- In most of a quote-rich new interview, occasional warmist darling Richard Muller once again channels Marc Morano — Muller to skeptics: ‘Most of your skepticism is still valid’
Muller: 'Hurricanes are not increasing due to human causes (actually, they have been decreasing over past 250 years). Tornadoes are not increasing due to human causes...I see no tipping points that are scientifically valid...Sandy cannot be attributed to global warming...It is not science to list bad things that have happened lately & claim that they 'may be linked' to climate change...[AGW] is not strong enough (0.6 C in last 50 years) to be noticeable by individuals'
- Prof. Richard Muller on whether ‘the Arctic melting due to global warming?’ — ‘The evidence for that is very, very flimsy. I’m not even sure it’s true’
- Video/Transcript: Anthony Watts on PBS — Climate Change Skeptic Says Global Warming Crowd Oversells Its Message
- ‘Sunspots do impact climate’: Peer-reviewed results, appearing in several journals, make it difficult to maintain that changes in solar activity play no or an insignificant role in climate change’
Astrophysicist Dr. Willie Soon and Dr. William M. Briggs: 'Even small changes in solar radiation may have a strong effect on Earth's temperature and climate' -- 'Given the wide, and perhaps at times excessive, interest in tying carbon dioxide to climate, there has been relatively little work investigating the solar-climate connection'
- Warmist believes skeptics out of scientists since Muller announced his ‘total turnaround’
'All of a sudden, the merchants of denial, led by Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and scientists in the pay of energy companies, had no credible expert witnesses for their side'
- ABC Environment on Muller: This article…encapsulates all that is wrong with the national broadcaster’s treatment of climate debate’
'Muller was never a sceptic...She then attempts to frame Bjorn Lomborg as a convert from scepticism...However, Lomborg directly addressed his alleged switch in a Guardian article cited indirectly: He reiterates that he has never denied anthropogenic global warming'
- Richard Muller’s ‘Alleged’ Big-Time Conversion: Was It News or Just Slick P.R.? Media ‘wasted precious time and energy on something that wasn’t news in the first place’
The Yale Forum on Climate Change & The Media: To Angliss, journalists spending column inches, air time, or even cyber-seconds on the Muller report 'wasted precious time and energy on something that wasn't news in the first place .... By treating a PR stunt (and Muller's second, at that) as news, they've revealed that they can be diverted from whatever it is they're working on to chase after the latest shiny object'
- UK Guardian: Richard Muller Now Controls Your Mind: Claim: ‘Climate change study forces sceptical scientists to change minds’
- Muller rips Hansen’s extreme weather claims: Muller said that there is ‘not even a hint’ that global warming can be specifically linked to those events’
Muller: 'I agree with his (Hansen's) findings, but I think he presents it in a way that greatly exaggerates what the result is' -- 'When he says expect more heat waves, what that means is, if you were used to a heat wave of 101 degrees, now you'll have a heat wave of 102'

The New Yorker mag claims the refrigerator is ‘an Agent of Climate Catastrophe’
New Yorker claims air conditioners are the culprits “of our unfolding climate catastrophe.”
Rebuttal: The “notion that refrigeration is contributing to a ‘climate catastrophe’ is preposterous,” Steve Milloy of JunkScience.com noted. He also pointed out that the leftist “war against refrigeration” goes all the way back to the 1970s. The “war” has since resurfaced under President Joe Biden’s push for ratification of the radical Kigali Amendment, which seeks to phase out HFCs on a global scale to fight climate change.

CBS Mornings co-host Nate Burleson Ties Massive Volcano, Tsunami to ‘Climate Change’
CBS's Nate Burleson ties the underwater volcanic eruption and 50-foot-high tsunami in Tonga to climate change: "We talk about climate change quite a bit. These stories are a harsh reality of what we're going through and we have to do our part because these are more frequent." ...And, when called out, he denied having said something untrue and may have copy-pasted the first result from Google Images of “volcano climate change.”

‘Unprecedentedly few’: ‘2021 had the fewest global hurricanes in the satellite era’ & 2nd fewest strong hurricanes since 1980
. Bjorn Lomborg: "Hurricanes in 2021 were unprecedented — as in unprecedentedly few. Globally, 2021 had the fewest hurricanes ever in the satellite era (1980-2021). Globally, 2021 had some of the fewest strong hurricanes in the satellite era (1980-2021). With 16 strong (Cat 3+) hurricanes, 2021 was the second-lowest strong hurricane year since 1980. Globally, 2021 was a weak hurricane year. When measured by total energy (Accumulated Cyclone Energy), 2021 was the 9th weakest year. Did you see that reported anywhere?
Hurricanes in 2021 were weak and exceptionally few. But we heard lots about North Atlantic hurricanes. Conveniently, North Atlantic is the only basin where hurricanes are stronger. Does this leave us well-informed?. But we hear lots about names storms (hurricanes + weaker storms). Ever-easier to detect, so numbers keep climbing (4 of 2020s 30 named storms wouldn't have been named in 2000!). Not as relevant, but hey, scary numbers."
