  • Climate alarmism versus integrity at National Academies of Science

    "The fact that these Academies have become a servant of supranational political organizations such as IPCC shows how serious the crisis in climate science really is."

  • Epidemiologist Knut Wittkowski slams COVID lockdowns, social distancing, dismisses 2nd wave fears – Rips ‘science’ funded to support government policy

    Update: YouTube censors epidemiologist Knut Wittkowski for opposing lockdown

    ‘We could open up again and forget the whole thing’

    "Shutting down schools, driving the economy against the wall – there was no reason for it. The only reason that this nonsense now goes on and on, and people are inventing things like this ‘second wave’, which is going to force us to change society and never live again, is that the politicians are afraid of admitting an error."

    How did we get this so wrong? Wittkowski: "Governments did not have an open discussion, including economists, biologists and epidemiologists, to hear different voices. In Britain, it was the voice of one person – Neil Ferguson – who has a history of coming up with projections that are a bit odd. The government did not convene a meeting with people who have different ideas, different projections, to discuss his projection. If it had done that, it could have seen where the fundamental flaw was in the so-called models used by Neil Ferguson. His paper was published eventually, in medRxiv. The assumption was that one per cent of all people who became infected would die. There is no justification anywhere for that."

    'Science' funded to support government policy 
    Wittkowski: "They have the scientists on their side that depend on government funding. One scientist in Germany just got $500million from the government, because he always says what the government wants to hear. Scientists are in a very strange situation. They now depend on government funding, which is a trend that has developed over the past 40 years. Before that, when you were a professor at a university, you had your salary and you had your freedom. Now, the university gives you a desk and access to the library. And then you have to ask for government money and write grant applications. If you are known to criticise the government, what does that do to your chance of getting funded? It creates a huge conflict of interest."

  • Lord Monckton mocks AMS’ new climate statement: ‘Disinformation Statement’ calculated to provide…scientifically-outdated misrepresentation of pseudo-scientific issues’
    Lord Monckton mocks AMS’ new climate statement: ‘Disinformation Statement’ calculated to provide…scientifically-outdated misrepresentation of pseudo-scientific issues’

    American Meteorlogical Society Background: 'This statement provides a brief overview of why we want more money now, and why we will continue to want more money in the future. It is based on a highly-partisan selection from the scientific literature, presented as though science were based upon the ancient logical fallacy of argument from 'consensus'

  • Prof. Judith Curry: ‘This statement is worse than the previous AMS statement, and much worse than the statement by the Royal Society’

    Curry: 'Does this group of people inspire my confidence in making an assessment of climate change? In a word, NO...I suspect that there will be a lot of AMS members that are unhappy with this statement...Consensus statements get parroted without any actual intellectual examination. In this case, what is the point of the AMS statement. Apparently, to 'inform the public' on this controversial issue by appealing to the 'authority' of the society'

  • Climatologist Dr. Pielke Sr. on ‘Contradictory Statements By The American Meterological Society’ – Comments On The New Statement

    'It is clear that the new AMS Statement Climate Change is more advocacy by the leadership of the Society, than a balanced presentation of this subject. When evidence contradicts their advocacy role, they conveniently just ignore it'

  • 30 studies since March 2020 finding COVID lockdowns had little or no efficacy
  • Claim: ‘COVID-19 has shown what happens when we destroy nature’ – ‘Transformative change is urgently needed’ to avoid new pandemics

    Never let a crisis go to waste:

    WWF International: "Transformative change is urgently needed in our productive sectors, including our food systems, forestry, fisheries, infrastructure and extractives, and in the finance sector. These transformations need to happen fast if we are to limit risks of higher restoration costs and irreversible damage, including new pandemics and species extinction. We must transform our food systems so that enough healthy and nutritious food is produced for all, within planetary boundaries."

  • UN expects average person in 2100 to be 450% richer. ‘Climate change’ will theoretically reduce that to 434% richer
