SPOTLIGHT: After the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report was released in 2007, its dramatic findings of species extinction were repeatedly emphasized by chairman Rajendra Pachauri.

One of the people who oversees an Indigenous hunt of polar bears says the population is doing well, despite heart-wrenching photos online suggesting some bears are starving.

Southwest Research Institute scientists posit a violent birth of the tiny Martian moons Phobos and Deimos, but on a much smaller scale than the giant impact thought to have resulted in the Earth-Moon system. Their work shows that an impact between proto-Mars and a dwarf-planet-sized object likely produced the two moons, as detailed in a paper published today in Science Advances.

Many diabetics already know about the benefits of a low-glycemic diet and the need for regular exercise, but why haven’t they heard about turmeric, one of the world’s most extensively researched anti-diabetic plants?

Readers who follow climate science are probably aware of how sunlight initiates a complicated chain of thermal events. A well-known depiction of this is the old 1997 chart (above), which we’ll use here for the sake of visual clarity.
But let’s touch on some other considerations beforehand.

You would really have to search far and wide to find a group more clueless than the Climate Alarmist Cult. Skeptics are skeptics because they don’t join the herd, they aren’t part of the Consensus, they took the time to actually look at the data and research and reach their own conclusion.

IT hasn’t been the best start to the year for the global warming doom industry. Three consecutive “Beasts From The East” caused by super-cold Arctic air have resulted in 48,000 non-heat-related deaths in the UK alone, as the 2017/18 Northern Hemisphere mega-winter rages on well into spring.

We know that there has been massive melting ice, shrinking ice sheets, a dark zone that is a huge problem, that the melting is accelerating, faster than at any time in the last 400 years.

We all know “this is scary” and due to climate change and could raise sea levels by 20 feet. And that’s just the news stories in the last two weeks.

From astronomers to futuristic dreamers, the inter-stellar space is the real frontier – for many centuries already.

Anyone who’s looking at the firmament on a clear summer night is likely to agree. There is a “world” of stars, planets, moons, galaxies, and a host of other — mostly unfathomable — objects out there. One can’t deny that.

The Swiss Basler Zeitung (BZ) reported on April 13, 2018, that a new research institute opened at Lake Aegeri in Switzerland last year: the Institute for Hydrography, Geo-ecology and Climate Sciences (IFHGK), which will focus on the natural causes of climate change.

Researchers have found lakes that may shed new light on icy worlds in our Solar System. High in the Canadian Arctic, two subglacial bodies of water have been spotted beneath over 500 metres of ice. The water has an estimated maximum temperature of -10.5C, and would need to be very salty to avoid freezing.

In addition to the case of Aden, discussed in Parker & Ollier (2017) and Parker & O’Sullivan (2018), that is only one of the many where the data proposed by the PSMSL are not trustworthy, another example recently added to the long list is Guam (Parker & Ollier, 2018).

It’s commonly accepted today that our spherical planet absorbs only ¼ of the radiant energy that the Sun imparts because a sphere has four times the surface area as a flat disk facing the Sun.
