  • Watch Now: Lord Monckton & Marc Morano at UN’s Rio Earth Summit in June 2012 expose phantom ‘climate refugees’ claims

    Morano at UN Press Conference on question about 'climate refugees: 'What a waste of time and effort to claim that man-made global warming is a human rights issue. It is silly, it is absurd, it is without scientific evidence...It is utter and complete misuse of time and resources and I would urge you to reconsider your own thoughts on this'

Flashback 2012 at UN Earth Summit in Rio: Climate Depot's Morano: 'We need to redefine sustainable development as oil, gas, coal' -- 'Failure is only option for this summit if you care about environment & poor people. Carbon based energy has been one of greatest liberators of mankind in history of our planet'

  • Ron Bailey: Rio +20 Earth Summit: ‘The End of International Environmentalism — Watching green ideology crash and burn’

    Reading Ronald Bailey's latest piece on Rio+20, it's hard to believe this is same man who wrote 'Gore has won global warming debate...On balance Gore gets it more right than wrong on the science'

    Attention Atlantic Mag's Megan McArdle: 2008: 'Ron changing his mind on global warming cemented my own transition to an AGW (i.e., man-made climate change) believer'

    World Cooling To Global Warming: ‘Increasingly, [warmists’] warnings of impending doom & their character attacks on their opponents will be performed before empty houses, as in Rio’

    'As the climate-change theory crumbles, expect its supporters to be more vocal in its defence, more insistent that the science is ironclad...Like the cultish followers of any faddish religion when it nears the end of its fashionableness, they will proclaim their views even more vociferously and denounce more forcefully all those who disagree'

And he is held hostage by the corporate agenda, which is still a primary obligation that politicians have, even though has been very successful at getting that grassroots support...he is held hostage by the same system within which Bush operated'

  • The Return of the Dead: Countering Species Extinction Claims – The most aggressive claims rest on shaky foundations’

    In the last 500 years only some 80 mammals are recorded as having gone extinct. In his book, More From Less, Andrew McAfee, a board member of HumanProgress.org, discusses how relatively rare recorded extinctions are – with some 530 across all species in the last five centuries. More importantly, he notes, the rate of extinction “appear[s] to have slowed down in recent decades; for example, no marine creatures have been recorded as extinct in the last fifty years.”

    Matt Ridley, another board member and frequent contributor to this site, argues that despite the human population doubling in the last half-century, “the extinction rate of wild species, especially in the most industrialized countries,” seems to have fallen rather than increased. While absence of evidence isn’t the same as evidence of absence, and there might be millions of unrecorded species in the world’s oceans and tropical forests, the most aggressive claims rest on shaky foundations.

  • CNN report buries this good news in paragraph 12 on polar bears: ‘They are doing quite well…Svalbard’s polar bear numbers do not appear to have decreased in the last 20 years’

    CNN: Jon Aars, a senior researcher at the Norwegian Polar Institute: "Polar bears are optimistic animals," Aars says. "It seems that they are quite resistant, and they are doing quite well despite the fact that they've lost a lot of their habitat." Despite the odds, Svalbard's polar bear numbers do not appear to have decreased in the last 20 years, he says.

  • Statistical politics: Prof. Mike Hulme on ‘politically charged’ climate baseline changes from 1961-1990 to 1991-2020: ‘In an instant; today, the world’s climate has ‘suddenly’ become nearly 0.5°C warmer’

    Hulme: "January  12021, a new World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) climatological standard normal came into effect. The ‘present-day’ climate will now formally be
    represented by the meteorological statistics of the period 1991-2020, replacing those from 1961-1990. National Meteorological Agencies in member states are instructed to issue new standard normals for observing stations and for associated climatological products. Climate will ‘change’, one might say, in an instant; today, the world’s climate has ‘suddenly’ become nearly 0.5°C warmer. It is somewhat equivalent to re-setting Universal Time or adjusting the exact definition of a metre." ...

    "So, what is the significance of the move to a new 1991-2020 WMO normal in January 2021? On the one hand, it is a pragmatic move to redefine ‘present-day’ climate for operational applications to that of the most recent 30-year period. On the other hand, it puts into play a third climatic baseline. Already existing is the ‘pre-industrial’ climate of the late nineteenth century and the ‘historic’ climate’ of 1961-1990, the latter about 0.3°C warmer than the former. And now there is the new ‘present-day’ climate of 1991-2020, in turn about 0.5°C warmer than the ‘historic climate’ of 1961-1990." ...

    "Combining a climatic tolerance of 2°C—or indeed 1.5°C—with a pre-industrial baseline yields a very different climate target than, say, using a 1986-2005 baseline, the period widely adopted by IPCC AR5 Working Group I as their analytical baseline. The choices of both baseline and tolerance are politically charged. They carry significant implications for historic liability for emissions (La Rovere et al., 2002), for policy design (Millar et al., 2017) and for possible reparations (Roberts & Huq, 2015)."

  • A new temperature pause? Zero global warming for 5 years 4 months

    Christopher Monckton: "At long last, following the warming effect of the El Niño of 2016, there are signs of a reasonably significant La Niña, which may well usher in another Pause in global temperature, which may even prove similar to the Great Pause that endured for 224 months from January 1997 to August 2015, during which a third of our entire industrial-era influence on global temperature drove a zero trend in global warming. ... As we come close to entering the la Niña, the trend in global mean surface temperature has already been zero for 5 years 4 months. 

    However, the new Pause is at a surface-temperature plateau 0.3 C° above the old Pause."
