There is nothing coincidental about common déjà vu features of a CO2 climate crisis-premised war on fossil fuels and a hysterically-hyped sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission acid rain environmental calamity a half-century ago.
Last week, Duke University announced it would pay the US government US$112.5 million to settle claims that fraudulent data were used in dozens of research-grant applications.
This is a communal punishment for an institution where the overwhelming majority of scientists are honest, hard-working individuals seeking knowledge for the good of humanity.

European scientists looking for some of the oldest ice on the planet have homed in on a particular spot in Antarctica, where they will drill more than 1.5 miles (2.7 kilometers) below the surface of the ice.

There’s a new addition to the family tree: an extinct species of human that’s been found in the Philippines. It’s known as Homo luzonensis, after the site of its discovery on the country’s largest island Luzon.
Pakistan set snowfall records this winter, with chief meteorologist of the PMD, Khalid Malik, saying more regions than ever before received 50+ inches (4.2 feet) of powder. And there’s still no sign of spring.
For five months in mid 2017, Emily Mason did the same thing every day. Arriving to her office at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, she sat at her desk, opened up her computer, and stared at images of the Sun — all day, every day.
As climatologists increasingly, albeit grudgingly, concede climate sensitivity to carbon dioxide approaches zero, a top Australian scientist exposes gross errors in the UN IPCC’s claims about ‘greenhouse gases.’
There is overwhelming evidence that ’greenhouse gases’ do not drive climate change. But some air heads still think a tiny amount of carbon dioxide has more power than the sun.
We often hear how the climate is changing everywhere, like in California. Listening to the media we get the impression that the Golden State is drying out and risks burning up before heavy rains hit.
The new millenium is seeing revolutionary change in our understanding of carbon dioxide (CO2). Once the demon global warming gas, scientists are increasingly accepting they got that wrong. We examine some of the astonishing developments.
