Chris Morrison from the DAILY SCEPTIC wrote: The discovery of a hole in the ozone layer high above Antarctica in the 1980s turned into one of the first great climate and environmental scares. Blame was placed on the effect of chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) which were used extensively at the time in refrigerators and aerosols, and their […]
EARTH TEMP NOT TO EXCEED 15.23C
We are continually warned that the earth temperature is on the brink of exceeding the dreaded 1.50 C above the pre-industrial temperature of 13.73 C. However, NASA had recently published data showing all the planets of our Solar System in comprehensive detail including the earth with a mean temperature of 15 C (59 F). Planet […]
WORLD COOLER SO WHY NET ZERO?
According to the World Meteorology Organisation (WMO) 2023 temperature data there has been no significant change in the rate of warming since the first publication of global temperatures in the 1980’s when NASA’s J. Hansen (below) testified before the US Congress. In fact records show that the earth has cooled slightly since NASA had published […]
EARTH WAS WARMER IN 80’s & 90’s
NASA published data confirms 1990, at 59.81 F (15.45 C), as the warmest year on record slightly warmer than the 59.16 F (15.09 C) recorded by both NASA and NOAA in 2023. The World Meteorology Organisation (WMO) and British Met Office had posted the same temperatures for 2023 at 15.18 C (59.32 F). The WMO […]
CHINA BURNING AUSTRALIAN COAL
Net Zero will not be possible if we adhere to the Rio Declaration and take responsibility for the embodied carbon in the manufactured goods we import. Principle 2 of the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development. The global agreement to which Australia is a signatory: “States have, in accordance with the Charter of the United […]
LITHIUM WAREHOUSE CATCHES FIRE
The town of Viviez in Aveyron in France has just seen a lithium battery storage and recycling installation erupt in flames, igniting more fears about the dangers of these batteries. Lithium batteries are of course fundamental to plans to decarbonise the economy. The Mail has the story: A warehouse storing 900 tons of lithium batteries […]
CARBON SINK & CARBON SOURCES
New research, published in Nature Climate Change and available on Global Forest Watch, found that the world’s forests sequestered about twice as much carbon dioxide as they emitted between 2001 and 2019. In other words, forests provide a “carbon sink” that absorbs a net 7.9 billion metric tonnes of CO2 per year, 1.5 times more carbon than the […]
NASA ALTERED IT’S BASELINE TEMPS
NASA dropped its average global temperature for the 1951-1980 baseline period by one degree Celsius, from 15 down to 14 degrees Celsius, but have retained the same anomalies in both graphs below with the 2022 average temperature now being shown at 14.89 C (58.80 F) in instead of 15.89 C (60.60 F). They were forced […]
HOCKEY STICKS NOT GOOD SCIENCE
Professor Tim Ball, who was sued by Michael Mann for defamation regarding comments he made about the integrity of the Hockey Stick Graph, had succeeded in having the case thrown out and Mann ordered to pay costs. Mann had failed to comply with a court order that he produce his Hockey Stick Data! His current […]
THE HOCKEY STICK IN COURT AGAIN
Michael Mann is suing Mark Steyn, claiming damages. This comes after a previous failed action against Canadian professor Tim Ball for defamation. The general opinion of experts following the Steyn trial is that it could be over before the defendants even present a witness? It was a drama-filled day in court as Mark Steyn and […]
