Turning ‘What If’ into ‘How Many’: The Rhetorical Alchemy of Climate Modeling
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2026/02/04/turning-what-if-into-how-many-the-rhetorical-alchemy-of-climate-modeling/ By Charles Rotter A recent Nature paper, “Projected impacts of climate change on malaria in Africa,” provides a textbook example of how layered model uncertainty can be transformed—through careful framing—into quantified predictions that appear far more authoritative than the underlying evidence warrants. The headline figures are stark: 123 million additional malaria cases and more than 500,000 additional deaths […]
WashPost Cries Climate Change Making ‘Winter Olympics Harder to Host’ – Based on ‘projected warming,’ the Post claims few locations will ‘remain climate-reliable by the 2050s’
https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/business/joseph-vazquez/2026/02/04/olympiad-level-dumb-washpost-cries-climate-change-making By Joseph Vazquez Is it possible just to enjoy a long-cherished international sports tradition without injecting climate scareporn into the mix? Apparently not so for the Gaia-worshipping sub-optimal intellects at The Washington Post. Post reporters Janice Kai Chen, Nick Kirkpatrick and Júlia Ledur apparently forgot it was winter when they collectively blurted out the following headline February 2, “Climate […]
The Climate-Disaster Scores That Could Make or Break Your Home Sale: Millions of home sellers & buyers are caught in the battle over how to rate a home’s exposure to natural disasters

Then the listing went live in August: “It was like a bolt of lightning hit me in the head.” The three-bedroom townhouse in Lincoln, N.H., was labeled on the home-listing site […]
Canada now the poster child for politically driven climate data corruption
https://www.americaoutloud.news/is-canada-now-the-poster-child-for-politically-driven-climate-data-corruption/ By Tom Harris According to scientists at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), and regularly repeated by politicians and media across the board, “Canada is warming at roughly double the global average rate.” But a new report demonstrates that the data ECCC has been relying on may be hopelessly corrupted by fundamental mistakes that are responsible […]
Analysis: Climate alarmism’s credibility sinks under weight of ecological evidence – ‘The house of cards built on computer models & manipulated emotions is collapsing’
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2026/01/10/climate-alarmisms-credibility-sinks-under-weight-of-ecological-evidence-1615188/ By Vijay Jayaraj The house of cards built on computer models and manipulated emotions is collapsing under the weight of a stubborn, inconvenient reality. The “climate emergency” exists only in the frantic press releases of a movement that knows its time is up. For decades, activists have anchored their case in dramatic warnings about […]
New Study: ‘Minimal Arctic Sea Ice Loss in the Last 20 Years’ – ‘Arctic sea ice loss has slowed considerably, with no statistically significant decline in September sea ice area since 2005’ – No decline found ‘across all months of the year’

‘Quieter than normal’: Atlantic Hurricane Season 2025 – ‘No Atlantic hurricanes at all have hit the US’ – ‘No long-term trends, either in the frequency of hurricanes or their intensity’
Atlantic Hurricane Season 2025 By Paul Homewood The Atlantic hurricane season, which officially ended on 30th November, was quieter than normal, with five hurricanes, compared to a long-term average of 7.2. By far the most complete and robust data we have for hurricanes is for those which have hit the US coast. The US Hurricane Research […]
Modeling Error In Estimating How Clouds Affect Climate Is 8700% Larger Than Alleged CO2 Forcing – ‘CO2’s role in climate change is too small to detect’
Modeling Error In Estimating How Clouds Affect Climate Is 8700% Larger Than Alleged CO2 Forcing By Kenneth Richard on 7. January 2026 CO2’s role in climate change is too small to detect in error-ridden attribution measurements. Downward longwave radiation (DWLWR) at the ocean surface “is among the most important components of the heat flux across the ocean-atmosphere interface, […]
Watch: New Yorker’s Elizabeth Kolbert makes climate prediction on Jon Stewart show: Warns of ’20 feet of sea level rising. So Manhattan will not be here’
The New Yorker's Elizabeth Kolbert tells Jon Stewart that "But we have gone—chosen to go in the opposite direction [on climate]. With all the evidence mounting, mounting evidence of the risks that that entails, and once again, that is a fascinating thing to do but not exactly… pic.twitter.com/5HMIb3ez5G — Alex Christy (@alexchristy17) December 2, 2025
New Study: Human CO2 Emissions Responsible For 1.57% Of Global Temperature Change Since 1750
New Study: Human CO2 Emissions Responsible For 1.57% Of Global Temperature Change Since 1750 By Kenneth Richard on 2. January 2026 “The remaining 98.43% of climate forcing arises from sources other than anthropogenic CO2.” – Davis, 2025 When it comes to climate forcing, “atmospheric CO2 plays a minor and diminishing role in forcing contemporary global warming.” Key quotes […]
