You Can’t Trust ‘Climate Economics’
Governments, banks and other institutions have based policies on models unconnected to reality.

The Paper That Breaks Climate Economics
Curtin-Burgess ask a straightforward question: Can we actually measure how climate affects the economy from the historical record? Their answer is no.

Revenge of the Climate Realists
For years, those who questioned the calamity of climate change were treated like pariahs. Now, their day of vindication has come.

Hauptkritikpunkte an Ferenc Miskolczis Theorie
Die Theorie von Ferenc Miskolczi stellt eine radikale Alternative zum konventionellen Verständnis des Treibhauseffekts der Erde dar. Sie postuliert einen selbstregulierenden atmosphärischen Mechanismus, der eine Erwärmung durch Treibhausgase wie CO2 begrenzt.

Surprise! Ice is rebounding at BOTH poles — climate is more complex than we know
Two new studies show that the Earth’s climate is far more complex than often acknowledged, reminding us of the importance of pragmatic energy and climate policies.

Forscher erklären 100'000-Jahre-Zyklus der Eiszeiten
Warum es alle hunderttausend Jahre zu einer Eiszeit kommt, konnte bisher nicht komplett erklärt werden. Nun hat ein internationales Forscherteam mit Schweizer Beteiligung die Faktoren identifiziert: Neben der Sonne spielt die Wechselwirkung von Klima und Gletschern eine Rolle.

The Underappreciated Importance of Climate Variability
One of the most pervasive misunderstandings of climate is the belief that any long-term trend in a measured climate variable indicates a change in climate, as defined by the IPCC. In practice, “long-term” is often defined to be only a few decades worth of observations.

Oceans Giving Back a Little C02
Carbon dioxide is indeed the ‘stuff of life’, underpinning photosynthesis, boosting plant growth, enhancing agricultural yields, and enabling practical applications in industry.

Some History, Including About Cyclones
When it comes to extreme weather, cyclones are top of my list. The most extreme cyclone to hit Queensland, Tropical Cyclone Mahina, was arguably the world’s most intense with a central pressure recorded at 880 hectopascals, a 12-metre storm surge, and 300 kilometre per hour winds.

Climate Misinformation from the United Nations
Lapses of scientific integrity in climate science have become normalized. I no longer expect the community to care about obvious and egregious problems in climate science, even when documented in the peer reviewed literature.
