Stop Promoting Attribution Studies, Associated Press, Europe’s Wildfires Aren’t Worsening

Stop Promoting Attribution Studies, Associated Press, Europe’s Wildfires Aren’t Worsening By Linnea Lueken The Associated Press (AP), via ABC News, claims that climate change is responsible for the intensity of European wildfires in a story titled “Climate change made deadly wildfires in Turkey, Greece and Cyprus more fierce, study finds.” This is false. Data show […]

Pielke Jr.: ‘Science is Not Team Sport’ – ‘The blue team response to DOE (climate report) shows that climate assessment is broken’

Dr. Roger Pielke Jr.: I took a look at the DK25 (Trump Admin’s DOE dissenting climate) report in my areas of expertise, as I did with the DOE CWG (85 scientists pushing back on DOE report), and I found numerous statements that were simply false — among them that World Weather Attribution was not created with litigation in mind, that NOAA”s “billion dollar disasters” (RIP) tabulation was scientifically valid, that SRES had 6 not 40 scenarios, and that RCP8.5 has not been the most commonly used scenario in research and assessment. DK25 ignored all of our research that was accurately cited by DOE CWG.

DK25 also includes a bizarre claim regarding the detection of changes in extreme weather events:2

“the absence of statistically significant trends in the historical records does not mean that changes are not occurring”3

Actually, that is exactly what the absence of detection means — don’t take it from me, take it from the IPCC, which defines a change in climate as follows:

A change in the state of the climate that can be identified (e.g., by using statistical tests) by changes in the mean and/or the variability of its properties and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer.

The assumption here is that if you find some degree of merit in the DOE CWG then climate policy is doomed and if you instead side with DK25, then carbon dioxide regulation is on its way. Viewed from this perspective, scientific assessments are ”tactics” to be mobilized to support political action or delay.

Such a perspective turns scientific assessment into partisan politics. Scientific integrity inevitably suffers.

Big Tech is overloading the grid. Nuclear, natural gas, & coal can save it

Big Tech is overloading the grid. Nuclear, natural gas, and coal can save it By James Taylor America’s electric grid is in grave danger. After decades of relatively flat national electricity demand, a surge of tech data centers, artificial intelligence, and other Big Tech electricity demand is threatening to overwhelm and crash America’s electric grid.

Bjorn Lomborg on climate hypocrisy: ‘Many Europeans disapprove of keeping cool with air conditioning…but most have no problem using 100x more energy on heating to keep warm’

It’s not ‘green tech’ — it’s ‘red’: ‘Red Tech’ enviro-extremism is being ‘underwritten by the Chinese Communist Party’s plan to insert kill switches in & electric grids’

"Red Tech" Insanity Driving Radical Environmentalism Enviro-extremism is being underwritten by the Chinese Communist Party's plan to insert kill switches in and electric grids. It's not "green tech," it's red. And it's suicidal to let the enemy control the power. pic.twitter.com/WIyynBFnsp — Michael Lucci (@Michael7ucci) September 3, 2025

Dr. Roger Pielke Jr. mocks ‘Weather Attribution Alchemy’ – Ponders ‘Extreme Non-Event Attribution’ or ‘How climate change just saved us from a trillion-dollar disaster!’ – Asks about ‘the-extreme-event-that-didn’t-just-happen’

https://rogerpielkejr.substack.com/p/extreme-non-event-attribution By ROGER PIELKE JR. Hurricane Erin was a massive Category 5 storm that shot the gap between the U.S. east coast and Bermuda before heading out to sea. Imagine an alternative universe, where Erin’s track was just a bit further west — tracking over Miami, along the U.S. east coast, and then making a […]
