Harvard Professor Naomi Oreskes dubbed ‘The Queen of Climate Crackpottery’

The Queen of Climate Crackpottery By Tony Thomas Trigger warning: if your household companions include a cat, dog, canary, goldfish or turtle, this article is not a safe space. I’m writing about Harvard’s distinguished agnatologist Professor Naomi Oreskes (above) and her 2014 warning that global warming would kill your pets in 2023. The warning is in […]

International panel of geologists rejects notion of significant ‘climate change’ – ‘Stunning rebuke’ of ‘proposed geologic time division reflecting human influence’

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/05/climate/anthropocene-epoch-vote-rejected.html?searchResultPosition=4 Science Mag: ‘Panel rejects a proposed geologic time division reflecting human influence’ – The vote, first reported by The New York Times, is a stunning—though not unexpected—rebuke for the proposal, which has been working its way through a formal approval process for more than a decade. https://science.slashdot.org/story/24/03/10/1849256/are-we-in-the-anthropocene-the-human-age-scientists-say-nope Excerpts: Science magazine “has confirmed that a panel of two dozen geologists […]

The award for one of the most vacuous phrases in climate goes to — ‘To avoid the worst impacts of climate change, scientists say…’

By Climate Scientist Dr. Patrick T. Brown: This framing misleads for at least three reasons.

The first is that the phrase “scientists say” implies that there is a scientific consensus on the need to limit global warming to some particular level and therefore a scientific consensus on the size of our supposed carbon budget. That is not the case.

The second reason is that tying the phrase “in order to avoid the worst impacts of climate change” to the particular 1.5°C level of warming implies that there is something special about that threshold. But that’s not the case either.

Finally, focusing only on “scientists” and “the worst impacts of climate change” takes an issue that should be looked at through a society-wide cost-benefit lens and puts the focus exclusively on the benefits of avoided warming—ignoring the costs involved in avoiding that warming.

Climate scientist whistleblower Patrick Brown reveals how the media’s obsession with global warming manipulates the truth about wildfires – 80% are ignited by humans

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12482921/climate-scientist-patrick-brown-wildfires-started-people.html By LEWIS PENNOCK FOR DAILYMAIL.COM Patrick T. Brown, a lecturer at Johns Hopkins University, claimed the world’s leading academic journals reject papers which don’t ‘support certain narratives’ He also took aim at the media for focusing ‘intently on climate change as the root cause’ of wildfires, including the recent devastating fires in Hawaii The approach ‘distorts a […]

Climate Scientist Reveals how ‘The Science’ is created! ‘I Left Out the Full Truth to Get My Climate Change Paper Published’ in journal Nature

Climate Scientist Patrick T Brown – September 5, 2023 – I am a climate scientist. And while climate change is an important factor affecting wildfires over many parts of the world, it isn’t close to the only factor that deserves our sole focus. So why does the press focus so intently on climate change as the root cause? Perhaps for the same reasons I just did in an academic paper about wildfires in Nature, one of the world’s most prestigious journals: it fits a simple storyline that rewards the person telling it. 

The paper I just published—“Climate warming increases extreme daily wildfire growth risk in California”—focuses exclusively on how climate change has affected extreme wildfire behavior. I knew not to try to quantify key aspects other than climate change in my research because it would dilute the story that prestigious journals like Nature and its rival, Science, want to tell. …

To put it bluntly, climate science has become less about understanding the complexities of the world and more about serving as a kind of Cassandra, urgently warning the public about the dangers of climate change. However understandable this instinct may be, it distorts a great deal of climate science research, misinforms the public, and most importantly, makes practical solutions more difficult to achieve. 

Scientist admits the ‘overwhelming consensus’ on the climate change crisis is ‘manufactured’

The UN created the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. “The IPCC wasn’t supposed to focus on any benefits of warming. The IPCC’s mandate was to look for dangerous human-caused climate change,”climatologist Dr. Judith Curry said. “Then the national funding agencies directed all the funding . . . assuming there are dangerous impacts. The researchers quickly figured out that the way to get funded was to make alarmist claims about ‚”man-made climate change” This is how “manufactured consensus” happens.
