Here is the most important takeaway fact: Earth Cannot Be Warmed by Its Own Radiation.
Greenhouse-warming theory assumes that mean global surface temperatures rise when greenhouse gases in Earth’s atmosphere absorb infrared radiation from Earth. This rise in temperature is thought to be a few degrees Celsius when the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide is doubled.

How often do we hear claims that there are more hurricanes than there used to be, or that they are now much more powerful? Such claims are bolstered by 24-hour news coverage, featuring dramatic images of extreme weather.

“Over the past decades, atoll islands exhibited no widespread sign of physical destabilization in the face of sea-level rise.
“88.6% of islands were either stable or increased in area, while only 11.4% contracted.

It’s hard to believe that we’re just shy of ten years since contents of the so-called “Climategate” folder revealed the fraudulence of the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) scare.

A collage of 50 lionfish was supposed to dampen questions over concerns around the academic rigor of former star James Cook University research student Oona Lonnstedt. Instead, the colorful photograph has prompted only more questions.

Ladies and Gentlemen, here is a true story about the dire censorship in peer-reviewed science journals. Maybe you remember the paper I wrote with Professor Clifford Ollier? [Parker, A. & Ollier, C.D., 2017, IS THE SEA LEVEL STABLE AT ADEN, YEMEN?, Earth Syst. Environ 1: 18. Doi:10.1007/s41748-017-0020-z]

Global warming has not caused an increase in the frequency or intensity of hurricanes, a study published by the Global Warming Policy Foundation has confirmed.

Environmentalists first predicted impending climate disaster in the 1970s, but they didn’t call it global warming. Back then, it was “Global Cooling” that would end life on earth as we knew it.

A quirk of personality which resulted in one of modern science’s greatest intellects not making a sufficiently powerful statement is found with Erwin Schrödinger’s attempt to refute the Copenhagen Interpretation of quantum mechanics with his paradox of the cat.
I mean it is all a very cute idea, a very nice little silly idea of no particular consequence to any standers-by.

NASA’s newest planet-hunting spacecraft has already spied and confirmed a third world outside our Solar System — just three months into the vehicle’s science operations.
This newly discovered planet, or exoplanet, is relatively close by, orbiting a small star just 53 light-years away. And that means we may be able to study this world more extensively, to figure out what its atmosphere might hold.

At last count, there were at least 8.3 billion tons of plastic in the world. Much of it gets discarded and eventually ends up in our oceans.
Researchers are looking for ways to collect that trash in the sea using a variety of technologies but the overall consensus is that using less plastic, or at least catching the trash at the source, would be much better than filtering it out afterwards.

This has been posted before, but repetition is one recipe for success. Especially one so simple.
Climate alarmism is based, of course, upon its alternative conception of a greenhouse effect from that of an actual real greenhouse.
