  • The Great Hurricane Of 1896

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    Hardly scientific! The analysis by Partagas, which is referred to and which the latest analysis is based on can be read here, and is no better, mainly referring to newspaper reports. Nowhere in any of their or the HRD analysis is there any mention of actual recordings of wind speed or central pressure. Hardly surprising, given that all happened in 1896. Yet we are expected believe that Helene, with considerably less damage, both in Florida and inland, was a much stronger storm.

  • State Courts Should Not Be Writing US Climate Laws

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    Judges shouldn’t write laws that anti-fossil fuel factions can’t get Congress and People to enact

  • Renewables Subsidies Hit New August Record

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    The addition of the newer, cheaper offshore wind farms has not had a significant impact on the subsidy per MWh. The reduction in average strike price has been overwhelmed by a combination of the indexation upwards in April and cheaper gas prices since last year. Even if gas prices stay at the current elevated levels, we are unlikely to see a significant reduction in the subsidy per MWh because increased generation from renewables pushes down the IMRP, thus increasing subsidies. For the generators it is heads they win, tails the consumer loses. We can expect more record subsidies between now and February 2025 as the seasonal load factors creep back up and Drax is kept running to replace our last remaining coal plant, which shuts shortly.

  • Gergis Accuses Aussie Government of Emissions “Trickery”

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    Joëlle Gergis, who had an erroneous hockey stick climate paper spectacularly withdrawn in 2012, has accused Aussie politicians of using "trickery" to conceal climate policy failures.

  • ‘You Flew Here’: Dem AG Suing Exxon Struggles To Defend His Own Lawsuit On Live TV

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    If Bonta flew roundtrip from Sacramento to New York City to appear at Climate Week, he would have flown approximately 5,000 miles and emitted about 2.26 metric tons of carbon dioxide, according to calculations done on Sustainable Travel.

  • Wrong, Associated Press, New Short Corn Variety Is a Marketing Ploy, Not a Response to Climate Change

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    Even if, contrary to the AP’s suggestion, corn production is not being harmed by worsening climate conditions, Bayer’s short corn variety may prove beneficial for farmers. It seems that, per the AP, “[t]he smaller plants also let farmers plant at greater density, so they can grow more corn on the same amount of land, increasing their profits.” The shorter corn may also use less water. Both conditions should, in theory, make corn production more profitable, regardless of climate change, so there is a bit of good news in the AP’s otherwise unjustifiably foreboding climate change tale.

  • Texas AG Sues Biden Admin for Listing Dunes Sagebrush Lizard as Endangered

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    “The Wildlife Service failed to rely on the best scientific and commercial data available when making its designation as required by law and therefore made inaccurate and arbitrary assumptions about the current and future status of the species.”

  • Heat-Pump Sales Plummet by Almost 50% Across Europe

  • Fracking and the Election: It’s Not About Pennsylvania

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    Low natural gas prices are essential to lowering inflation and retaining an American manufacturing edge. Natural gas prices feed into the costs of almost all products, since natural gas is the major source of electricity in the U.S. A rise in power cost, translates to a rise in the costs of manufactured goods. In addition, natural gas is the feedstock of fertilizer, thus price rises in natural gas, translate to higher food costs.

  • CNN hypes climate activists declaring WE TOLD YOU SO after Hurricane Helene hits Florida – Meteorologist Bastardi rips as ‘total crap. Storms are smaller. Not larger’

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    CNN blames "fossil fuel pollution" for Hurricane Helene's intensity, as it would not have been as severe or rapidly intensified as much without the supercharging from global warming. Climate experts are giddy today to tell the public "told you so" after Helene's devastation.

  • O C Register Publishes a Climate Alarmist “The Heat Rises” Weather Impact Chart Which Should instead be Called “The Hype, Distortion & Deception Rises”

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    It is extremely unfortunate that the U.S. media is so incapable and incompetent at addressing the huge climate science shortcomings underlying climate alarmist propaganda as illustrated in this Register and SCNG chart.  

  • Not that ET!  The Terrestrial ET: EvapoTranspiration, the Unexplored Source of Climate Change

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    Evapotranspiration, ET, is defined as the total amount water flux evaporated into the atmosphere from surface and plant (dew) Evaporation and plant Transpiration.  ET is a term used in agriculture water management to aid in crop growth and is usually measured by monitoring soil moisture change over time and plant types. 

  • Mass Extinction Fail: Messenian Salinity Crisis Version

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    While the Messinian Salinity Crisis and subsequent Zanclean Megaflood comprise one of the most incredible episodes in geologic history... So incredible that the uppermost stage of the Miocene epoch is named the Messinian and the lowermost stage of the Pliocene epoch is named the Zanclean... There was no MASS extinction associated with it.

  • Live at 1 pm Eastern: It’s Climate Week in NYC – The Climate Realism Show #128

    Updated: 2024-09-30 16:37:33
    It’s climate week in New York City, yet another expensive and carbon-intensive gathering of global chicken littles clucking about the end of the world. More than 6,000 attendees from more than 100 countries converged on the Big Apple to coincide with the United Nations General Assembly Meeting, all the better to coordinate efforts to stop climate change by taking your freedom and money. But is Climate Week losing its cache and are there cracks in support for achieving goals like Net Zero?
