It has been a difficult year for the icons of the climate alarmist industry. Wherever you look, from polar bears to penguins, numbers are on the rise.
And why won’t all those Himalayan glaciers hurry up and melt? Don’t they know there’s a climate war on?

New Facebook open discussion group invites readers to engage in discussion on the position that contemporary science isn’t really science but obedience.

Estimates suggest that 1 in 10 people do not have access to safe drinking water. As the world population continues to increase, so does the demand for clean drinking water.
Current water purification technologies typically involve micro- or ultrafiltration processes to remove undesired particles.

The Bureau of Meteorology has rewritten Australia’s temperature records for the second time in six years, greatly increasing the rate of warming since 1910 in its controversial homogenized data set.
Rather than the nation’s temperature [showing it has] increased by 1C over the past century, the bureau’s updated homogenized data set, known as ACORN-SAT, now shows mean temperatures have risen by 1.23C.

The planet Earth is cooling. The interglacial climate period that has kept us warm for the last several thousand years, allowing civilization to rise and flourish, is over. Earth is about to return to the deep-freeze conditions of the last ice age that ended some 12,000 years ago when all of Canada and much of Europe were covered by the sort of thick continental glaciers that today blanket remote Greenland and Antarctica.

This story could very well be headlined: “When the internet came to Novaya Zemlya.”Locals started to post photos and video of the more than 50 polar bears in their neighborhood.
Over the last week, social media, as well as online newspapers globally, have gone mad over the news coming out from one of the remotest towns on the planet, the closed military settlement of Belushaya Guba.

Two tough, resilient, NASA spacecraft have been orbiting Earth for the past six and a half years, flying repeatedly through a hazardous zone of charged particles around our planet called the Van Allen radiation belts.
The twin Van Allen Probes, launched in August 2012, have confirmed scientific theories and revealed new structures and processes at work in these dynamic regions. Now, they’re starting a new and final phase in their exploration.
