s be clear: some data shows zero warming since 1998. Some shows a decreasing global temperature. Most shows what is considered to be “statistically insignificant”, hence the reason I tend to use the Met Office data which shows a miniscule 0.14F increase since 1998 and minor 0.28F since 1990. But, the UN IPCC is extremely […]

Bummer: Humanity Getting Closer To Extinction From A Slight Increase In CO2 Or Something

Some are Warmists, some are Alarmists. Either way, most of them are bat-shit crazy (KCET) In the last few days an alarming (ie, batshit crazy) article making the rounds on social media has revived the idea that our species might be doing itself in by changing the global climate. The article, by vice.com’s Nathan Curry, […]

Mind-Blowing Paper Links Current Warming Pause To Cool Pacific Waters

In Warmist World, the cooling Pacific is surely caused by too much heat (Judith Curry) My mind has been blown by a new paper just published in Nature. Just when I least expected it, after a busy day when I took a few minutes to respond to a query from a journalist about a new […]

Cass Sunstein Wonders Why People Don’t Fear “Climate Change” Enough

I’d hazard a guess that it’s because people, like Sunstein’s former boss, The Man With The Largest Carbon Footprint In The World (41,000 metric tons), refuse to practice what they preach. (Bloomberg) With respect to the science of climate change, many experts regard the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as the world’s authoritative institution. A […]

Everyone Should Be Taking Fossil Fueled Climate Change Tourism Trips

This caught my interest from Tom Nelson’s site because it mentioned my home state Fear and Loathing of Climate Change Now that summer has come to a close and everyone is returning to their homes with tales of downing oyster shots and hiking the continental divide, I think it’s appropriate for me to share how […]

Farmers’ Almanac: Get Your Heavy Duty Long Johns Ready For Winter

They’re predicting a really cold winter, and, let’s face it, their predictions tend to be quite a bit better than the computer models of Warmists. They also put themselves out there by predicting what’s coming shortly, versus the Warmists that predict 50, 100, 1000 years out (BTW, how’s that “ice free Arctic in 2013” working […]
