Impressive Cold Grips As Planet Continues Its Warming Pause
The continuing global cooling and the start of the grand minimum require new targets in climate policy and a complete withdrawal from the previous warming madness.
After a complete failure by the IPCC climate models and the crazy assignment of CO2 as a pollutant, scientific reason must once again return to the climate discussion.

Exploring Jupiter’s moon Europa will be a treacherous task, it seems: scientists reckon its surface is covered in sharp towering icy daggers.
The menacing shards are known as penitentes, according to a paper published in Nature Geoscience this week. They normally form in dry cold climates, where sunlight melts snow and it sublimates straight to water vapor.

We were all taught at school that “nothing goes faster than the speed of light.” The originator of this maxim of modern physics is Albert Einstein. But new findings suggest this was an oversimplification.
We are all familiar with Einstein’s famous formula E = mc2. It has withstood the test of time – mostly. But the 20th century’s greatest scientist may have assumed too much in applying his equation for determining the velocity of an elementary particle.

Never underestimate the power of one determined person. What Carole Cadwalladr has done to Facebook and big data, and Edward Snowden has done to the state security complex, the young Kazakhstani scientist Alexandra Elbakyan has done to the multibillion-dollar industry that traps knowledge behind paywalls.

A few weeks ago climate scientists said climate change is making hurricanes slow down, stall and rain a lot like Florence. This week they say climate change causes fast-moving hurricanes like Michael.

Astronomers hoping to unlock the secret of the mysterious space phenomenon known as ‘fast radio bursts’ may have picked up some new clues thanks to the detection of a whopping 19 new signals. Since they were discovered 2001, these potent but brief radio pulses have puzzled scientists as they are particularly fleeting and seemingly occur at random aside from one spot in space where they are known to repeat.

A study that claims global warming could harm barley production and raise beer prices.
So is beer on the decline? Probably not very much. That’s because the study’s headline-grabbing results rely on a global warming projection that’s increasingly been called into question by experts.

Last month, as TCW reported, BBC news director Fran Unsworth issued a formal directive stating, in effect, that alarmism is proven and may not be challenged on the BBC airwaves.

Let me start by stating roundly that there is no such entity as a Global Temperature, so the idea that man can control a temperature that does not even exist is, simply put, Gibberish!
I know that this flies in the face of many scientists belonging to the Intercontinental Panel on Climate Change, who make great warnings that we must change our ways, and somehow restrict the rise of temperature to less that 2ºC., lest all sorts of terrible and unstoppable climatic events will happen within the next 12 years.

Everybody loves the Apocalypse. The idea of the end of the world, the more imminent the better, has always had enthusiastic popular support.
For as long as we’ve enjoyed life on this delightful Earth there has been a morose and righteous sect of one sort or another telling us the lease was nearly up, the doomsday bailiff coming any minute now to shut things down forever.

In the first 9½ months of 2018, 368 scientific papers have been published that cast doubt on the position that man-made CO2 emissions function as the climate’s fundamental control knob…or that otherwise serve to question the efficacy of climate models or the related “consensus” positions commonly endorsed by policymakers and mainstream media sources.

In Avengers: Infinity War, the villain Thanos said: “If life is left unchecked, life will cease to exist.”
Johns Hopkins University philosopher Travis N. Rieder apparently agrees as he views each new child as an environmental externality putting “irreparable stress on the planet” in a way that “exacerbates … the threat of catastrophic climate change.”
Similar ideas have been expressed by the likes of Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, and Bill Gates.

Medicinal cannabis oil will be available on prescription from next month, the Home Secretary has said today.
From November 1, UK laws will change to allow cannabis-based products for medicinal use to be prescribed in England, Scotland and Wales, according to a written statement from Sajid Javid.

Even though the latest UN IPCC report reveals that there is no evidence for increased severity of hurricanes, the fake news media relentless promotes the lie that storms are getting worse.
World-renowned skeptic climatologist Dr Tim Ball gives a no-nonsense radio interview to Canada’s CFRA radio host, Brian Lilley, to set the record straight.

So the very first sentence of the SR15 Summary for Policy Makers, after the Introduction, consists of a statement which is not well supported by the totality of the available scientific literature and which is at odds with the IPCC’s own findings in the AR5 Working Group 1 Report of just 5 years ago! Not a good start. —Climate Scepticism, 9 October 2018

Most commonly these days, the CCS acronym stands for: “Carbon Capture and Storage” – as you can surmise from the title above, I have a slightly different interpretation of “CCS.”
“Carbon” – whatever
Of course, all this nonsense of “Carbon” storage, etc. really refers to “carbon dioxide” and not to elemental carbon as in coal or diamonds, nor to carbon-containing fuels.
